Abstract

In this paper we study a class of problems where society wants to elicit the truth from the agents. We focused our attention on a canonical subproblem in which the basic question is tractable. We prove the impossibility to obtain the truth from dominant strategies and that implementation in Nash and Coalition-Proof can be done with simple mechanisms
