> You had a note on how to model oligopolistic producer behavior in GAMS?
Uploaded to http://www.amsterdamoptimization.com/pdf/oligopoly.pdf.
The paper shows that an MCP formulation is natural for this. It also compares prices and quantities with the situation where the firms are merged and a large monopolist is formed. This behavior is easily modeled using a simple NLP model. A numerical experiment like this can be quickly implemented using a modeling language.
Thanks for this note. The comparison with the monopolist is also interesting.
