Kosfeld, M.; Huck, S. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1998

We study a society of agents where individual incentives conflict with collective ones and thus individual utility maximization leads to inefficient outcomes. We assume that there is no functioning central institution which can control individual behavior. Instead, we analyze a system of what we...

Collusion in Experimental Bertrand Duopolies with Convex Costs : The Role of Information and Cost Asymmetry

Argenton, Cédric; Müller, Wieland - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2009

We report the results of a series of experimental Bertrand duopolies where firms have convex costs. Theoretically these duopolies are characterized by a multiplicity of Nash equilibria. Using a 2x2 design, we analyze price choices in symmetric and asymmetric markets under 2 information...

Naked Exclusion : Towards a Behavioral Approach to Exclusive Dealing

boone, jan; Müller, Wieland; Suetens, Sigrid - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2009

We report experimental results on exclusive dealing inspired by the literature on "naked exclusion". Our key findings are: First, exclusion of a more efficient entrant is a widespread phenomenon in lab markets. Second, allowing incumbents to discriminate between buyers increases exclusion rates...

Derivation of Monotone Decision Models from Non-Monotone Data

Daniëls, H.A.M.; Velikova, M.V. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2003

The objective of data mining is the extraction of knowledge from databases. In practice, one often encounters difficulties with models that are constructed purely by search, without incorporation of knowledge about the domain of application.In economic decision making such as credit loan...

Environmental Catastrophes Under Time-inconsistent Preferences

Michielsen, T.O. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2013

Abstract I analyze optimal natural resource use in an intergenerational model with the risk of a catastrophe. Each generation maximizes a weighted sum of discounted utility (positive) and the probability that a catastrophe will occur at any point in the future (negative). The model generates...

Link formation in cooperative situations

Dutta, B.; van den Nouweland, C.G.A.M.; Tijs, S.H. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1995

In this paper we study the endogenous formation of cooperation structures or communication graphs between players in a superadditive TU game. For each cooperation structure that is formed, the payoffs to the players are determined by an exogenously given solution. We model the process of...
