When is manipulation all about the ones and twos?*

چکیده

A mechanism is pairwise strategy-proof if groups of size one and two never have an incentive to manipulate. When agents have strict preferences over their own outcomes, I show that pairwise strategy-proofness even eliminates incentives for any group of agents to manipulate, therefore implying group strategy-proofness. It is also equivalent to Maskin monotonicity. I obtain the equivalence results assuming preference domains satisfy a richness condition. Decomposing richness into two parts, I explore what brings about the equivalence. The results apply to school choice and matching with contracts, indivisible object allocation, and economies with private or public goods with single-peaked preferences.

Some Unique Ternary Constant-composition Codes

The uniqueness of some ternary constant-composition codes is proved by combinato-rial methods. 1. Introduction. For all basic notions and facts about coding theory which are not introduced here we refer to [3]. All codes to be considered are ternary constant-composition codes. Ternary constant-composition (TCC) codes of length n are codes with constant composition of " zeros " , " ones " and " ...

A generalization of Chao's estimator for covariate information.

This note generalizes Chao's estimator of population size for closed capture-recapture studies if covariates are available. Chao's estimator was developed under unobserved heterogeneity in which case it represents a lower bound of the population size. If observed heterogeneity is available in form of covariates we show how this information can be used to reduce the bias of Chao's estimator. The...
