An evolutionary computational approach for the dynamic Stackelberg competition problems [PDF]
Stackelberg competition models are an important family of economical decision problems from game theory, in which the main goal is to find optimal strategies between two competitors taking into account their hierarchy relationship. Although these models have been widely studied in the past, it is important to note that very few works deal with ...

Price and Service Competition in a Dual-Channel Supply Chain with Product Customization
This paper considers a dual-channel supply chain with product customization. One manufacturer and one retailer are involved. The online direct sales channel sells standard and customized products, and the offline retail channel sells standard products ...

Asymmetric competition in food industry with product substitutability
The paper analyses the effects of asymmetric competition on food industry with product substitutability by establishing a two-stage dynamic game model. The equilibrium is captured under both the Cournot competition and Stackelberg competition.

Stackelberg Competition with Endogenous Entry [PDF]
I characterise endogenous market structures where leaders have a first-mover advantage and entry is endogenous. Leaders are always more aggressive than the followers, independently from strategic substitutability or complementarity. Under quantity competition, leaders produce more than any follower and I determine the conditions for entry-deterrence ...

THE MIXED STRATEGIES OF COOPERATION AND THE GENERALIZED LEADERSHIP FOR OUTPUTS OF SYMMETRIC DUOPOLY
It is shown that use of the generalized leadership Stackelberg strategy instead of traditional competition Cournot–Nash strategy allows resolution of the classical paradox known as the prisoner’s dilemma.

Stackelberg Games for Learning Emergent Behaviors During Competitive Autocurricula
Autocurricular training is an important sub-area of multi-agent reinforcement learning~(MARL) that allows multiple agents to learn emergent skills in an unsupervised co-evolving scheme. The robotics community has experimented autocurricular training with physically grounded problems, such as robust control and interactive manipulation tasks.
