Information Transmission and Preference Similarity

Blume, A. - Department of Economics, Tippie College of Business - 1997

This paper proposes as a solution concept for games sets of Nash equilibria that are stable against replacement by alternative Nash equilibria. We prove existence, examine some variants that are related to evolutionary solution concepts, and, most importantly, offer a unified approach to...

Managing supply uncertainty under supply chain Cournot competition

Fang, Yaner; Shou, Biying - In: European Journal of Operational Research 243 (2015) 1, pp. 156-176

We study the Cournot competition between two supply chains that are subject to supply uncertainty. Each supply chain … competition intensity affect the equilibrium decisions of ordering quantity, contract offering, and centralization choice. We show … supply risks and competition scenarios. Finally, we show that supply chain centralization is a dominant strategy, and it …
