Abstract: Patent applications contain citations which are similar to but
different from those found in published scientific papers. In particular,
patent citations are governed by legal rules.  Moreover, a large fraction
of citations are made not by the patent inventor, but by a patent examiner
during the application procedure.  Using a patent database which contains
the patent citations, assignees and inventors, we have applied network
analysis and built network models. After giving a brief overview of recent
developments in network theory, I will discuss our latest results on
patent citation networks.
