TL;DR: The sensitivity of the basic model is emphasized, i.e., the changes that occur when assumptions are dropped or replaced by others, and a number of issues that have, at least so far, not been addressed are addressed.

Static competitive facility location: An overview of optimisation approaches
TL;DR: An overview of the research, models and literature about optimisation approaches to the problem of optimally locating one or more new facilities in an environment where competing facilities are already established is given.

Combining the Analytic Hierarchy Process and Quality Function Deployment for a Location Decision from a Requirement Perspective
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and quality function deployment (QFD) techniques are combined to support facility location decision from a requirement perspective, and an overall score for each of the candidate locations is computed for the decision-maker to select the optimal location.

Discrete models for competitive location with foresight
TL;DR: This work develops mixed zero-one programming formulations for each of the following three strategies: the maxmin strategy where the worst possible competitor choice is considered, the minimum regret strategy, and the von Stackelberg strategy in which the competitor also optimises its market share.

A leader-follower game in competitive facility location
TL;DR: A bilevel mixed-integer nonlinear programming model where the firm entering the market is the leader and the competitor is the follower is formulated and heuristics that combine tabu search with exact solution methods are proposed.

Locational analysis: highlights of growth to maturity
TL;DR: This paper charts the progress of location theory in three stages: a period of early contributions, when a number of seminal geometrical and geographical problems were studied; a ‘coming of age’ with the development of defining or classical problems that have proved fundamental to much later research and a third period of new models and new applications.

Stability in Competition
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if the purveyor of an article gradually increases his price while his rivals keep theirs fixed, the diminution in volume of his sales will in general take place continuously rather than in the abrupt way which has tacitly been assumed.

On hotelling's "Stability in competition"
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the so-called principle of minimum differentiation, as based on Hotelling's 1929 celebrated paper (Hotelling [3]), is invalid and that no equilibrium price solution will exist when both sellers are not far enough from each other.
