 A classical way of relaxing combinatorial optimization problems is 
 \emph{relaxing by expectation}, using the so-called \emph{multi-linear}
 extension of the objective function $V$ (see, \emph{e.g.}, \cite{calinescu2007maximizing,vondrak2008optimal,dughmi2011convex}).
-This is because this extension can yield approximation guarantees for a wide class of combinatorial problems through \emph{pipage rounding}, a technique proposed by \citeN{pipage}. Crucially for our purposes, such relaxations in general preserve monotonicity which, as discussed, is required in mechanism design.

 Formally, let $P_\mathcal{N}^\lambda$ be a probability distribution over $\mathcal{N}$ parametrized by $\lambda\in [0,1]^n$, where a set $S\subseteq \mathcal{N}$ sampled from  $P_\mathcal{N}^\lambda$ is constructed as follows:  each $i\in \mathcal{N}$ is selected to be in $S$ independently with probability $\lambda_i$, \emph{i.e.},
