A more advanced technology has a higher fixed cost but a lower marginal cost of production. Even with both manufacturing finns and transportation firms engaged in oligopolistic competition and optimally choosing their technologies, the model is tractable and results are derived analytically. Technology adoptions in the manufacturing sector and transportation sector are reinforcing, and multiple equilibria may exist.

We propose the notion of the p-robust counterpart and the p-robust solution of uncertain linear complementarity problems. We discuss uncertain linear complementarity problems with three different uncertainty sets, respectively, including an unknown-but-bounded uncertainty set, an ellipsoidal uncertainty set and an intersection-of-ellipsoids uncertainty set, and present some sufficient and necessary （or sufficient） conditions which p-robust solutions satisfy. Some special eases are investigated in this paper.展开更多
