Notes

Throughout my time doing research, I often struggled to find resources that connected recent advances in microeconomics, optimization, mathematics, and computer science that were relevant to my field. As a result, to make sense of everything I was reading, I decided to come up with a set of notes for some of the most relevant topics. I hope they can be of help to anyone looking to get introduced to the field!

Topic Surveys

Introduction to Markets for Computer Scientists

Convex Analysis and Optimization for Econ-CS

Online Learning and Online Convex Optimization (Notes compiled together with Sadie Zhao)

Miscellaneous Notes

Walrasian Equilibria in Indivisible and Divisible Settings: Linear and Convex Programming Duality

Fair Division, Wagering, and Their Equivalence

Parimutuel Betting and Fisher Markets

Auction Theory

Disclaimer: Some of these notes are not entirely finished, and some have been edited more than others. I am sharing them even if they are not complete, since they could definitely help those entering the field.
