Strategic Bidding in Product-Mix, Sequential, and Simultaneous Auctions

Simon Finster
TL;DR: In this paper, a flexible bidder with unit demand, interested in buying any of the goods, competes against several inflexible bidders, each interested in only one specific good.

Modelling and solving of multidimensional auctions

TL;DR: The proposed model, called multidimensional auction, is a generaliz tion of an LP model of standard single item English auction, which illustrates the possibility to formulate and solve multiddimensional auctions as mathematical programming problems.
