On the Existence of Cournot Equilibrium
TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of n-firm Cournot equilibria in a market for a single homogeneous commodity was examined, and it was shown that if each firm's marginal revenue declines as the aggregate output of other firms increases, then a Cournot equilibrium exists, without assuming that firms have nondecreasing marginal cost or identical technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fulfilled Expectations Cournot Duopoly with Information Acquisition and Release
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the fulfilled expectations equilibrium for a Cournot duopoly model in which firms acquire information about uncertain linear demand and established several propositions concerning the incentives to acquire and release information in this duopoly environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cournot Equilibrium with Free Entry
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that if firms are small relative to the market, then the market outcome is approximately competitive, and if firms have strictly U-shaped average cost curves, then individual firm behaviour converges to competitive behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equilibrium in simple spatial (or differentiated product) models
TL;DR: In this article, a modified ZCV is used, where each firm views the strategy of other firms as fixed so long as its own strategy does not cause its delivered price to match or undercut any other firms' price at that other firm's own location.

General Equilibrium with Free Entry: A Synthetic Approach to the Theory of Perfect Competition*
TL;DR: In contrast to both the Marshallian and the ADM theories, the authors does not take price taking as a hypothesis and uses the term "perfect competition" to describe a situation in which firms are arbitrarily small relative to the markets in which they are involved.
