Maximal Manipulation in Fair Allocation
SSRN Electronic Journal(2011)
摘要
We herein consider the problems of fairly allocating indivisible objects and money. The objective of the present study is to examine strategic manipulation under envy-free solutions. We therefore investigate the consequence of individual manipulation. Each individual is observed to obtain the welfare level of his “optimal” envy-free allocation by maximally manipulating the solutions. This maximal manipulation theorem leads to several fruitful results on the manipulability of envy-free solutions: (i) we present a characterization of non-manipulable preference profiles under a given envy-free solution; (ii) we analyze the set of Nash equilibrium allocations in the direct revelation games associated with a given envy-free solution; (iii) we formulate envy-free solutions that are strategy-proof for at least one individual; and (iv) we identify the functional form of the least manipulable envy-free solutions on the quasi-linear domain.
