Efficient Strategy-Proof Allocation Functions in Linear Production Economies

MANIQUET, François; SPRUMONT, Yves - Département de Sciences Économiques, Université de … - 1998

In a linear production model, we characterize the class of efficient and strategy-proof allocation functions, and the class of efficient and coalition strategy-proof allocation functions. In the former class, requiring equal treatment of equals allows us to identify a unique allocation function....
