Abstract
Several papers suggest that Cournot competition in a spatial model,
with a uniform distribution of consumers, agglomerate at the center of
the market. In this paper we prove that this is not true under an hyperbolic
demand function and concave transport cost. Moreover we prove
that under the above assumptions in the center of the market the firms
obtain minimum profit reaching the maximum when both firms locate at
opposite places of the market.
