Specificity of the market of information and legal support as a prospective object of mathematical modeling
This work is devoted to the development of approaches to mathematical modeling of competition between companies in the information and legal support market. The clearly pronounced oligopolistic nature of the market in question and the high degree of its saturation raise a wide range of issues of strategic interaction between its participants. With the generally accepted approaches to modeling oligopolistic competition, it is necessary to take into account the specific characteristics of the market - the subscription nature of contracts with consumers, network effects, distribution costs. Taking these factors into account is important not only for the purposes of mathematical modeling, but first, as a basis for strategic and operational planning of the activities of companies operating in the market. All this in combination forms the basis of promising directions for further research.
