On voting and facility location

M Feldman, A Fiat, I Golomb - Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference …, 2016 - dl.acm.org
We study mechanisms for candidate selection that seek to minimize the social cost, where
voters and candidates are associated with points in some underlying metric space. The …

On the power of deterministic mechanisms for facility location games

D Fotakis, C Tzamos - ACM Transactions on Economics and …, 2014 - dl.acm.org
We consider K-Facility Location games, where n strategic agents report their locations in a
metric space and a mechanism maps them to K facilities. The agents seek to minimize their …

Approximate mechanism design for distributed facility location

A Filos-Ratsikas, AA Voudouris - … September 21–24, 2021, Proceedings 14, 2021 - Springer
We consider a single-facility location problem, where agents are positioned on the real line
and are partitioned into multiple disjoint districts. The goal is to choose a location (where a …

Facility location with minimax envy

Q Cai, A Filos-Ratsikas, P Tang - 2016 - ora.ox.ac.uk
We study the problem of locating a public facility on a real line or an interval, when agents'
costs are their (expected) distances from the location of the facility. Our goal is to minimize …

[PDF][PDF] Extended ranking mechanisms for the m-capacitated facility location problem in bayesian mechanism design

G Auricchio, J Zhang, M Zhang - Proceedings of the 23rd International …, 2024 - ifaamas.org
Mechanism Design seeks to establish protocols for aggregating the private information of a
set of agents to optimize a global objective. Nonetheless, optimizing a communal goal solely …

Strategyproof mechanism for two heterogeneous facilities with constant approximation ratio

M Li, P Lu, Y Yao, J Zhang - arxiv preprint arxiv:1907.08918, 2019 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we study the two-facility location game on a line with optional preference
where the acceptable set of facilities for each agent could be different and an agent's cost is …
