متن کاملCournot Competition under Uncertainty∗
We analyze Cournot competition under demand uncertainty. We show that under rather general assumptions, the game has no asymmetric equilibria but multiple symmetric equilibria. Multiplicity is caused by the requirement of nonnegative prices and remains an issue also for simple demand specifications, such as the linear case. We then show that uniqueness of equilibrium is guaranteed if uncertaint...
متن کاملWelfare losses under Cournot competition
In a market for a homogeneous good where firms are identical, compete in quantities and produce with constant returns, the percentage of welfare losses (PWL) is small with as few as five competitors for a class of demand functions which includes linear and isoelastic cases. We study markets with positive fixed costs and asymmetric firms. We provide exact formulae of PWL and robust constructions...
متن کاملCournot Competition and Endogenous Firm Size∗
We model the firm as a type of artificial neural network that plays a repeated Cournot game. Each period the firm must learn to map environmental signals to both demand parameters and it’s rival’s output choice. In this paper, though, this Cournot game is in the ’background,’ as we focus on the endogenous adjustment of network size. We investigate the long-run behavior of firm/network size as a...
