During my rewrite, I accidentally misstated the concept the OP is asking for in the new *title*. Corrected.
Aug 17, 2017 at 9:43 comment added Jon Noel @PeterHeinig, to me, that paper doesn't seem to be relevant. I've added a link to a more relevant one in my answer.

I think the form of the OP was an unbearable mess, yet I think the substance of the OP is legitimate for MO. I therefore *rewrote* the OP from scratch, to what I think is usual form. This summary form is too small to document the changes. I think that the meaning of the OP was not changed at all.
Aug 17, 2017 at 8:20 comment added Peter Heinig Dear @Ozzy: a published article extremely relevant to your question (though not explicitly addressing precisely what you seem to be asking for) is Daniela Kühn, Deryk Osthus: Partitions of graphs with high minimum degree or connectivity. Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B. Volume 88, Issue 1, May 2003, Pages 29-43
Aug 17, 2017 at 8:16 comment added Peter Heinig Dear @Ozzy: I think there were so many infelicities and malapropisms in the original formulation of the OP that a complete (meaning-preserving) rewrite of the OP was in order. If you have reasons to prefer some of your formulations, please say so, and/or roll back. Documenting all my changes would get too long: only so much: 'network' tends to be used in a specific, quite different sense nowadays, 'agents' is not usual graph theoretic language. There were logical issues too with the OP, too.

Aug 16, 2017 at 21:03 comment added Gerhard Paseman Try the following. Set G to G_0. Given G_n, find and remove all the vertices (and corresponding edges) in G_n of lowest degree, and call what's left G_{n+1}. For many G, the progression of graphs G_n will see an increase in the graph parameter minimal degree. I think when this parameter hits k, G_n will be your S_k. You might look at degree sequences and processes of building or deconstructing graphs. Gerhard " Doesn't Know Technical Graph Terminology" Paseman, 2017.08.16.
