Negative Externalities and Evolutionary Implementation
We model externality abatement as an implementation problem. A social planner would like to ensure efficient behavior among a group of agents whose actions are sources of externalities. However, the planner has limited information about the agents' preferences, and he is unable to distinguish individual agents except through their action choices. We prove that if a concavity condition on aggreg...
متن کاملOn Allocations with Negative Externalities
We consider the problem of a monopolist seller who wants to sell some items to a set of buyers. The buyers are strategic, unit-demand, and connected by a social network. Furthermore, the utility of a buyer is a decreasing function of the number of neighbors who do not own the item. In other words, they exhibit negative externalities, deriving utility from being unique in their purchases. In thi...

If platforms can charge users as well...
متن کاملNegative Externalities , Competition , and Consumer Choice *

This paper examines how the selectivity of negative externalities in such situations affects the competitive equilibrium and the desirability of an externality-reducing public policy. Selective negative externalities create network externalities, but outcomes may differ greatly from typ...

Therefore, new trading mechanisms for data need to be designed. In this paper, we model the data market as an auction with negative externalities, and design practical mechanisms for data trading. Specifically, we propo...
