Download fileThe Pareto Dominant Strategy-Proof and Equitable Rule for Problems with Indivisible Goods
We study the problem of allocating indivisible goods to agents when monetary compensations are not allowed. Our central requirements are strategy-proofness and equity. For each
of two different cases of this problem we identify a strategy-proof and equitable [in the sense
of equal-treatment-of-equals, or envy-freeness] rule that Pareto dominates all other equitable
and strategy-proof rules.
