Equilibrium Locations in a Spatial Model with Sequential Entry in Real Time¤
نویسنده
چکیده
I describe the entry process in a spatial market over an in...nite time horizon. I show that, as long as the strategy space at the location stage is unbounded, the results derived from the single-period Stackelberg model of entry coincide with those obtained in the in...nite horizon model. On the contrary, if the strategy space is bounded, then the later the follower enters, the closer to the center of the market the leader locates at the initial date. JEL Classi...cation: L13, O31

Sequential Competitive Facility Location Problem in a Discrete Planar Space
In this paper, there are two competitors in a planar market. The first competitor, called, the leader, opens new facilities. After that, the second competitor, the follower, reacts to the leader’s action and opens r new facilities. The leader and the follower have got some facilities in advance in this market. The optimal locations for leader and follower are chosen among predefined candida...
متن کاملPreemptive Entry in Differentiated Product Markets
Models of spatial competition are typically static, and exhibit multiple freeentry equilibria. Incumbent firms can earn rents in equilibrium because any potential entrant expects a significantly lower market share (since it must fit into a niche between incumbent firms) along with fiercer price competition. Previous research has usually concentrated on the zero-profit equilibrium, at which ther...
متن کاملThe Development History of the Holy Shrine of Hazrat-e Ma‘soumeh (pbuh) in Qom, Iran: Hierarchy of Entry From the Safavid Period to the Qajar Period
Entrance to sacred places where pilgrims enter enthusiastically for pilgrimage and request for divine bestowal expose one of the characteristics of pilgrimage called the hierarchy of entry. There have been numerous studies on the necessity and quality of sequential spaces for entry to sacred sites in Iran, but little research has been done on the cognitive impact of this hierarchy on the visito...
متن کاملSpatial Competition , Sequential Entry , and Technology Choice
This article introduces technology choice into a Hotelling model of spatial competition. This yields two entry deterrence devices, as well as complex strategic choices for the firms and a rich picture of industry structure. Depending on cost parameters and market size, firms may choose to over-invest or to under-invest. Industry structure is typically asymmetric either in terms of the locations...
متن کاملSpatial variability analysis of subsurface soil in Mashhad city, NE Iran
Reliable characterization of subsurface soil in urban areas is a major concern in geotechnical and geological engineering projects. In this regard, this research deals with development of a 3D geological engineering model on Mashhad City soil using Sequential Gaussian Simulation (SGS) approach. The intense variability of soil in the study area has sometimes caused serious problems in civil engi...
