Abstract
En 中文
We describe a new class of mechanisms-referred to as booster draft mechanisms-for allocating \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$n\times m$$\end{document} indivisible objects among n individuals with responsive preferences. Specifically, n individuals are assigned m objects each, from m different sets of size n-called boosters-and simply receive their highest ranked object, among the remaining objects in each booster, when it is their turn to choose. We contrast booster draft mechanisms with two well-known alternatives: serial dictatorship and draft mechanisms. Our results suggest that booster draft mechanisms pose a viable alternative for resolving multi-object assignment problems.
