Infinite Color Urn Models., Debleena Thacker Dr.
Doctoral Theses
In recent years, there has been a wide variety of work on random reinforcement models of various kinds. Urn models form an important class of random reinforcement models, with numerous applications in engineering and informatics and bioscience. In recent years there have been several works on different kinds of urn models and their generalizations. For occupancy urn models, where one considers recursive addition of balls into finite or infinite number of boxes, there are some works which introduce models with infinitely many colors, typically represented by the boxes.As observed in [51], the earliest mentions of urn models are in the …

Essays On Strategy-Proofness And Implementation., Sonal Yadav Dr.
Doctoral Theses
This thesis comprises of three chapters relating to strategy-proofness and implementation. We provide a brief description of each chapter below.1.1 A Hurwicz Type Result in a Model with Public Good Production We consider a two-good model with an arbitrary number of agents. One of the goods is a public good and the other is a private good. Each agent has an endowment of the private good and the private good can be converted into the public good using a well-behaved production function. A Social Choice Function (SCF) associates an allocation with each admissible preference profile. We impose the following requirements …
