If we denote by $m$ the number of items, we look at a specific case where the type $t$ of an agent is a vector $t=(t_1,\ldots,t_m)$ drawn from a distribution $F$ over $\mathbb{R}_+^m$ and for an allocation $x$ and price $p$, the utility of the agent is: \begin{displaymath} u(t, x, p) = \sum_{S\subseteq 2^m} x(S)g\left(1+\sum_{j\in S} t_j\right)-p \end{displaymath} where $g$ is a concave function from $\mathbb{R}_+$ to $\mathbb{R}_+$ with $g(0) = 0$. \section{Related Work} \cite{babaioff} \cite{yao} \cite{hart} \bibliographystyle{abbrv} \bibliography{main} \end{document}
