Supply Function Equilibrium: Theory and Applications
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper deals with the Supply Function Equilibrium (SFE) as a model of competition in electricity markets. It introduces theoretical advancement through relaxing traditional assumptions of continuity of supply functions and provides a foundation for efficient computational algorithms. Special emphasis is placed on exploring the existence of equilibria and on the players’ ability to learn subject to information available to them. The theory is applied to modeling electricity markets in the United States.

Distribution Design of Two Rival Decenteralized Supply Chains: a Two-person Nonzero Sum Game Theory Approach
We consider competition between two decentralized supply chains network under demand uncertainty. Each chain consists of one risk-averse manufacturer and a group of risk-averse retailers. These two chains present substitutable products to the geographical dispensed markets. The markets’ demands are contingent upon prices, service levels, and advertising efforts of two supply chains. We formulat...
