Competitive Diffusion [PDF]

Journal of Political Economy, 1994
The usual explanation for why the producers of a given product use different technologies involves "vintage-capital": A firm understands the frontier technology, but can still prefer an older, less efficient technology in which it has made specific physical and human capital investments.

Competition lessens competition

Economics Letters, 2013

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
We propose a framework of utility competition (UC), and we provide the intuition why price competition (PC), quantity competition (QC) and UC differ, and prove it by using a nonlinear demand system.
