Abstract
⺠We consider network formation game with prohibitive cost of redundant links. ⺠The Price of Anarchy (PoA) in the static game is shown to be unbounded. ⺠The PoA of a network selected by best-response (BR) dynamics is also unbounded. ⺠We introduce a local two-stage BR dynamics that select networks with bounded PoA. ⺠Convergence rate of these dynamics is polynomial for two subfamilies of models.
