Nonlinear Dynamics and Multistability in a Cobweb Model by S. S. Askar

“…In the 2D model, where the memory factor is introduced, the equilibrium price is obtained, and it is shown that it can be destabilized through chaotic behaviors, which are formed due to period doubling and Neimark-Sacker bifurcation. Furthermore, we study the symmetric case when the producers update their prices based on the marginal profit in the past two time periods, and therefore, we investigate the influence of the speed of adjustment parameter on the stability of equilibrium price.…”
