An $O(\log n)$-Competitive Posted-Price Algorithm for Online Matching on the Line (2310.12394v1)
Published 19 Oct 2023 in cs.DS
Abstract: Motivated by demand-responsive parking pricing systems, we consider posted-price algorithms for the online metric matching problem. We give an $O(\log n)$-competitive posted-price randomized algorithm in the case that the metric space is a line. In particular, in this setting we show how to implement the ubiquitous guess-and-double technique using prices.
