We analyze the effects of consumers' limited attention on welfare in a model of horizontal product differentiation. We present a novel approach of modeling limited attention: an attention radius. Each consumer only notices goods that are within her attention radius, i.e., goods that are...

We analyze the effects of consumers' limited attention on welfare in a model of horizontal product differentiation. We present a novel approach of modeling limited attention: an attention radius. Each consumer only notices goods that are within her attention radius, i.e., goods that are...

This article focuses on the location decision of firms when competing in a spatial Cournot duopoly. Our original contribution is that firms are dependent on a natural resource input, which is assumed to be located in one of the extremes of the market, to be able to produce the output sought by...

In spatial competition firms are likely to be uncertain about demand when launching products either because of shifting demographics or of asymmetric information about preferences. This paper considers two types of prices: those set on prior information and flexible prices which adjust across...

In spatial competition iuml;B01rms are likely to be uncertain about consumer locations when launching products either because of shifting demographics or of asymmetric information about preferences. Realistically distributions of consumer locations should be allowed to vary over states and need...

The paper models duopolistic competition in so called monotowns: towns with one big factory where most of the citizens are employed. Workers after job go to one of the competitor shops, buy the product and bring it home. Nash equilibrium is found for linear and two-dimensional cases. The...

This paper considers the effect of the internalization of the costs of point source pollution and congestion by Cournot duopolists in a linear city. The central agglomeration of Cournot duopolists in a linear city is well known. However, this paper shows that even under the condition in which...
