This chapter provides a literature overview on the use of input-output (I-O) analysis in efficiency and productivity measurements. The exposition covers both the traditional I-O modeling framework and its extension to frontier-based I-O approach that adds elements of frontier analysis into the...

In this article we study patterns of vertical product differentiation in a multi-product monopoly using a random utility model. Prior research shows that applying such a model in a multi-product setting implies symmetric patterns of product differentiation in which all product variants of a...

This article analyses the capacity-then-price game for a duopoly market. We add to the literature by explicitly taking product differentiation into account. We study the impact of capacity costs, demand uncertainty, and vertical and horizontal product differentiation on equilibrium capacities,...

The choice of specialization affects firms' brand perception by consumers and it is of crucial importance for their profitability in competitive markets. We model how firms choose specialization through a spatial non-localized competition framework that naturally allows for markets where not all...
