We offer a new perspective on games of irreversible investment under uncertainty in continuous time. The basis is a particular approach to solve the involved stochastic optimal control problems which allows to establish existence and uniqueness of an oligopolistic open loop equilibrium in a very...

We take a general perspective on capital accumulation games with open loop strategies, as they have been formalized by Back and Paulsen (Rev. Financ. Stud. 22, 4531-4552, 2009). With such strategies, the optimization problems of the individual players are of the monotone follower type....

This paper studies the behavior of two firms after a new investment opportunity arises. Examples of such an investment are technology adoption or market entry. Firms either invest immediately or wait until market uncertainty is resolved. Two types of separating equilibrium are possible when...
