Quantity Competition in a Spatial Model. Canadian Journal of Economics [Internet]. 1994 :903.
Publisher's VersionAbstractThe authors analyze a duopoly model where firms first choose locations on a line segment and then choose quantities in the second stage. Pure strategy quantity equilibria fail to exist for locations close together. For low transport costs, near agglomeration occurs and the firms choose locations where pure strategy quantity equilibria exist. As transport costs rise, firms become less direct competitors as they move away from the center of the market. Coauthors are James F. Klein, Eytan Sheshinski, and Steven M. Slutsky.

Les auteurs analysent un modèle de duopole où les firmes choisissent d'abord leur localisation le long d'un segment linéaire et puis, dans un second temps, les quantités qu'elles désirent produire. On montre qu'il n'est pas possible d'établir l'existence d'équilibres pour de pures stratégies de quantités quand il s'agit de localisations trop rapprochées. Quand les coûts de transport sont faibles, il y a presqu' agglomération et les firmes choisissent des localisations telles que des équi
