Learning and collusion in multi-unit auctions

S Brânzei, M Derakhshan… - Advances in Neural …, 2023 - proceedings.neurips.cc
In a carbon auction, licenses for CO2 emissions are allocated among multiple interested
players. Inspired by this setting, we consider repeated multi-unit auctions with uniform …

Tight revenue gaps among simple mechanisms

Y Jin, P Lu, ZG Tang, T Xiao - SIAM Journal on Computing, 2020 - SIAM
We consider a fundamental problem in microeconomics: selling a single item to a number of
potential buyers, whose values are drawn from known independent and regular (not …

Bidding in Uniform Price Auctions for Value Maximizing Buyers

N Golrezaei, S Sahoo - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.03674, 2024 - arxiv.org
We study the problem of bidding in uniform price auctions widely used in practice. Although
these auctions are non-truthful for bidders with quasilinear utility functions, several empirical …

We consider repeated multi-unit auctions with uniform pricing, which are widely used in
practice for allocating goods such as carbon licenses. In each round, K identical units of a …

Towards a characterization of worst case equilibria in the discriminatory price auction

E Markakis, A Sgouritsa, A Tsikiridis - International Conference on Web …, 2021 - Springer
We study the performance of the discriminatory price auction under the uniform bidding
interface, which is one of the popular formats for running multi-unit auctions in practice. We …

The five chapters in this thesis are connected by the following question: How Close Does It
Get? In Chapter 3, we study two pricing problems in networks. We are given a directed …

Corruption in Auctions: Social Welfare Loss in Hybrid Multi-Unit Auctions

A van Beek, R Brokkelkamp, G Schäfer - arXiv preprint arXiv:2106.01822, 2021 - arxiv.org
We initiate the study of the social welfare loss caused by corrupt auctioneers, both in single-
item and multi-unit auctions. In our model, the auctioneer may collude with the winning …
