Simultaneous auctions for complementary goods
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper studies an environment of simultaneous, separate, first-price auctions for complementary goods. Agents observe private values of each good before making bids, and the complementarity between goods is explicitly incorporated in their utility. For simplicity, a model is presented with two first-price auctions and two bidders. We show that a monotone pure-strategy Bayesian Nash Equilibrium exists in the environment.

متن کاملAchieving Simultaneous Spectrum Utilization and Revenue Improvements in Practical Wireless Spectrum Auctions
Spectrum is a valuable, scarce and finite natural resource that is needed for many different applications, so efficient use of the scarce radio spectrum is important for accommodating the rapid growth of wireless communications. Spectrum auctions are one of the best-known market-based solutions to improve the efficiency of spectrum use. However, Spectrum auctions are fundamentally differen...

Suppose you want to buy a used Canon AE1 SLR camera at an online auction. It would be quite a daunting task to manually monitor prices and make bidding decisions at all web sites currently offering the camera—especially if accessories such as a flash and a tripod are sometimes bundled with the camera and sometimes auctioned separately. However, for the next generation of trading agents, autonom...
متن کاملAutonomous Bidding Agents in the Trading Agent Competition
A natural offshoot of the growing prevalence of online auctions is the creation of autonomous bidding agents that monitor and participate in these auctions. It is straightforward to write a bidding agent to participate in an online auction for a single good, particularly when the value of that good is fixed ahead of time: the agent can bid slightly over the ask price until the auction closes or...
