Title: Social Welfare Loss in Hybrid Multi-Unit Auctions
Date: Friday 12 May 2023
Time: 15:00-16:25
Location: Room L2.06, ILLC Lab42, Science Park 900, Amsterdam

Abstract:
Corruption in auctions, where an auctioneer engages in bid rigging with one (or several) of the bidders, occurs rather frequently in practice, especially in the public sector (e.g., in construction and procurement auctions). We study the social welfare loss caused by corrupt auctioneers, both in single-item and multi-unit auctions.
