On Incentive Compatible Competitive Selection Protocol
نویسندگان
چکیده
The selection problem of m highest ranked out of n candidates is considered for a model while the relative ranking of two candidates is obtained through their pairwise comparison. Deviating from the standard model, it is assumed in this article that the outcome of a pairwise comparison may be manipulated by the two participants. The higher ranked party may intentionally lose to the lower ranked party in order to gain group benefit. We discuss incentive compatible mechanism design issues for such scenarios and develop both possibility and impossibility results.

Dynamic Price Sequence and Incentive Compatibility
We introduce and study a new auction model in which a certain type of goods is offered over a period of time, and buyers arrive at different times and stay until a common deadline (unless their purchase requests have been fulfilled). We examine in this model incentive compatible auction protocols (i.e., those that induce participants to bid their true valuations). We establish an interesting co...
متن کاملAn Incentive-Compatible Mechanism for all Settings: Chuck Norris
A very important property for any mechanism is incentive-compatibility. A mechanism is incentive-compatible if no agent has an incentive not to follow the protocol. In this paper we present a new meta-mechanism that can be applied to any existing mechanism to make it incentive compatible. This meta-mechanism is Chuck Norris. This shows that any mechanism can be made incentive-compatible, and th...

متن کاملIncentives in Experiments with Objective Lotteries
When subjects in an experiment are given multiple decisions, their choices in one decision may be distorted by the choices made in others. An experiment’s payment mechanism is incentive compatible if no such distortions occur. Azrieli et al. (2014) provide two characterizations of incentive compatible mechanisms in a general decisiontheoretic framework in subjects’ choices are represented as Sa...
