Glossary · Micro · Oligopoly and game theory
Cournot model
A model of oligopoly where firms choose quantities at the same time and the market price follows from the total. Each firm’s best quantity depends on what it expects the other to produce, and the equilibrium sits between the monopoly and competitive outcomes.
Also called: Cournot duopoly, reaction function
