No price envy in the multi-unit object allocation problem with non-quasi-linear preferences

Shinozaki, Hiroki - 2022

We consider the problem of allocating multiple units of an indivisible object among a set of agents and collecting payments. Each agent can receive multiple units of the object, and has a (possibly) non-quasi-linear preference on the set of (consumption) bundles. We assume that preferences...

Deciding whether a law is constitutional, interpretable, or unconstitutional

Amorós, Pablo; Martínez, Ricardo; Moreno, Bernardo; … - In: SERIEs - Journal of the Spanish Economic Association 3 (2012) 1/2, pp. 1-14

A high court has to decide whether a lawis constitutional, unconstitutional, or interpretable. The voting system is runoff. Runoff voting systems can be interpreted both, as social choice functions or as mechanisms. It is known that, for universal domains of preferences, runoff voting systems...

A unified approach to strategy-proofness for single-peaked preferences

Weymark, John A. - In: SERIEs - Journal of the Spanish Economic Association 2 (2011) 4, pp. 529-550

This article establishes versions of Moulin's (Public Choice 35:437-455, 1980) characterizations of various classes of strategy-proof social choice functions when the domain consists of all profiles of single-peaked preferences on an arbitrary subset of the real line. Two results are established...

Dominant strategy implementation in economic environments

Mizukami, Hideki; Wakayama, Takuma - 2006

We study dominant strategy implementation especially in economic environments. We first showthat in general environments, strategy-proofness and quasi-strong-non-bossiness together are necessary and sufficient for dominant strategy implementation via the associated direct revelationmechanism. We...

Characterization of the uniform rule with several commodities and agents

Morimoto, Shuhei; Serizawa, Shigehiro; Ching, Stephen - 2010

We consider the problem of allocating infinitely divisible commodities among a group of agents. Especially, we focus on the case where there are several commodities to be allocated, and agents have continuous, strictly convex, and separable preferences. In this paper, we establish that the...

Maximal domain for strategy-proof probabilistic rules in economies with one public good

Morimoto, Shuhei - 2011

We consider the problem of choosing a level of a public good on an interval of the real line among a group of agents. A probabilistic rule chooses a probability distribution over the interval for each preference profile. We investigate strategy-proof probabilistic rules in the case where...

Fair reallocation in economies with single-peaked preferences

Hashimoto, Kazuhiko; Wakayama, Takuma - 2015

We consider the problem of fairly reallocating the individual endowments of a perfectly divisible good among agents with single-peaked preferences. We provide a new concept of fairness, called position-wise envy-freeness, that is compatible with individual rationality. This new concept requires...
