Abstract

This dissertation explores two main themes: the development of static games using machine learning, and the impact of firms' behaviors on economic and health outcomes. The first chapter focuses on the development of machine learning estimators for static games. The second chapter examines the effects of chain pharmacy entry on competition, market structure, and access to pharmacies in rural areas, utilizing the estimators developed in the first chapter. The third chapter investigates how mergers alter the post-merger market structure.
