Cost-sharing in Parking Games [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science
In this paper, we study the total displacement statistic of parking functions from the perspective of cooperative game theory. We introduce parking games, which are coalitional cost-sharing games in characteristic function form derived from the total ...

A class of extensions of Restricted (s, t)-Wythoff’s game

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
Restricted (s, t)-Wythoff’s game, introduced by Liu et al. in 2014, is an impartial combinatorial game. We define and solve a class of games obtained from Restricted (s, t)-Wythoff’s game by adjoining to it some subsets of its P-positions as additional ...

Gaming in Combinatorial Clock Auctions [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
textabstractIn recent years, Combinatorial Clock Auctions (CCAs) have been used around the world to allocate frequency spectrum for mobile telecom licenses. CCAs are claimed to significantly reduce the scope for gaming or strategic bidding. In this paper, we show, however, that CCAs significantly enhance the possibilities for strategic bidding.
