Strategic experimentation : the case of poisson bandits

Cripps, Martin; Keller, Godfrey; Rady, Sven - 2002

This paper studies a game of strategic experimentation in which the players have access to two-armed bandits where the … is an inefficiently low level of experimentation in any equilibrium where the players use stationary Markovian strategies … equilibria depends on the way players share the burden of experimentation among them. We show that at least for relatively …

Price Dispersion and Learning in a Dynamic Differentiated-Goods Duopoly

Keller, Godfrey; Rady, Sven - 2001

We study the evolution of prices set by duopolists who are uncertain about the perceived degree of product differentiation. Customers sometimes view the products as close substitutes, sometimes as highly differentiated. As the informativeness of the quantities sold increases with the price...
