Budget Constraints Impact on Multi Unit Auctions
نویسنده
چکیده
We study multi unit auctions in presence of budget constraints. This situation is very common in real world but has not received proper attention in theoretical literature. We will study the impact of budget on the different aspects of multi unit auctions. These results try to define a frame work in which multi unit auctions with budget constraints are working and problem we are facing in designing mechanisms.

Multi-unit Auctions with Budget Constraints
Motivated by sponsored search auctions, we study multi-unit auctions with budget constraints. In the mechanism we propose, Sort-Cut, understating budgets or values is weakly dominated. Since Sort-Cuts revenue is increasing in budgets and values, all kinds of equilibrium deviations from true valuations turn out to be bene cial to the auctioneer. We show that the revenue of Sort-Cut can be an or...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Multi-Attribute Continuous Double Auction Mechanisms
Auctions have been as a competitive method of buying and selling valuable or rare items for a long time. Single-sided auctions in which participants negotiate on a single attribute (e.g. price) are very popular. Double auctions and negotiation on multiple attributes create more advantages compared to single-sided and single-attribute auctions. Nonetheless, this adds the complexity of the auctio...

متن کاملTowards agents participating in realistic multi-unit sealed-bid auctions
When autonomous agents decide on their bidding strategies in real world auctions, they have a number of concerns that go beyond the models that are normally analyzed in traditional auction theory. Oftentimes, the agents have budget constraints and the auctions have a reserve price, both of which restrict the bids the agents can place. In addition, their attitude need not be risk-neutral and the...
متن کاملOverbidding and inefficiencies in multi-unit Vickrey auctions for normal goods
I examine bid behavior in uniform-price auctions and multi-unit Vickrey auctions, without the standard quasilinearity restriction on bidder preferences. Instead of assuming quasilinearity, I assume that bidders have weakly positive wealth effects, i.e. the goods are normal goods. My setting nests quasilinearity, but also allows for budget constraints, financial constraints, and risk aversion. I...
