RPM and Vertical Integration With Upstream Competition and Noncontractible Efforts

open access: yesThe Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study RPM and vertical integration in a common agency setting with two differentiated manufacturers and one retailer, where consumer demand depends on both the manufacturers' and retailer's noncontractible efforts. Under vertical separation, the adoption of maximum RPM by both manufacturers is an equilibrium and intensifies competition ...

Robust Mean–Variance Portfolio Optimization: Mean–Variance–Variance Criterion Versus Mean–Variance–Standard Deviation Criterion

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study a dynamic portfolio optimization problem under the mean–variance–variance (M‐V‐V) criterion proposed by Maccheroni et al. It is an analogue of the Arrow–Pratt approximation to the well‐known smooth ambiguity model. Under the standard Black–Scholes framework, we derive fully explicit equilibrium investment strategies in which a DM's ...

Two-Player Location Game in a Closed-Loop Market with Quantity Competition

open access: yesComplexity, 2020
This paper considers the two-player location game in a closed-loop market with quantity competition. Based on the Cournot and Hotelling models, a circle model is established for a closed-loop market in which two players (firms) play a location game under

Employee Fraud and the Statute of Limitations in a Search and Matching Model

open access: yesThe Manchester School, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper integrates employee fraud into a Mortensen‐Pissarides search and matching model to analyze labor market dynamics under imperfect legal enforcement. We introduce a time‐dependent punishment structure where the offender's effective liability is governed by the statute of limitations. We characterize both short‐ and long‐run equilibria,

Biased News Media and the Swing Voter's Decision in Repeated Games

open access: yesThe Manchester School, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 469-482, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider a monopolistic, biased news media platform that attempts to influence the decision of swing voters with cheap talk when voting is costly and abstaining is an option. First, we demonstrate that, while no fully communicative equilibrium exists in a stage game, a partially truth‐revealing mixed‐strategy equilibrium exists.
