A mechanism is a function that asks each player to reveal their edge and then chooses a (random) assignment of the vertices. The player may or may not reveal their edge truthfully. The utility of each player is the expected probability that their edge is satisfied by this assignment. A mechanism is said to be strategy-proof if the optimal strategy for every player is to be truthful.</span></span></span> for <span class="ltx_text ltx_markedasmath ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p1.2.5">Max-DiCut</span>. <span class="ltx_ERROR undefined" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p1.2.6">\textcite</span>BFS19 showed applications of oblivious algorithms to the online submodular optimization problem.</p> </div> <div class="ltx_para" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2"> <span class="ltx_ERROR undefined" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.10">\textcite</span> <p class="ltx_p" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.9">Sin23-kand recently extended the definition of oblivious algorithms to a more general version of <span class="ltx_text ltx_markedasmath ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.9.1">Max-DiCut</span> called <math alttext="\textsc{Max-}k\textsc{And}" class="ltx_Math" display="inline" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1"><semantics id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1a"><mrow id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.cmml"><mtext class="ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2a.cmml">Max-</mtext><mo id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1.cmml"></mo><mi id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.3" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.3.cmml">k</mi><mo id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1a" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1.cmml"></mo><mtext class="ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4a.cmml">And</mtext></mrow><annotation-xml encoding="MathML-Content" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1b"><apply id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1"><times id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.1"></times><ci id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2a.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2"><mtext class="ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.2">Max-</mtext></ci><ci id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.3.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.3">𝑘</ci><ci id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4a.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4"><mtext class="ltx_font_smallcaps" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1.1.4">And</mtext></ci></apply></annotation-xml><annotation encoding="application/x-tex" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1c">\textsc{Max-}k\textsc{And}</annotation><annotation encoding="application/x-llamapun" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.2.m2.1d">Max- italic_k And</annotation></semantics></math>, where each constraint applies to <math alttext="k" class="ltx_Math" display="inline" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1"><semantics id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1a"><mi id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1.1" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1.1.cmml">k</mi><annotation-xml encoding="MathML-Content" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1b"><ci id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1.1.cmml" xref="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1.1">𝑘</ci></annotation-xml><annotation encoding="application/x-tex" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1c">k</annotation><annotation encoding="application/x-llamapun" id="S1.SS3.SSS0.Px2.p2.3.m3.1d">italic_k</annotation></semantics></math> variables and specifies a single required bit for each variable.
