Efficiency and Envy-freeness in Fair Division of Indivisible Goods: Logical Representation and Complexity
2008
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
We consider the problem of allocating fairly a set of indivisible goods among agents from the point of view of compact representation and computational complexity. ...
We express efficiency and envy-freeness in a logical setting, which reveals unexpected connections to nonmonotonic reasoning. ...
Acknowledgements: We thank Michel Lemaître for stimulating discussions about fair division and compact representation, and Thibault Gajdos for stimulating discussions about envy-freeness and for pointing ...

Characterizing conflicts in fair division of indivisible goods using a scale of criteria
2015
Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems
We investigate five different fairness criteria in a simple model of fair resource allocation of indivisible goods based on additive preferences. ...
We analyze the computational properties of the five criteria, give some experimental results about them, and further investigate a slightly richer model with k-additive preferences. ...
Acknowledgements We thank Ariel Procaccia and members of COST Action IC-1205 for helpful discussions. ...

Fair Division: The Computer Scientist's Perspective

I survey recent progress on a classic and challenging problem in social choice: the fair division of indivisible items. ...
This has involved bringing to bear tools such as those used in knowledge representation, computational complexity, approximation methods, game theory, online analysis and communication complexity ...
This has proved popular in fair division, starting with the work of Lipton et al. [2004] and an attractive relaxation of envy-freeness: envy-freeness up to one good (EF1). ...

Variable Elimination in Binary CSPs (Extended Abstract)
2020
Proceedings of the Twenty-Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence
We propose new rules and compare them, both theoretically and experimentally. We give optimised algorithms to apply these rules and show that each defines a novel tractable class. ...
Using our variable-elimination rules in preprocessing allowed us to solve more benchmark problems than without. ...

Dividing Goods or Bads Under Additive Utilities
2016
Social Science Research Network
Beyond the fair division of private goods, RM has been applied to a broad range of resource allocation problems with production and/or indivisibilities. 5 Fair Share Guarantee (FSG) says that nobody ...
In particular at most one agent is eating both goods, and we have two types of efficient and envy-free allocations. ...
Recall that F c (Q) is the set of critical points of the Nash product in Ψ ef f (Q).The k/k + 1-cut allocations are the extreme points of the set of feasible allocations Φ (N, A) , and their utility profiles ...
