An Improved Upper Bound for the Random-Offerer Mechanism in Bilateral Trade via Recursive Hard Instances
We study the worst-case efficiency of the random-offerer mechanism in bilateral trade relative to the first-best gains from trade. We construct a family of independent buyer value and seller cost distributions whose ratio converges to $0.436943488\ldots$, improving the previous upper bound of $0.460
