Fair distributions for more participants than allocations

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the existence of fair distributions when we have more guests than pieces to allocate, focusing on envy-free distributions among those who receive a piece. The conditions on the demand from the guests can be weakened from those of classic cake-cutting and rent-splitting results of Stromquist, Woodall, and Su. We extend existing variations of the cake-cutting problem with secretive guests and those that resist the removal of any sufficiently small set of guests.
