Complementary Platforms
Reynaerts, Jo; Van Cayseele, Patrick - 2007
We introduce an analytical framework close to the canonical model of platfirm competition investigated by Rochet and Tirole (2006) to study pricing decisions in two-sided markets when two or more platfirms are needed simultaneously for the successful completion of a transaction. The model...

Complementary Platforms
Van Cayseele, Patrick J. G. - 2014
This paper studies pricing decisions in two-sided markets when platforms are needed simultaneously for the successful completion of a transaction. The model is a natural extension of the Cournot-Ellet theory of complementary monopoly featuring clear cut asymmetric single- and multihoming...

Prediction and identification in two-sided markets
Boik, Andre - 2018
correlated. I show that the standard "one-sided" model of complements is a special case of the two-sided model, and that it … generates those same hallmark features of two-sided markets. The model of complements also performs well in predicting price … common outcome in two-sided markets. The main cost to using a model of complements to estimate cross-group effects in a two …

Two-sided markets with negative externalities
Reisinger, Markus - 2004
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...

Imperfect substitutes for perfect complements : solving the anticommons problem
Alvisi, Matteo; Carbonara, Emanuela - 2010
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 …

Network Markets and Consumer Coordination
Ambrus, Attila; Argenziano, Rossella - 2004
This paper analyzes pricing decisions and competition in network markets, assuming that groups of consumers can coordinate their choices when it is in their interest, if coordination does not require communication. It is shown that multiple asymmetric networks can coexist in equilibrium. A...

Platform Intermediation in a Market for Differentiated Products
Galeotti, Andrea; Moraga-Gonzalez, Jose Luis - 2008
We study a two-sided market where a platform attracts firms selling differentiated products and buyers interested in those products. In the unique subgame perfect equilibrium of the game, the platform fully internalizes the network externalities present in the market and firms and consumers all...

Unique Equilibrium in Two-Part Tariff Competition between Two-Sided Platforms
Reisinger, Markus - 2010
Two-sided market models in which platforms compete via two-part tariffs, i.e. a subscription and a per-transaction fee, are often plagued by a continuum of equilibria. This paper augments existing models by allowing for heterogeneous rading behavior of agents on both sides. We show that this...

Should utility-reducing media advertising be taxed?
Kind, Hans Jarle; Köthenbürger, Marko; Schjelderup, … - 2009
Empirical evidence suggests that people dislike ads in media products like TV programs. In such situations standard economic theory prescribes that the advertising volume can be optimally reduced by levying a tax on ads. However, making use of recent advances in the theory of Industrial...
