This paper analyses a two-sided market in which two platforms compete against each other. One side, the advertisers, exerts a negative externality on the ther side, the users. It is shown that if platforms can charge advertisers only, a higher degree of competition for users can lead to higher...

An integrated monopoly, where all complements forming a composite good are offered by a single firm, is typically … competition in the market for each complement. We present a model with two perfect complements and introduce n imperfect … substitutes for one and then for both complements. We prove that, if one complementary good is produced by a monopolist, and if …
