All-pay Auctions with Affiliated Values
This paper analyzes all-pay auctions where the bidders have affiliated values for the object for sale and where the signals take binary values. Since signals are correlated, high signals indicate a high degree of competition in the auction and since even losing bidders must pay their bid, non-monotonic equilibria arise. We show that the game has a unique symmetric equilibrium, and that whenever...
متن کاملAll-Pay-All Auctions
We consider a class of auctions in which bidders receive (asymmetric) shares of the amount of money raised. Examples include corporate takeovers when potential acquirers have “toeholds” and auctions used to raise money for a public good. We show that the optimal selling mechanism in these cases is a simple “all-pay-all” auction in which all bidders pay a weighted sum of all bids. When bidders r...
متن کاملAll-Pay Auctions with Ties
We study the two-player, complete information all-pay auction in which a tie ensues if neither player outbids the other by more than a given amount. In the event of a tie, each player receives an identical fraction of the winning prize. Thus players engage in two margins of competition: losing versus tying, and tying versus winning. Two pertinent parameters are the margin required for victory a...
متن کاملOn the continuous equilibria of affiliated-value, all-pay auctions with private budget constraints
We consider all-pay auctions in the presence of interdependent, affiliated valuations and private budget constraints. For the sealed-bid, all-pay auction we characterize a symmetric equilibrium in continuous strategies for the case of N bidders. Budget constraints encourage more aggressive bidding among participants with large endowments and intermediate valuations. We extend our results to the...
متن کاملDynamic All-pay Auctions¤
In wars of attrition, players choose how long they bid, but not how much. In all-pay auctions, players choose how much to bid, but not for how long. We study an all-pay auction where two players can spread their bids over two periods. The ...rst period bid is used to in‡uence payo¤s and beliefs of the opponent. The analysis reveals who is blu¢ng, creating an impression of strength that lures th...
