A SDA graph with homophily parameter α = 8 for 15 agents with wealth values drawn from \({\mathcal{N}}(\mu =10,\sigma =1)\). B Toy example of community detection via label propagation. Colors correspond to the result of applying the label propagation algorithm. However, as described in this section, we consider an agent to be a member of its own community as well as a member of any community that agents that it is adjacent to are part of. Hence, node 1 belongs to the blue and orange communities, node 2 belongs to the orange and green communities, and node 3 belongs only to the green community.
