| Results and Impact | I presented this paper at a seminar called 'Optimization and Incentives', at the Centre for Mathematical Sciences, University of Cambridge. There were about 30 people in the audience, mostly post-graduate students. The idea of the seminar is to develop interest in how mathematics can be used to address questions of optimization, in particular, bringing in ideas from economics, so that the participants' incentives are aligned. |

| Results and Impact | Seminar on Discrete Mathematics and Game Theory, Dept. of Mathematics, London School of Economics This presentation was on work-in-progress, and involved one co-author, S. Damla Ahipasaoglu. The presentations on this work were continually revised as the work developed. The latest version appears with the output, 'Presentation at the Fourth Congress of the Game Theory Society', and involved two co-authors, S. Damla Ahipasaoglu and James Orlin. |
