In a setting of R&D co-opetition we study, by using an all-pay auction approach, howcollaboration affects strategic decisions during a patent contest, and how the latter influences thepossible collaboration network structures the firms can hope to form. The all pay auctionapproach allows us to...

We adopt the notion of von Neumann-Morgenstern farsightedly stable sets to predict which matchings are possibly stable when agents are farsighted in one-to-one matching problems. We provide the characterization of von Neumann-Morgenstern farsightedly stable sets: a set of matchings is a von...
