Mechanism Design with Partial Revelation
Classic direct mechanisms require full type (or utility) revelation from participating agents, something that can be very difficult in practical multi-attribute settings. In this...

Minimizing communication cost in a distributed Bayesian network using a decentralized MDP
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...

Computational criticisms of the revelation principle
The revelation principle is a cornerstone tool in mechanism design. It states that one can restrict attention, without loss in the designer’s objective, to mechanisms in which A...
