Discrete hotelling pure location games: potentials and equilibria
We study two-player one-dimensional discrete Hotelling pure location games assuming that demand f ( d ) as a function of distance d is constant or strictly decreasing. We show that this game admits a best-response potential. This result holds in particular for f ( d ) = w d with 0 < w ≤ 1. For th...

| Summary: | We study two-player one-dimensional discrete Hotelling pure location games assuming that demand
f
(
d
) as a function of distance
d
is constant or strictly decreasing. We show that this game admits a best-response potential. This result holds in particular for
f
(
d
) =
w
d
with 0 <
w
≤ 1. For this case special attention will be given to the structure of the equilibrium set and a conjecture about the increasingness of best-response correspondences will be made.
Nous étudions les jeux de localisation pure Hotelling discrets unidimensionnels à deux joueurs en supposant que la demande
f
(
d
) en fonction de la distance
d
est constante ou strictement décroissante. Nous montrons que ce jeu admet un potentiel de meilleure réponse. Ce ŕesultat vaut notamment pour
f
(
d
) =
w
d
avec 0 <
w
≤ 1. Dans ce cas, une attention particulière sera accordée à la structure de l’ensemble d’équilibre et une conjecture sur la croissance de la correspondance de meilleure réponse sera faite. |
