''A decomposition of strategy-proofness in discrete resource allocation problems''
( 2022, Vol. 42 No.1 )
 
 
This note provides a characterization of strategy-proofness in discrete resource allocation problems. Based on it, we establish a theorem that has the following two corollaries: (i) the student-proposing deferred-acceptance (DA) rule for college admission problems is strategy-proof for students and (ii) the top-trading cycles (TTC) rule for housing markets is strategy-proof.
