Pacing Equilibria in Second-Price Auctions with Few Goods
Yiyang Huang, Yonglei Yan, Zihe Wang +1
In this paper, we investigate the computation of second-price pacing equilibria (SPPEs), a foundational model in online advertising auctions. We present a polynomial-time algorithm…
Optimal Pricing Schemes for Identical Items with Time-Sensitive Buyers
Zhengyang Liu, Liang Shan, Zihe Wang
Time or money? That is a question! In this paper, we consider this dilemma in the pricing regime, in which we try to find the optimal pricing scheme for identical items with hetero…
Improved Approximation Ratios of Fixed-Price Mechanisms in Bilateral Trades
Zhengyang Liu, Zeyu Ren, Zihe Wang
We continue the study of the performance for fixed-price mechanisms in the bilateral trade problem, and improve approximation ratios of welfare-optimal mechanisms in several settin…
Optimal Anonymous Independent Reward Scheme Design
Mengjing Chen, Pingzhong Tang, Zihe Wang +2
We consider designing reward schemes that incentivize agents to create high-quality content (e.g., videos, images, text, ideas). The problem is at the center of a real-world applic…
A Game-theoretical Approach to Analyze Film Release Time
Hua Liu, Mengjing Chen, Xiaolong Wang +1
Film release dates play an important part in box office revenues because of the facts of obvious seasonality demand in the film industry and severe competition among films shown at…
Optimal mechanisms with budget for user generated contents
Mengjing Chen, Pingzhong Tang, Zihe Wang +2
In this paper, we design gross product maximization mechanisms which incentivize users to upload high-quality contents on user-generated-content (UGC) websites. We show that, the p…
