摘要翻译:
线性Fisher市场是一种基本的经济模型,在公平分工和大规模互联网市场中都有应用。在有限维的$N$购买者和$M$物品的情况下,可以用Eisenberg-Gale凸规划计算市场均衡。在大规模网络广告和公平分割应用的推动下,本文考虑了一个线性Fisher市场的推广,其中有一个有限的购买者集和一个连续的商品集。我们将Eisenberg-Gale凸规划及其对偶推广到这个无穷维集合,从而得到Banach空间优化问题。证明了最优解的存在性、强对偶性以及KKT型条件的必要性和充分性。所有这些性质都是通过非标准变元建立的,从而规避了对偶理论在无限维Banach空间上最优化的局限性。此外,我们还证明了存在一个纯均衡分配,即项目空间的一个划分。当项目空间为闭区间且购买者具有分段线性估价时,我们证明了无限维分配上的Eisenberg-Gale型凸规划可转化为有限维凸锥规划,并利用基于原-对偶内点法的现有优化软件有效地求解该规划。在凸圆锥曲线重构的基础上,我们开发了第一个多项式时间切饼算法,该算法实现了Pareto最优性、无嫉妒性和比例性。对于一般的买方估值或买方数量非常大的情况,我们提出了用随机对偶平均计算市场均衡,它以高概率找到近似均衡价格。最后,我们讨论了上述结果如何容易地推广到拟线性效用的情形。

英文摘要:
Linear Fisher markets are a fundamental economic model with applications in fair division as well as large-scale Internet markets. In the finite-dimensional case of $n$ buyers and $m$ items, a market equilibrium can be computed using the Eisenberg-Gale convex program. Motivated by large-scale Internet advertising and fair division applications, this paper considers a generalization of a linear Fisher market where there is a finite set of buyers and a continuum of items. We introduce generalizations of the Eisenberg-Gale convex program and its dual to this infinite-dimensional setting, which leads to Banach-space optimization problems. We establish existence of optimal solutions, strong duality, as well as necessity and sufficiency of KKT-type conditions. All these properties are established via non-standard arguments, which circumvent the limitations of duality theory in optimization over infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. Furthermore, we show that there exists a pure equilibrium allocation, i.e., a division of the item space. When the item space is a closed interval and buyers have piecewise linear valuations, we show that the Eisenberg-Gale-type convex program over the infinite-dimensional allocations can be reformulated as a finite-dimensional convex conic program, which can be solved efficiently using off-the-shelf optimization software based on primal-dual interior-point methods. Based on our convex conic reformulation, we develop the first polynomial-time cake-cutting algorithm that achieves Pareto optimality, envy-freeness, and proportionality. For general buyer valuations or a very large number of buyers, we propose computing market equilibrium using stochastic dual averaging, which finds approximate equilibrium prices with high probability. Finally, we discuss how the above results easily extend to the case of quasilinear utilities.
