We consider two efficiency criteria: Pareto-optimality and social welfare optimality. We provide a complete landscape on...

Bayesian Fair Division: Truthfulness in Picking Sequence with Correlated Valuations

Sequential allocation mechanisms contain a class of widely studied mechanisms (e.g., round-robin) in the fair division of indivisible goods, where agents take turns picking items in a predefined picking order. It is known that the sequential allocation mechanisms are not truthful: when an agent's most preferred item is...
