Abstract
It has been observed that almost anyone is acquainted with almost anyone else through only a few intermediary links. This has been known as the small-world phenomenon. In this script we investigate this observation from a theoretical stand-point by imagining each individual as a greedy agent. We show that small-world properties emerge naturally when individuals pay for links to manage a pull from the population.
