| Research Abstract |
In indivisible good economies such as auction or matching, we studied the problem of designing economic mechanisms。For example, in an auction model without the quasi-linearity assumption on preferences, we offered an(axiomatic) characterization of second price auctions on the basis of equity and strategy-proofness。Furthermore, we characterized a rule that is stable and one-sided strategy-proof rule in a matching model。We also characterized the uniform rule on the basis of a weak version of strategy-proofness in allotment economies。In our discussions, we weakened various assumptions or conditions to obtain practical mechanisms.
