In this tutorial we present recent advances through the lens of approximation that surpass strong assumptions on information structures that were crucial in prior works, i.e., known valuation functions and offline setting with all bidders. Co-organized w/ Simon Mauras and Rebecca Reiffenhäuser.

From selling avant-garde art to online ads many auction scenarios involve bidders with interdependent values (who a priori may not know their own value as it depends on private information of others). How can we design "good" strategy-proof mechanisms in such settings?

The videos from our #ACMEC24 tutorial on "approximation mechanisms with interdependent values" are now available on @acmsigecom.bsky.social's YouTube (along with the other excellent tutorials)!🧵

This appeared in this EC (2024). Preprint here: arxiv.org/abs/2404.06293

Excited to talk about our paper on "Optimal Stopping with Interdependent Values" tomorrow on TCS+! Joint work with my awesome collaborators Simon Mauras and Rebecca Reiffenhäuser. We consider a simple model of online selection under partial information & interdependencies. I hope to see you there!
