چکیده

We formulate a dynamic facility location model for a …rm locating on a discrete network. It is assumed that this locating …rm will act as the leader …rm in an industry characterized by Stackelberg leader-follower competition. The …rm’s I competitors are assumed to act as Cournot …rms and are each assumed to operate under the assumption of zero conjectural variation with respect to their I 1 Cournot competitors. Using sensitivity analysis of variational inequalities within a hierachical mathematical programming approach, we develop reaction function based dynamic models to optimize the Stackelberg …rm’s location decision. In the second half of this paper, we use these models to illustrate through a numerical example the enhanced insights yielded by a reaction based, dynamic approach

On the Endogeneity of Cournot - Nash and Stackelberg Equilibria : Games of Accumulation * RUNNING TITLE : Games of Accumulation

We characterize equilibria of games with two properties: (i) Agents have the opportunity to adjust their strategic variable after their initial choices and before payoffs occur; but (ii) they can only add to their initial amounts. The equilibrium set consists of just the Cournot-Nash outcome, one or both Stackelberg outcomes, or a continuum of points including the Cournot-Nash outcome and one o...

Partial Cooperative Equilibria: Existence and Characterization

We study the solution concepts of partial cooperative Cournot-Nash equilibria and partial cooperative Stackelberg equilibria. The partial cooperative Cournot-Nash equilibrium is axiomatically characterized by using notions of rationality, consistency and converse consistency with regard to reduced games. We also establish sufficient conditions for which partial cooperative Cournot-Nash equilibr...

An Evolutionary Analysis of Bagwell s Example 1

In a recent paper Bagwell (1995) pointed out that only the Cournot outcome, but not the Stackelberg outcome, can be supported by a pure Nash equilibrium when actions of the Stackelberg leader are observed with the slightest error. The Stackelberg outcome, however, remains close to the outcome of a mixed equilibrium. We compare the predictions in various classes of evolutionary and learning proc...
