Regional Science and Urban Economics, 2009
Abstract We investigate an interregional mixed duopoly wherein a local public firm competes against a private firm. We employ a spatial model with price competition. The public firm is owned by the local government of the left half of the linear city called Region 1, and maximizes its welfare.

Mixed Bundling in Duopoly [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2003 We present a model where producers of complementary goods have the option to practice mixed bundling. In the first stage of a two-stage game, firms choose between a mixed bundling and a non- bundling strategy. In the second stage, firms choose prices. We show that mixed bundling is a dominant strategy for both firms.

Optimal zoning of a mixed duopoly
The Annals of Regional Science, 2013This paper studies the optimal zoning of amixed duopolywhen the objective function of the public firm is a weighted sum of its profits and social surplus.We find that a regulator may attain the optimal locations of both firms by restricting the location of the private firm only. There is no need to limit the location of the public firm. In contrast, in

Coopetition in a Mixed Duopoly Market [PDF]
Economics Bulletin, 2008 This study aims to investigate the impact of privatization on the degree of cooperation and competition in a mixed duopoly market. In this market, one semipublic firm and one private firm determine the level of two types of effort: the cooperative effort made to enlarge the total market size and the competitive effort made to increase market share.

Price Competition in a Mixed Duopoly [PDF]
Economics Bulletin, 2006 We analyze sequential and simultaneous price setting under a mixed duopoly with homogeneous products and symmetric quadratic cost functions. When public firm is the follower, there exists the case that the equilibrium price is highest of all timings.

Partial privatization in a quantity-price-setting mixed duopoly
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2020This paper studies the optimal level of privatization in a mixed duopoly with one state-owned semi-public firm and one private firm producing imperfectly substitutable goods, and the corresponding effects. We consider two potential combinations: (i) the state-owned public firm sets the price and the private firm sets the output production; and (ii) the

On Public Inefficiencies in a Mixed Duopoly [PDF]
, 2009 The aim of this paper is to investigate the welfare effect of a change in the public firm's objective function in oligopoly when the government takes into account the distortionary effect of rising funds by taxation (shadow cost of public funds). We analyze the impact of a shift from welfare- to profit-maximizing behaviour of the public firm on the ...

A Mixed Duopoly With Switching Costs
The Japanese Economic Review, 2018We examine the effects of switching costs in a two-period Hotelling-type model where a profit-maximising private firm competes with a welfare-maximising public firm. We show that, in contrast with the case in which both firms are private, where switching costs raise prices in both periods, in the mixed duopoly they raise prices in the second period but

MARKET‐DEMAND BOOSTING AND PRIVATIZATION IN A MIXED DUOPOLY
Bulletin of Economic Research, 2011ABSTRACTThis study incorporates demand‐boosting strategies into a mixed duopoly model in order to consider the endogenous determination of market demand. The results indicate equilibrium characteristics that differ from those found under an exogenous demand setting.

ON COURNOT-BERTRAND MIXED DUOPOLIES*
The Japanese Economic Review, 1996This paper deals with a situation where a quantity-setting Coumot firm and a price-setting Bertrand firm coexist in the same industry. Under a set of regularity conditions on demand and cost, we compute equilibrium prices on Cournot-Bertrand “mixed” duopolies, and compare them with those of “pure” Cournot and Bertrand duopolies.
