Multi-parameter mechanism design and sequential posted pricing
We study the classic mathematical economics problem of Bayesian optimal mechanism
design where a principal aims to optimize expected revenue when allocating resources to …

Combinatorial auctions via posted prices
We study anonymous posted price mechanisms for combinatorial auctions in a Bayesian
framework. In a posted price mechanism, item prices are posted, then the consumers …

A simple and approximately optimal mechanism for an additive buyer
We consider a monopolist seller with n heterogeneous items, facing a single buyer. The
buyer has a value for each item drawn independently according to (non-identical) …

Approximate revenue maximization with multiple items
Maximizing the revenue from selling more than one good (or item) to a single buyer is a
notoriously difficult problem, in stark contrast to the one-good case. For two goods, we show …

Simple mechanisms for subadditive buyers via duality
We provide simple and approximately revenue-optimal mechanisms in the multi-item multi-
bidder settings. We unify and improve all previous results, as well as generalize the results …
