This review is designed to introduce mathematicians and computational scientists to quantum computing (QC) through the lens of uncertainty quantification (UQ) by presenting a mathe…
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…

In markets with budget-constrained buyers, competitive equilibria need not be efficient in the utilitarian sense, or maximise the seller's revenue. We consider a setting with multi…
Selling Multiple Complements with Packaging Costs
Simon Finster
We consider a package assignment problem with multiple units of indivisible items. The seller can specify preferences over partitions of their supply between buyers as packaging co…
Welfare-Maximizing Pooled Testing
Simon Finster, Michelle González Amador, Edwin Lock +3
Pooled testing increases the reach of scarce diagnostic resources, but optimally composing pools for individuals differing in infection risk and the utility they derive from a nega…
