Tacit Collusion in Differentiated Cournot Games

The relationship between product differentiation and tacit collusion has been analyzed by Deneckere (1983,1984). For Cournot games, he assumed that collusion is supported by the threat of reverting to the equilibrium of the one shot game. Recently, Abreu (1986) has, however, derived the optimal punishment schemes for a wide range of repeated games. The purpose of the present paper is to analyze...

Learning and Tacit Collusion by Artificial Agents in Cournot Duopoly Games

We examine learning by artificial agents in repeated play of Cournot duopoly games. Our learning model is simple and cognitively realistic. The model departs from standard reinforcement learning models, as applied to agents in games, in that it credits the agent with a form of conceptual ascent, whereby the agent is able to learn from a consideration set of strategies spanning more than one per...

Tacit Collusion in Oligopoly∗

We examine the economics literature on tacit collusion in oligopoly markets and take steps toward clarifying the relation between economists’ analysis of tacit collusion and those in the legal literature. We provide an example to motivate the idea that collusive profits can be achieved via tacit coordination in an environment where there is a unique, salient way for colluders to maximize and di...

Tacit collusion in repeated auctions

This paper considers the question of tacit collusion in repeated auctions with independent private values and with limited public monitoring. McAfee and McMillan show that the extent of collusion is tied to availability of transfers. Monetary transfers allow cartels to extract full surplus. A folk theorem proved by Fudenberg at al. shows that transfers of future payoffs are almost as good if pl...

Modeling Tacit Collusion in Auctions

We study tacit collusion in repeated auctions in which bidders can only observe past winners and not their bids. We adopt a stringent interpretation of tacit collusion as collusion without communication about strategies that we model as a symmetry restriction on repeated game strategies: Strategies cannot discriminate among initially nameless bidders until they have become named through winning...
