We introduce a model of tourism choice where we consider that the choice of a tourism resort by a tourist, depends not only on the characteristics of the product offered by the resort but depends also on certain characteristics -crowding types- of the other tourists that have chosen the same...

This paper considers the effects multilateral opportunistic behaviour on the firm’s capital structure. We show that multiple parties introduce greater incompleteness, because the firm cannot control future contracts in potential opportunistic coalitions. A higher debt-equity ratio increases...

It is well-known that there are no pure strategy Nash equilibria (PSNE) in the standard three-candidate spatial voting model when candidates maximize their share of the vote. When all that matters to the candidates is winning the election, however, we show that PSNE do exist. We provide a...

In this paper, we consider the Coase theorem in a non cooperative game framework. In particular, we explore the robustness of the Coase theorem with respect to the ?nal distribution of alienable property rights which constitutes, as far as we know, a less cultivated ?eld of research. In our...

We defined the potential for multi-choice cooperative games, and found the relationship between the potential and the multi-choice Shapley value. Moreover, we show that the multi-choice Shapley is consistent.

This paper provides a methodology to study coalition formation problems with externalities and heterogeneous players, whensome subset of the players can act as "coalition developers" over time. The framework provided here allows to explicitly predict the timing of admission to coalitions, the...

In many intermediate goods markets buyers and sellers both have market power. Contracts are usually long-term and negotiated bilaterally, codifying many elements in addition to price. We model such bilateral oligopolies as a set of simultaneous Rubenstein-Stahl bargainings over contracts...

This paper studies the repeated Prisoner’s Dilemma in a local interaction setup. We construct a sequential equilibrium in pure strategies that sustains cooperation for suffciently patient players. The strategy is embedded in an explicitly defined expectation system, which is a more compact way...

This paper introduces a non-cooperative game-theoretic model of sequential network formation, in which players propose links and demand payoffs. Payoff division is therefore endogenous. We show that if the value of networks satisfies size-monotonicity, then each and every equilibrium network is...

If a seller delivers a good non-conforming to contract, European and US warranty law allows consumers to choose between some money transfer and termination. Termination rights are, however, widely criticized, mainly for fear that the buyer may use non-conformity as a pretext for getting rid of a...
