Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical For the allocation of goods, we show that no competitive algorithm exists even when there are only three agents and propose an optimal 0.5-competitive algorithm for the case of two agents. For the allocation of chores, we propose a (2 1/n)-competitive algorithm for n 3 agents and a 2 1.414-competitive algorithm for two agents. Besides, we show that no algorithm can do better than 15/11 1.364competitive for two agents.
