We show that different measures of competition (number of firms, degree of product differentiation, Cournot vs. Bertrand) affect incentives to innovate in non-monotonic, different and potentially opposite ways.doi:10.1111/j.1467-9957.2009.02131.xPAUL BELLEFLAMME...
When the number of firms is either N = 4 or N = 5, the dynamics may converge to a fixed point or to a 2-period cycle, as illustrated in Fig. 5. Convergence to fixed point occurs when the values of \(\underline {K}\) and \(\overline {K}\) are below about 0.6. However, if...

Next, we extend the model to the free entry case in which the number of firms in each market is determined at the zero profit condition endogenously. We then examine the optimality of entry fee and specify what an optimal entry fee should be in both markets under free entry. We show ...

Theconcentration ratiomeasures the market share of the largest firms in an industry and is used to detect an oligopoly. There is no precise upper limit to the number of firms in an oligopoly, but the number must be low enough that the actions of one firm significantly influence the others....
