Characterization of the support of the mixed strategy price equilibria in oligopolies with heterogeneous consumers

Maxim Sinitsyn

Economics Letters, 2008, vol. 99, issue 2, 242-245

Abstract: This paper revisits the theory of oligopoly pricing and shows that for a large class of demand and cost functions, a mixed strategy equilibrium necessarily implies that each firm's equilibrium strategy is a discrete distribution over a finite number of prices.
