Research by Prof. Ulrich Doraszelski
Prof. Doraszelski is known for his innovative research in productivity and competition analysis. His current work includes titles such as “Can Collusion Be Sustained Under Demand Uncertainty and Entry and Exit?”, which deals with the challenges of competitive dynamics under uncertain demand conditions. The topic of the production function is also present in several of his studies, such as the work “Production Function Estimation without Invertibility: Imperfectly Competitive Environments and Demand Shocks”, which he developed together with Lixiong Li bepp.wharton.upenn.edu is listed.
In addition to the theoretical aspects, Doraszelski has also made concrete contributions to the analysis of oligopoly dynamics with financing frictions. In combination with leadership researchers, he has published significant studies, including “Ownership Concentration and Strategic Supply Reduction” and “The Timing and Location of Entry in Growing Markets: Subgame Perfection at Work.” These studies demonstrate his comprehensive approach to economic issues and the relevance of his research to the current economic debate.
