Sensitivity Analysis for Convex Separable Optimization over Integral Polymatroids
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
We apply these sensitivity results to a class of non-cooperative polymatroid games and derive the existence of pure Nash equilibria. ...
Under convexity and a regularity assumption on the functional dependency of the cost function with respect to the parameters, we show that reoptimization after a change in parameters can be done by elementary ...

Electronic Markets and Auctions (Dagstuhl Seminar 13461)
2014
Dagstuhl Reports
From the computer science perspective, with the advent of the Internet, there has been a significant amount of work in Algorithmic Game Theory focusing on computational aspects of electronic markets and ...
The main goal of this seminar was to study topics related to electronic markets and auctions both from the computational perspective and from a game-theoretic and economic one. ...
The core of such a game contains all fair allocations of ν(V ) among the players of V , and is well-known to be non-empty iff graph G is stable. ...

On the Nisan-Ronen conjecture for submodular valuations
2020
Proceedings of the 52nd Annual ACM SIGACT Symposium on Theory of Computing
For the scheduling problem with such cost functions, we give a lower bound of Ω( √ n) on the approximation ratio of incentive compatible deterministic mechanisms. ...
We consider incentive compatible mechanisms for a domain that is very close to the domain of scheduling n unrelated machines: the single exception is that the valuation of just one machine is submodular ...
