Efficiently Restructuring Sovereign Debt via Arctic Auctions with Convex Costs

Jugal Garg, Edwin Lock, Vijay V. Vazirani

We study the problem of computing competitive equilibria in the Arctic product-mix auction, originally developed for the Icelandic government for exchanging blocked financial accou…

Decentralized Trading Networks: Equilibria and Fairness

Simon Finster, Paul W. Goldberg, Edwin Lock +1

We explore stability and fairness considerations in decentralized networked markets with bilateral contracts, building on the trading networks framework [Hatfield et al., 2013]. In…

Avoiding the Worst: The Computational Complexity of Not Worst-Responding

Mete Şeref Ahunbay, Paul W. Goldberg, Edwin Lock +3

Finding, counting, or determining the existence of pure Nash equilibria, where players must play optimally given the others' actions, are known to be computationally intractable pr…

Decentralized Convergence to Equilibrium Prices in Trading Networks

Edwin Lock, Benjamin Patrick Evans, Eleonora Kreacic +4

We propose a decentralized market model in which agents can negotiate bilateral contracts. This builds on a similar, but centralized, model of trading networks introduced by Hatfie…

The Computational Complexity of the Housing Market

Edwin Lock, Zephyr Qiu, Alexander Teytelboym

We prove that the classic problem of finding a competitive equilibrium in an exchange economy with indivisible goods, money, and unit-demand agents is PPAD-complete. In this "housi…
