Extension of additive valuations to general valuations on the existence of EFX

R Mahara - Mathematics of Operations Research, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
Envy freeness is one of the most widely studied notions in fair division. Because envy-free
allocations do not always exist when items are indivisible, several relaxations have been …

Approximating Nash social welfare under submodular valuations through (un) matchings

We study the problem of approximating maximum Nash social welfare (NSW) when
allocating m indivisible items among n asymmetric agents with submodular valuations. The …

Approximating Nash social welfare under Rado valuations

J Garg, E Husić, LA Végh - Proceedings of the 53rd Annual ACM …, 2021 - dl.acm.org
We consider the problem of approximating maximum Nash social welfare (NSW) while
allocating a set of indivisible items to n agents. The NSW is a popular objective that provides …

Improved maximin guarantees for subadditive and fractionally subadditive fair allocation problem

M Seddighin, S Seddighin - Artificial Intelligence, 2024 - Elsevier
In this work, we study the maximin share fairness notion (MMS) for allocation of indivisible
goods in the subadditive and fractionally subadditive settings. While previous work refutes …

Fair allocation of indivisible goods: Beyond additive valuations

M Ghodsi, MT HajiAghayi, M Seddighin, S Seddighin… - Artificial Intelligence, 2022 - Elsevier
We conduct a study on the problem of fair allocation of indivisible goods when maximin
share [1] is used as the measure of fairness. Most of the current studies on this notion are …

Maximizing Nash social welfare in 2-value instances

H Akrami, BR Chaudhury, M Hoefer… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - ojs.aaai.org
We consider the problem of maximizing the Nash social welfare when allocating a set G of
indivisible goods to a set N of agents. We study instances, in which all agents have 2-value …

A note on approximating weighted Nash social welfare with additive valuations

Y Feng, S Li - arxiv preprint arxiv:2404.15607, 2024 - arxiv.org
We give the first $ O (1) $-approximation for the weighted Nash Social Welfare problem with
additive valuations. The approximation ratio we obtain is $ e^{1/e}+\epsilon\approx …

We present a constant-factor approximation algorithm for the Nash Social Welfare (NSW)
maximization problem with subadditive valuations accessible via demand queries. More …

Approximation algorithms for the weighted Nash social welfare via convex and non-convex programs

A Brown, A Laddha, MR Pittu, M Singh - Proceedings of the 2024 Annual ACM …, 2024 - SIAM
In an instance of the weighted Nash Social Welfare problem, we are given a set of m
indivisible items, G, and n agents, A, where each agent i∈ A has a valuation vij≥ 0 for each …
