Analysis of global bifurcations in a market share attraction model

In this paper we demonstrate how the global dynamics of an economic model can be analyzed. In particular, as an application, we consider a market share attraction model widely used in the analysis of interbrand competition in marketing theory. We analyze the local and global dynamic properties of the resulting two-dimensional noninvertible dynamical system in discrete time. The main result of t...

Investment and market dominance

We analyze a model of oligopolistic competition with ongoing investment. Special cases include incremental investment, patent races, learning by doing, and network externalities. We investigate circumstances under which a firm with low costs or high quality will extend its initial lead through investments. To this end, we derive a new comparative statics result for general games with strategic ...

In particular, I contrast evolutionary patterns of advertising spending and market structure between two segmen...
