Markov Perfect Equilibrium Advertising Strategies of Lanchester Duopoly Model: A Technical Note

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1287/mnsc.1040.0249

We propose a numerical approach to compute stationary Markov perfect Nash equilibrium advertising strategies of the Lanchester model. The algorithm can be implemented using a standard mathematical package, and, importantly, it does not require that the players discount their future earnings at a zero rate, an assumption that has been made in the literature.
