摘要：

Locations and quantities are chosen sequentially in spatial markets. Strikingly different location patterns emerge, depending on the shape of the market. In a circular city, firms locate equidistant from each other. In a linear city, firms agglomerate at the center. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
