Does competition solve the hold-up problem?

Felli, Leonardo; Roberts, Kevin - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2001

In an environment in which both buyers and sellers can undertake match specific investments, the presence of market competition for matches may solve hold-up and coordination problems generated by the absence of complete contingent contracts. In particular, this paper shows that when matching is...

Follower payoffs in symmetric duopoly games

von Stengel, Bernhard - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2010

This paper compares the leader and follower payoff in a duopoly game, as they arise in sequential play, with the Nash payoff in simultaneous play. If the game is symmetric, has a unique symmetric Nash equilibrium, and players' payoffs are monotonic in the opponent's choice along their own best...

Cartel stability under capacity constraints: the traditional view restored

Nocke, Volker - London School of Economics (LSE) - 1999

The existence of a negative relationship between cartel stability and the level of excess capacity in an industry has for a long time been the dominant view in the traditional IO literature. Recent supergame-theoretic contributions (e.g. Brock and Scheinkman, 1985) appear to show that this view...

A general analysis of sequential merger games with an application to cross-border mergers

Salvo, Alberto - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2004

This paper seeks to uncover why the pattern of equilibria in sequential merger games of a certain type is similar across a fairly wide class of models much studied in the literature. By developing general conditions characterising each element of the set of possible equilibria, I show that the...
