Extreme adverse selection arises when private information has unbounded support, and market breakdown occurs when no trade is the only equilibrium outcome. We study extreme adverse selection via the limit behavior of a financial market as the support of private information converges to an...

This paper deals with deterministic dynamic pricing and advertising differential games which are stylized models of special durable-good oligopoly markets. We analyze infinite horizon models with constant price and advertising elasticities of demand in the cases of symmetric and asymmetric...

In this paper we analyze a stochastic dynamic advertising and pricing model with isoelastic demand. The state space is discrete, time is continuous and the planning horizon is allowed to be finite or infinite. A dynamic version of the Dorfman-Steiner identity will be derived. Explicit...

In Sethi et al. introduced a particular new-product adoption model. They determine optimal advertising and pricing policies of an associated deterministic infinite horizon discounted control problem. Their analysis is based on the fact that the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB)...

Relatedness and synergy affect the selection pressure on cooperation and altruism. Although early work investigated the effect of these factors independently of each other, recent efforts have been aimed at exploring their interplay. Here, we contribute to this ongoing synthesis in two distinct...
