SEAL: Sealed-Bid Auction Without Auctioneers [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 2020 We propose the first auctioneer-free sealed-bid auction protocol with a linear computation and communication complexity O(c), c being the bit length of the bid price. Our protocol, called Self-Enforcing Auction Lot (SEAL), operates in a decentralized setting, where bidders jointly compute the maximum bid while preserving the privacy of losing bids.

Auction Design and Auction Outcomes [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017 We study the impact of spectrum auction design on the prices paid by telecommunications operators for two decades across 85 countries. Our empirical strategy combines information about competition in the local market, the level of adoption and a wide range of socio-economic indicators and process specific variables.

Tight Bounds for the Price of Anarchy of Simultaneous First Price Auctions [PDF]
, 2015 We study the Price of Anarchy of simultaneous first-price auctions for buyers with submodular and subadditive valuations. The current best upper bounds for the Bayesian Price of Anarchy of these auctions are e/(e-1) [Syrgkanis and Tardos 2013] and 2 ...

Auctions with options to re-auction [PDF]
International Journal of Economic Theory, 2006 We examine the role of seller bidding and reserve prices in an infinitely repeated independent-private-value (IPV) ascending-price auction.The seller has a single object that she values at zero.At the end of any auction round, she may either sell to the highest bidder or pass-in the object and hold a new auction next period.New bidders are drawn ...

International Journal of Quantum Information, 2007 We present a quantum auction protocol using superpositions to represent bids and distributed search to identify the winner(s). Measuring the final quantum state gives the auction outcome while simultaneously destroying the superposition. Thus, non-winning bids are never revealed.
