Abstract

 In the paper, a homogeneo s goods market with a spatial distribution of agents-sellers which form a set of local markets is investigated. The specificity of the modelling market lies in consideration of state regulation by using additional payments for sellers (subsidy or tax) per unit of goods. Consumers pay transport costs of delivering goods. According to the Hotelling approach, the model of spatial competition on the plane with agents-sellers able to move to different locations within the town is considered. Equilibrium states under different initial conditions are found using a multi-agent simulation model developed in the NetLogo software simulation system. The obtained results demonstrate that for a number of agents (more than two), the effect of minimal spatial differentiation of agents is not observed. State regulation (subsidy or tax) plays an ambiguous role in the multi-agent market. On the one hand, it provides additional advantages to "strong" and highly effective sellers. On the other hand, it does not have positive effects to support the development of "weak" and not so effective sellers.
