Product differentiation and entry timing in a continuous time spatial competition model
We extend the well-known spatial competition model (d’Aspremont et al., 1979) to a continuous time model in which two firms compete in each instance. Our focus is on the entry timing decisions of firms and their optimal locations. We demonstrate that the leader has an incentive to locate closer to the centre to delay the follower’s entry, leading to a non-maximum differentiation outcome. We als...
متن کاملVertical Product Differentiation, Entry-Deterrence Strategies, and Entry Qualities
We analyze the entry of a new product into a vertically differentiated market in which an entrant and an incumbent compete in prices. Here the entry-deterrence strategies of the incumbent firm rely on “limit qualities.” With a sequential choice of quality, a quality-dependent marginal production cost, and a fixed entry cost, we relate the entry-quality decision and the entry-deterrence strategi...
متن کاملDynamic Pricing Competition with Strategic Customers Under Vertical Product Differentiation
We consider dynamic pricing competition between two firms offering vertically differentiated products to strategic customers who are inter-temporal utility maximizers. Our model can be viewed as a competitive version of the classical model of Besanko and Winston (1990). We show that there exists a Markov perfect equilibrium (MPE) in mixed strategy in the game. Furthermore, we give a simple cond...

متن کاملVertical Product Differentiation, Network Competition and Regulation of Connectivity
Abstract: In this paper competition between two network firms is analysed under two alternative regulatory regimes: a global connectivity regulation (GCR) and an efficient component pricing regulation (ECPRe). Whereas a GCR imposes a full quality of reciprocal interconnection, firms will choose vertical product differentiation in order to lower price competition, while under a ECPRe they will c...
