Ex-ante Pareto Efficiency for the Random Assignment Problem

Feizi, Mehdi - 2022

We introduce ex-ante Pareto efficiency, which is a slightly weaker notion of efficiency than ex-post Pareto efficiency. We strengthen the impossibility between ex-post Pareto efficiency, strategyproofness, and envy-freeness in the random assignment problem and show that it prevails if ex-post...

The Allocation of a Prize (R)

Dubey, Pradeep K.; Sahi, Siddhartha - 2012

Consider agents who undertake costly effort to produce stochastic outputs observable by a principal. The principal can award a prize deterministically to the agent with the highest output, or to all of them with probabilities that are proportional to their outputs. We show that, if there is...

Reallocations of Income between Heterogeneous Units

Thon, Dominique; Wallace, Stein W. - 2003

This paper extends the standard redistribution axioms to the case where the income units differ for example by size, deserve or need. It is essentially based on a generalization of Muirhead's Lemma. The standard case where all units are alike falls off as a particular case

Probabilistic Assignment of Objects : Characterizing the Serial Rule

Bogomolnaia, Anna; Heo, Eun Jeong - 2011

We study the problem of assigning a set of objects to a set of agents, when each agent is supposed to receive only one object and has strict preferences over the objects. In the absence of monetary transfers, we focus on the probabilistic rules, which takes the ordinal preferences as input (the...

When Does Approval Voting Make the 'Right Choices'?

Brams, Steven J.; Kilgour, D. Marc - 2011

We assume that a voter’s judgment about a proposal depends on (i) the proposal’s probability of being right (or good or just) and (ii) the voter’s probability of making a correct judgment about its rightness (or wrongness). Initially, the state of a proposal (right or wrong), and the...

Minimally Disproportional Representation : Generalized Entropy and Stolarsky Mean-Divisor Methods of Apportionment

Lauwers, Luc; Van Puyenbroeck, Tom - 2009

We study divisor methods, the primary class to solve apportionment problems, based upon Stolarsky means S(alphabeta). These encompass the five traditional methods. We disclose a one-to-one relation between methods of the form S(alpha1) and aggregate measures of seat/vote disproportionality of...
