This paper studies optimal experimentation by a monopolist who faces an unknown demand curve subject to random changes … optimal policy on these parameters is discontinuous. One regime is characterised by extreme experimentation and good tracking … of the prevailing demand curve, the other by moderate experimentation and poor tracking. Moreover, in the latter regime …

We study a game of strategic experimentation with two-armed bandits where the risky arm distributes lump-sum payoffs … continuation values at sufficiently optimistic beliefs yet take turns playing the risky arm before all experimentation stops. Owing …
