Parameterized by an exponent term p, generalized-mean welfares encompass multiple well-studied objectives, such as social welfare, Nash social welfare, and egalitarian welfare. ...
Indeed, with p equal to one, zero, and −∞, the p-mean welfare, respectively, corresponds to (average) social welfare, Nash social welfare, and egalitarian welfare. ...

Fair Division of Indivisible Goods: A Survey
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
Allocating resources to individuals in a fair manner has been a topic of interest since the ancient times, with most of the early rigorous mathematical work on the problem focusing on infinitely divisible ...
Recently, there has been a surge of papers studying computational questions regarding various different notions of fairness for the indivisible case, like maximin share fairness (MMS) and envy-freeness ...

For pure Nash equilibria, we establish tight bounds on the LPoA for the larger class of fractionally-subadditive valuations. ...
The social welfare function, which is the standard measure of efficiency in auctions, is inadequate for settings with budgets, since there may be a large disconnect between the value a bidder derives from ...
The authors showed that, for second price auctions, the social welfare of every Bayesian Nash equilibrium is a 2-approximation to the optimal social welfare, even for players with fractionally-subadditive ...
