Boundaries to Single-Agent Stability in Additively Separable Hedonic Games

Authors: Martin Bullinger

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 241, 47th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2022)


Abstract
Coalition formation considers the question of how to partition a set of agents into coalitions with respect to their preferences. Additively separable hedonic games (ASHGs) are a dominant model where cardinal single-agent values are aggregated into preferences by taking sums. Output partitions are typically measured by means of stability, and we follow this approach by considering stability based on single-agent movements (to join other coalitions), where a coalition is defined as stable if there exists no beneficial single-agent deviation. Permissible deviations should always lead to an improvement for the deviator, but they may also be constrained by demanding the consent of agents involved in the deviations, i.e., by agents in the abandoned or welcoming coalition. Most of the existing research focuses on the unanimous consent of one or both of these coalitions, but more recent research relaxes this to majority-based consent. Our contribution is twofold. First, we settle the computational complexity of the existence of contractually Nash stable partitions, where deviations are constrained by the unanimous consent of the abandoned coalition. This resolves the complexity of the last classical stability notion for ASHGs. Second, we identify clear boundaries to the tractability of stable partitions under majority-based stability concepts by proving elaborate hardness results for restricted classes of ASHGs. Slight further restrictions lead to positive results.

Card-Based ZKP Protocols for Takuzu and Juosan

Authors: Daiki Miyahara, Léo Robert, Pascal Lafourcade, So Takeshige, Takaaki Mizuki, Kazumasa Shinagawa, Atsuki Nagao, and Hideaki Sone

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 157, 10th International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN 2021) (2020)


Abstract
Takuzu and Juosan are logical Nikoli games in the spirit of Sudoku. In Takuzu, a grid must be filled with 0’s and 1’s under specific constraints. In Juosan, the grid must be filled with vertical and horizontal dashes with specific constraints. We give physical algorithms using cards to realize zero-knowledge proofs for those games. The goal is to allow a player to show that he/she has the solution without revealing it. Previous work on Takuzu showed a protocol with multiple instances needed. We propose two improvements: only one instance needed and a soundness proof. We also propose a similar proof for Juosan game.
