Understanding perpetual R&D races
Breitmoser, Yves; Tan, Jonathan H. W.; Zizzo, Daniel John - 2008
This paper presents an experimental study of dynamic indefinite horizon R&D races with uncertainty and multiple prizes. The theoretical predictions are highly sensitive: small parameter changes determine whether technological competition is sustained, or converges into a market structure with an...

Exploration in Teams and the Encouragement Effect : Theory and Experimental Evidence
von Essen, Emma; Huysentruyt, Marieke; Miettinen, Topi - 2019
This paper analyzes a two-person, two-stage model of sequential exploration, where both information and payoff externalities exist, and tests the derived hypotheses in the laboratory. We theoretically show that even when agents are self-interested and perfectly rational, the information...
