Abstract:

We study the convergence of two price processes generated by two dynamic double auctions (DA) and provide conditions under which the two price processes converge to a Walrasian equilibrium in the underlying economy. When the conditions are not satisfied, the price processes may result in a bubble or crash.

Keywords: Double auction mechanisms, incremental subgradient methods, network resource allocations.
