Abstract

AbstractThis paper provides a technique for designing truthful mechanisms for a combinatorial optimization problem, which requires composition algorithms. We show that the composition algorithm \(A\circ B\) is monotone if the algorithm A and the algorithm B are both monotone. Then, we apply this technique to the two-dimensional orthogonal knapsack problem with provable approximation bounds, improving the previous results in [5].KeywordsMechanism designKnapsack auctionApproximation algorithms
