Dear All,
I hope this email finds you well.


I am working on developing a mathematical programming
model for determining the most influential nodes in social
networks for maximizing the diffusion of information. I did
developed this model and submitted the related paper.

So, as one of the other part of my PhD research, I am working
on determining the most influential nodes for maximizing the
diffusion of information in a COMPETITIVE situation. It means
that I want to work on a given society with two social agents.
Each of agents desires to maximize the diffusion of desirable
information on the society with same nodes. ( such as
Allon's work 2010)

I want to model this problem using classical games such as
Clonel Blotto or some one else.
I was wondering if you could let me know your invaluable
comments about my research problem and any similar works in the literature.
