Abstract
During the last few years various models of networks [1,2] have become a powerful tool for analysis of complex systems in such distant fields as Internet [3], biology [4], social groups [5], ecology [6] and public transport [7]. Modeling behavior of economical agents is a challenging issue that has also been studied from a network point of view. The examples of such studies are models of financial networks [8], supply chains [9, 10], production networks [11], investment networks [12] or collective bank bankrupcies [13, 14]. Relations between different companies have been already analyzed using several methods: as networks of shareholders [15], networks of correlations between stock prices [16] or networks of board directors [17]. In several cases scaling laws for network characteristics have been observed.
