Online Fair Division with Additional Information
We study the problem of fairly allocating indivisible goods to agents in an online setting, where goods arrive sequentially and must be allocated irrevocably to agents. Focusing on the popular fairness notions of envy-freeness, proportionality, and maximin share fairness (and their approximate variants), we ask how the availability of information on future goods influences the existence and approximability of fair allocations. In the absence of any such information, we establish strong impossib…

Was going to one bar but it turned out to be karaoke night so hard pass.
Walked on, past a bar called “The Eccentric“, and obviously I had to check it out. I am after all something of an eccentric myself, I hope.
The name is not misleading. You enter down a few steps into what looks like their liquor storage. The bar has more bottles of booze than I have ever seen in any bar. Apparently in fairly random order, but I am sure they have a very sophisticated system. Only customer so …

Orientation dynamics of a spheroid in the simple shear flow of a weakly elastic fluid
We investigate the orientation dynamics of a neutrally buoyant spheroid, of an arbitrary aspect ratio ($κ$), freely rotating in a weakly viscoelastic fluid undergoing simple shear flow. Weak elasticity is characterized by a small but finite Deborah number ($De$), and the suspending fluid rheology is therefore modeled as a second-order fluid, with the constitutive equation involving a material parameter $ε$ related to the ratio of the first and second normal stress differences; polymer solutio…
