| Research Abstract |
this is a report by several researchers. The main findings contained in those papers are as follows.
Kobayasi reformulates the Bonacich centrality in terms of unfinite series matrix, which reduces ambiguous aspects of the original concept. Yamaguchi reviews conceptual family of Bonacich-like centrality and describes characteristics of each concept very clearly. Matsuda pointed out that the weighted evaluating method of important others is not enoughly formulated from the view of Bonacich-like centarlity. And he suggested an original differential equational model of centrality. He generalizes the recursive-like centrality in terms of infinite series. Inoue discusses the meaning of Bonacich centrality from the analogical view of vibration mechanics. Seiyama gives the theory of network power in terms of Shaplay-value of negotiation and gives an integrated view for different experimental research. Seiyama, in another paper, reformulated the Coleman's interaction model. Arai links the rent theory with network exchange theory and gives the theory of unequal exchange on international relations. Sato presents the theory of network generating from the game theoretic view with trust and opportunity. Yasuda tests the power equilibrium process on social networks by using the personal computer network data. Onishi analyzes the data of cognitive networks. Misumi speculates the Blau's theory of marriaging affected by social structures. Finally, Inoue presents a discussion about the framework of social network research and ideology.
