Abstract:

As a means to facilitate efficient resource allocation, auctions are a fundamental tool in the modern economy and play a pivotal role in mechanism design theory. This talk will provide a brief introduction to auction design. We will discuss fundamental concepts, as well as some most recent advances in algorithmic auction design. We will also explore one of the most successful stories of auction theory being applied to modern online markets, the sponsored search auctions, and present the challenges therein from a computational viewpoint.
