We consider the price of stability for Nash and correlated equilibria of linear congestion games. The price of stability is the optimistic price of anarchy, the ratio of the cost ...

We introduce a new way to compute common intervals of K permutations based on a very simple and general notion of generators of common intervals. This formalism leads to simple an...
