In a linear model of cost reducing R&D/Cournot competition, firm asymmetry is shown to be sustainable as subgame perfect Nash equilibrium with R&D competition only if the productivity of research is sufficiently large relative to the benefits from imitation. In such a case, industry-wide cost...

We provide a theory of how RPM facilitate upstream cartels absent any information asymmetries using a model with … manufacturers if they collude. We thus provide a novel theory of harm for resale price maintenance when manufacturers collude and … illustrate the fit of this theory in various competition policy cases. …
