Decentralized Signaling Mechanisms
Niloufar Mirzavand Boroujeni, Krishnamurthy Iyer, William L. Cooper
We study a system composed of multiple distinct service locations that aims to convince customers to join the system by providing information to customers. We cast the system's inf…
How to sell a service with uncertain outcomes
Krishnamurthy Iyer, Alec Sun, Haifeng Xu +1
Motivated by the recent popularity of machine learning training services, we introduce a contract design problem in which a provider sells a service that results in an outcome of u…
Markov Persuasion Processes with Endogenous Agent Beliefs
Krishnamurthy Iyer, Haifeng Xu, You Zu
We consider a dynamic Bayesian persuasion setting where a single long-lived sender persuades a stream of ``short-lived'' agents (receivers) by sharing information about a payoff-re…
Persuading Risk-Conscious Agents: A Geometric Approach
Jerry Anunrojwong, Krishnamurthy Iyer, David Lingenbrink
We consider a persuasion problem between a sender and a receiver whose utility may be nonlinear in her belief; we call such receivers risk-conscious. Such utility models arise when…
Learning to Persuade on the Fly: Robustness Against Ignorance
You Zu, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Haifeng Xu
Motivated by information sharing in online platforms, we study repeated persuasion between a sender and a stream of receivers where at each time, the sender observes a payoff-relev…
Information Design for Congested Social Services: Optimal Need-Based Persuasion
Jerry Anunrojwong, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Vahideh Manshadi
We study the effectiveness of information design in reducing congestion in social services catering to users with varied levels of need. In the absence of price discrimination and…
Information Design in Spatial Resource Competition
Pu Yang, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Peter Frazier
We consider the information design problem in spatial resource competition settings. Agents gather at a location deciding whether to move to another location for possibly higher le…
Mean Field Equilibria for Resource Competition in Spatial Settings
Pu Yang, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Peter Frazier
We study a model of competition among nomadic agents for time-varying and location-specific resources, arising in crowd-sourced transportation services, online communities, and tra…
Mean Field Equilibria for Competitive Exploration in Resource Sharing Settings
Pu Yang, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Peter Frazier
We consider a model of nomadic agents exploring and competing for time-varying location-specific resources, arising in crowdsourced transportation services, online communities, and…
Multi-Unit Facility Location Games
Omer Ben-Porat, Moshe Tennenholtz
Facility location games have been a topic of major interest in economics, operations research and computer science, starting from the seminal work by Hotelling. In the classical pu…
