The Specter (and Spectra) of Miner Extractable Value
Guillermo Angeris, Tarun Chitra, Theo Diamandis +1
Miner extractable value (MEV) refers to any excess value that a transaction validator can realize by manipulating the ordering of transactions. In this work, we introduce a simple…
Towards a Theory of Maximal Extractable Value II: Uncertainty
Tarun Chitra
Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) is value extractable by temporary monopoly power commonly found in decentralized systems. This extraction stems from a lack of user privacy upon tra…
The Geometry of Constant Function Market Makers
Guillermo Angeris, Tarun Chitra, Theo Diamandis +2
Constant function market makers (CFMMs) are the most popular type of decentralized trading venue for cryptocurrency tokens. In this paper, we give a very general geometric framewor…
Attacks on Dynamic DeFi Interest Rate Curves
Tarun Chitra, Peteris Erins, Kshitij Kulkarni
As decentralized money market protocols continue to grow in value locked, there have been a number of optimizations proposed for improving capital efficiency. One set of proposals…
An Efficient Algorithm for Optimal Routing Through Constant Function Market Makers
Theo Diamandis, Max Resnick, Tarun Chitra +1
Constant function market makers (CFMMs) such as Uniswap have facilitated trillions of dollars of digital asset trades and have billions of dollars of liquidity. One natural questio…
Credible, Optimal Auctions via Public Broadcast
Tarun Chitra, Matheus V. X. Ferreira, Kshitij Kulkarni
We study auction design in a setting where agents can communicate over a censorship-resistant broadcast channel like the ones we can implement over a public blockchain. We seek to…
