\paragraph{Beyond Submodular Objectives}
Beyond submodular objectives, it is known that no truthful mechanism with approximation ratio smaller than $n^{1/2-\epsilon}$ exists for maximizing fractionally subadditive functions (a class that includes submodular functions) assuming access to a value query oracle~\cite{singer-mechanisms}. Assuming access to a stronger oracle (the \emph{demand} oracle), there exists
a truthful, $O(\log^3 n)$-approximate mechanism
-\cite{dobz2011-mechanisms} as well as a universally truthful, $O(\frac{\log n}{\log \log n})$-approximate mechanism for subadditive maximization
+\cite{dobz2011-mechanisms} as well as a universally truthful, $O(\frac{\log n}{\log \log n})$-appro\-xi\-mate mechanism for subadditive maximization
\cite{bei2012budget}. Moreover, in a Bayesian setup, assuming a prior distribution among the agent's costs, there exists a truthful mechanism with a 768/512-approximation ratio \cite{bei2012budget}. %(in terms of expectations)
Posted price, rather than direct revelation mechanisms, are also studied in \cite{singerposted}.
