Entry and Exit (Classic Reprint): Subgame Perfect Equilibria in Continuous-Time Stopping Games, April 1991: Subgame Perfect Equilibria in Continuous-Time Stopping Games, April 1991 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Entry and Exit: Subgame Perfect Equilibria in Continuous-Time Stopping Games This scholarly work analyzes when firms should enter or exit an industry under uncertainty modeled by continuous time and Brownian motion. It presents barrier policies and subgame perfect equilibria to explain timing decisions in single?firm and duopoly settings.
The book explains how optimal stopping and continuous-time game theory can be combined to determine when a firm should enter, stay, or leave. It uses mathematical models to show why and how barrier levels govern entry and exit decisions, and it explores how competition between two firms shapes these choices.
Readers will encounter concrete results about existence, uniqueness, and structure of equilibria, along with implications for the duration of monopoly periods and the impact of potential entrants on incumbents. The treatment blends single?firm problems with interactive duopoly analysis to illuminate strategic timing under uncertainty.
- How continuous-time models describe demand, randomness, and optimal stopping decisions.
- Why barrier policies (specific entry and exit thresholds) arise as optimal strategies.
- How subgame perfect equilibria are characterized in both monopoly and duopoly settings.
- How the presence of competition can shorten or extend the life of a monopoly depending on demand dynamics.
Ideal for readers of advanced microeconomic theory, contract and game theory, or operations research who want a rigorous, math?driven view of timing decisions under uncertainty.

Entry and Exit: Subgame Perfect Equilibria in Continuous-Time Stopping Games
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines continuous-time entry and exit subgame perfect equilibria in stopping games. It offers an in-depth analysis of a class of continuous-time entry and exit games where the stochastically changing environment is modeled through Brownian motion. When there are multiple subgame perfect equilibria, the author explicitly characterizes the equilibrium strategies, thereby providing the bounds of all possible strategies in a subgame perfect equilibrium. The book provides a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniqueness of a subgame perfect equilibrium. The author extends the analysis of entry-exit decisions done either in continuous time under certainty or in discrete-time under uncertainty to continuous time under uncertainty, while directly working with continuous time without taking limits of discrete-time outcomes. They also contribute to continuous-time game theory by working with continuous time without taking limits of discrete-time outcomes.
