Strategy‐proof and group strategy‐proof stable mechanisms: An equivalence

Abstract

We prove that group strategy‐proofness and strategy‐proofness are equivalent requirements on stable mechanisms in priority‐based resource allocation problems with multi‐unit demand. The result extends to the model with contracts.
