For Vertex Cover auctions, the vertices are owned by selfish and rational agents, and the auctioneer wants to purchase a vertex cover from them. For k-flow auctions, the edges are owned by the agents, and the auctioneer wants to purchase k edge-disjoint s-t paths, for given s and t. In the same setting, for cut auctions, the auctioneer wants to purchase an s-t cut. Only the agents know their costs, and the auctioneer needs to select a feasible set ","authors_text":"Cristopher Moore, David Kempe, Mahyar Salek","cross_cats":["cs.GT"],"headline":"","license":"http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/","primary_cat":"cs.CC","submitted_at":"2009-12-17T02:40:36Z","title":"Frugal and Truthful Auctions for Vertex Covers, Flows, and Cuts"},"references":{"count":0,"internal_anchors":0,"resolved_work":0,"sample":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"0912.3310","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"created_at":null,"id":null,"model_set":{},"one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"pith_extraction_headline":"","strongest_claim":"","weakest_assumption":""}},"verdict_id":null}}],"author_attestations":[],"timestamp_anchors":[],"storage_attestations":[],"citation_signatures":[],"replication_records":[],"corrections":[],"mirror_hints":[],"record_created":{"event_id":"sha256:c986bb75d263b6a22dc75806fed309947a426ddcb70c28fa7f458d6c4c51c72a","target":"record","created_at":"2026-05-18T04:20:13Z","signer":{"key_id":"pith-v1-2026-05","public_key_fingerprint":"8d4b5ee74e4693bcd1df2446408b0d54","signer_id":"pith.science","signer_type":"pith_registry"},"payload":{"attestation_state":"computed","canonical_record":{"metadata":{"abstract_canon_sha256":"0c71afebd4062ffe32fc3b5d258c9757aff76f5a7533cecc2744aa29574c6bd9","cross_cats_sorted":["cs.GT"],"license":"http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/","primary_cat":"cs.CC","submitted_at":"2009-12-17T02:40:36Z","title_canon_sha256":"02c45a50758a462b2c687bdc4b948d64a748081da6623549594cc610560f24eb"},"schema_version":"1.0","source":{"id":"0912.3310","kind":"arxiv","version":2}},"canonical_sha256":"b75b4b92c7626796c37fe3d3ef1d9329710d9034d1868b7b8e1ed86a9b31618f","receipt":{"algorithm":"ed25519","builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1","canonical_sha256":"b75b4b92c7626796c37fe3d3ef1d9329710d9034d1868b7b8e1ed86a9b31618f","first_computed_at":"2026-05-18T04:20:13.273734Z","key_id":"pith-v1-2026-05","kind":"pith_receipt","last_reissued_at":"2026-05-18T04:20:13.273734Z","public_key_fingerprint":"8d4b5ee74e4693bcd1df2446408b0d54","receipt_version":"0.3","signature_b64":"swY0BsOEq77dqdGngkD7+sO6gyLiF52a8CBMOiEJHj2i0wUQmtgPgE8VU9PsZttNWxSaXdOSKvKSxrm87HduBg==","signature_status":"signed_v1","signed_at":"2026-05-18T04:20:13.274257Z","signed_message":"canonical_sha256_bytes"},"source_id":"0912.3310","source_kind":"arxiv","source_version":2}}},"equivocations":[],"invalid_events":[],"applied_event_ids":["sha256:c986bb75d263b6a22dc75806fed309947a426ddcb70c28fa7f458d6c4c51c72a","sha256:01a9add99c8dd2c0425bc2b59eec968441937075f1f260fa15bab0b205f234b1"],"state_sha256":"e047011073e49d615f84add9cd2d0f6c5ee4386fcef3d0837de2dfc6ef20043a"}
