Abstract
Dynamic Oligopoly Models in Revenue Management and Supply Chain Management
Ming Hu
This thesis is focused on various dynamic oligopoly pricing games in revenue management and supply chain management. The oligopoly theory has been well-developed in the literature of economics.

In a comparison fashion, I discuss below problems and concepts that have been explored, and tools and methodologies that have been applied.
• Stochastic game and differential game. We aim to solve for Markov perfect equilibria to stochastic games of oligopoly pricing competition in... [continues]
