Network Investment Game with Wardrop Followers
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
We study a two-sided network investment game consisting of two sets of players, called providers and users. The game is set in two stages. ...
In the first stage, providers aim to maximize their profit by investing in bandwidth of cloud computing services. The investments of the providers yield a set of usable services for the users. ...
We study the problem by means of a two-stage game, which we call a network investment game. ...

If player 1 invests, then they will engage in a Cournot game with c 1 = 0 and c 2 = 2. Otherwise, they will engage in a Cournot game with c 1 = c 2 = 2. ...
Our next example considers a duopoly investment game, in which there are two players in the market (see Figure 2 .2). Player 1 can choose to invest or not invest. ...
Motivated by these issues, we suggest the following research directions: Analyzing games by their relation to games with structure. ...

We then compare the SLG game with the BE game; equilibria for the BE is characterized in a previous paper. ...
Using these results we show that in the case of constant returns to investment, while the NE price for the SLG game is perfectly competitive, firms obtain positive markups in the unique NE for the BE game ...

N-player Bertrand-Cournot games in queues: Existence of equilibrium

2008 46th Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing
We intend to extend this to queues with multiple classes of service as a framework to study differentiated services in networks. I. INTRODUCTION We consider a simple queueing game model. ...
We obtain conditions for existence of Nash equilibrium in such a game. We then consider the case where the providers invest in capacity and set price simultaneously. ...
More recently, [11] considered the Bertrand game between multiple network service providers. ...
