Network connectivity under node failure. (English) Zbl 1398.91018

Summary: We examine a noncooperative model of network formation where players may stop functioning. We identify conditions under which Nash and efficient networks will remain connected after the loss of \(k\) nodes by introducing the notion of \(k\)-node super connectivity.
