Ranking supply function and cournot equilibria in a differentiated product duopoly with demand uncertainty
Sağlam, İsmail - In: Games 9 (2018) 3/60, pp. 1-13
In this paper, we provide a welfare ranking for the equilibria of the supply function and quantity competitions in a differentiated product duopoly with demand uncertainty. We prove that the expected consumer surplus is always higher under the supply function competition, irrespective of whether...

Tacit collusion under fairness and reciprocity
İriş, Doruk; Santos-Pinto, Luís - In: Games 4 (2013) 1, pp. 50-65
This paper departs from the standard profit-maximizing model of firm behavior by assuming that firms are motivated in part by personal animosity–or respect–towards their competitors. A reciprocal firm responds to unkind behavior of rivals with unkind actions (negative reciprocity), while at...

Ad-valorem taxes, prices and content diversification in the news market
Pires, Armando José Garcia - In: Games 14 (2023) 2, pp. 1-28
In this paper, we look at two research questions. First, can lower ad-valorem taxes, on the selling of news and on the selling of advertising, conduce to lower prices in the media sector? Second, can lower ad-valorem taxes stimulate firms to increase the diversity of content that they offer? The...

Network externalities and downstream collusion under asymmetric costs : a note
Lee, Jen Yao; Fan, Chen-Chia; Tsai, Chien-Shu - In: Games 14 (2023) 2, pp. 1-11
This paper considers the collusive stability of downstream competition in a vertical market with network externalities and cost asymmetry. A dynamic collusion game is constructed, and backward induction is employed to solve the subgame perfect Nash equilibrium. We show that larger network...

Price and quantity competition under vertical pricing
Basak, Debasmita - In: Games 14 (2023) 4, pp. 1-8
We consider a vertically related market where one quantity-setting and another price-setting downstream firm negotiate the terms of a two-part tariff contract with an upstream input supplier. In contrast to the traditional belief, we show that the price-setting firm produces a higher output and...
