课程编码：1201Z1M07002H 英文名称：Topics in Mechanism Design 课时：20 学分：1.00 课程属性：高级强化课 主讲教师：胡震禹

The lectures intend to cover the following topics.
? Screening: mechanism design with one seller and one buyer. We will review the basic approach of Myerson, and look at the problem from different angles.
? Auction: mechanism design with one seller and multiple buyers. We will also discuss reduced form and Border’s theorem.
? Robust mechanism design. We will discuss some recent research on robust screening and some related problems.

Whenever possible, an optimization perspective to mechanism design will be emphasized. In this regard, a good knowledge in linear programming would be very helpful.

Zhenyu Hu is now an Associate Professor and Dean's Chair Professor of National University of Singapore. He received his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Prior to that, he obtained his B.Sc. in Applied Mathematics from Sun Yat-sen University. He worked as a Research Summer Intern at IBM T.J. Watson Research Center in 2014. He is the recipient of Dobrovolny Scholarship and William A. Chittenden Award from UIUC. Zhenyu's current research focuses on applying and developing rigorous quantitative methods to analyze and solve practical problems in pricing analytics and supply chain management. Methodologically, he is also interested in sequential decision making and game theory.
