In this research note, we lay some groundwork for analyzing the manipulability of core-selecting payment rules in combinatorial auctions. In particular, we focus on payment rules based on the bidders’ Shapley values. We define a sensitivity metric, and provide analytical results for this metric in LLG, for six different payment vectors used as reference points for minimum-revenue core-selecting payment rules. We furthermore show how this sensitivity affects the derivative of the resulting…

This paper presents a computational approach for finding good core-selecting payment rules for combinatorial auctions, and identifies a set of 20 "all-rounder rules" which beat Quadratic by a significant margin on efficiency, incentives, and revenue in all, or almost all domains.

An essential innovation of this algorithm is to separate the algorithm's search phase from the verification phase, which allows it to upper bound the $\varepsilon$ across the whole continuous value space without making assumptions about the mechanism.
