The analysis is restricted to bounded quantity and price paths that fulfill the necessary conditions for an open-loop Nash equilibrium. I show that there exists a symmetric steady state and that its stability depends on the degree of product differentiation. When moving from complements to perfect substitutes, the steady state is either a locally asymptotically unstable (spiral) source, a stable (spiral) sink or a saddle point. I further apply the Hopf bifurcation theorem and prove the existence of limit cycles, when passing from a stable to an unstable steady state. Lastly, I provide a numerical example and show that there exists a stable limit cycle.}}, author = {{Hoof, Simon}}, issn = {{1573-2878}}, journal = {{Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications}}, number = {{2}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{Dynamic Monopolistic Competition}}}, volume = {{189}}, year = {{2021}}, } @techreport{46540, abstract = {{Individual cognitive functioning declines over time.

To test the moderating impact of task difficulty, we (randomly) varied the difficulty of the questions between treatment groups.
