Balanced allocation with succinct representation
Motivated by applications in guaranteed delivery in computational advertising, we consider the general problem of balanced allocation in a bipartite supply-demand setting. Our formulation captures the notion of deviation from being balanced by a convex penalty function.

Balanced allocation on hypergraphs
We consider a variation of balls-into-bins which randomly allocates $m$ balls into $n$ bins. Following Godfrey's model (SODA, 2008), we assume that each ball $t$, $1\le t\le m$, comes with a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}^{(t)}=\{B_1,B_2,\ldots,B_{s_t}\}$, and each edge $B\in\mathcal{H}^{(t)}$ contains at least a logarithmic number of bins.

The power of thinning in balanced allocation [PDF]
Balls are sequentially allocated into $n$ bins as follows: for each ball, an independent, uniformly random bin is generated. An overseer may then choose to either allocate the ball to this bin, or else the ball is allocated to a new independent uniformly random bin.

Balanced allocation on graphs [PDF]
In this paper, we study the two choice balls and bins process when balls are not allowed to choose any two random bins, but only bins that are connected by an edge in an underlying graph. We show that for $n$ balls and $n$ bins, if the graph is almost regular with degree $n^ε$, where $ε$ is not too small, the previous bounds on the maximum load ...

We introduce balancedness a fairness axiom in house allocation problems. It requires a mechanism to assign the top choice, the second top choice, and so on, on the same number of profiles for each agent. This axiom guarantees equal treatment of all agents at the stage in which the mechanism is announced when all preference profiles are equally likely ...

Balanced Allocations with the Choice of Noise
We consider the allocation of m balls (jobs) into n bins (servers). In the standard Two-Choice process, at each step t =1,2,... ,m we first sample two randomly chosen bins, compare their two loads and then place a ball in

Risk allocation under liquidity constraints [PDF]
Risk allocation games are cooperative games that are used to attribute the risk of a financial entity to its divisions. In this paper, we extend the literature on risk allocation games by incorporating liquidity considerations.

Resource balancing control allocation [PDF]
Next generation aircraft with a large number of actuators will require advanced control allocation methods to compute the actuator commands needed to follow desired trajectories while respecting system constraints. Previously, algorithms were proposed to minimize the l 1 or l 2 norms of the tracking error and of the control effort.
