Abstract I model dynamic product design along price and non-price dimensions by a firm in a market with positive network externalities between consumers. In the case of a usage fee, I provide conditions under which the steady state (SS) is unique and show that the introductory price is negative...

Consumer reviews may have perverse effects, including delays of adoption in new products of unknown quality when consumers are boundedly rational. When consumers fail to take into account that past reviewers self-select to purchases, a monopolist may manipulate the posterior beliefs of consumers...

In this note, departing from the traditional static and fully rational economic agent setting, I study a dynamic model of a boundedly rational monopolist who, in a partially known environment, follows a rule of thumb learning process. Instead of considering the classical differential model with...
