演講摘要 : We explore the implications of consistency in sequencing problems. We first identify all rules satisfying Pareto indifference, individual rationality, and consistency. Next, we ask whether there is a rule satisfying the three axioms together with either one of two additional own-time monotonicity requirements: an agent should lose (or gain) as a result of changes in his service time. As it turns out, the minimal incentive rule is the only rule satisfying Pareto indifference, individual rationality, consistency, and negative own-time monotonicity. On the other hand, the maximal incentive rule is the only rule satisfying Pareto indifference, individual rationality, consistency, and positive own-time monotonicity. We also investigate the implications of other monotonicity axioms in the context of sequencing problems.
