What is Market Design : a Linear Programming Approach to Auctions and Matching about?

This textbook is intended to provide a one-semester course on market design. I am pri- marily targeting students with a background in computer science, information systems, mathematics, and management science. Hence, I will first introduce in Part I necessary concepts from game theory and mechanism design, as these students typically have not had the respective introductory courses. Parts II and III cover material which is more recent and is often not covered in microeconomics. One prerequisite for this book is a familiarity with linear and integer linear program- ming and an introductory course in calculus and probability theory. There are many introductory textbooks on these subjects which would provide an excellent start for the topics discussed throughout this book. The appendices summarize important results from mathematical optimization and should serve as a convenient reference for the reader and a brief introduction for those who have not studied the respective courses.

Who reads Market Design : a Linear Programming Approach to Auctions and Matching?

It is typically read by self-directed learners exploring a subject in depth.

Common subject areas: history, science, philosophy, social sciences.
