We introduce a notion of subgames for stochastic timing games and the related notion of subgame-perfect equilibrium in … general, we argue that our model is the appropriate version for timing games. We show that the notion coincides with the usual … one for discrete-time games. Many timing games in continuous time have only equilibria in mixed strategies - in particular …

We analyze the tax effects on a potential firm with an irreversible entry option and subject to risky post-entry earnings. We formulate the problem in terms of optimal stopping and derive both the necessary conditions for optimal entry and the value of the optimal premium by relying on the...

We study how learning affects an uninformed monopolist?s supply and investment decisions under multiplicative uncertainty in demand. The monopolist is uninformed because it does not know one of the parameters deÞning the distribution of the random demand. Observing prices reveals this...
