\noindent\emph{Monotone Approximations in Combinatorial Auctions.}
Relaxations of combinatorial problems are prevalent
in \emph{combinatorial auctions},

+in which an auctioneer aims at maximizing the social welfare. As noted by \citeN{archer-approximate},
approximations to this maximization must preserve incentive compatibility. Most approximation
algorithms do not preserve this property, hence specific relaxations, and corresponding roundings to an integral solution, must be
constructed \cite{archer-approximate,lavi-truthful,dughmi-truthful,briest-approximation}. Because of the specificity of our relaxation, and because we seek a determinist mechanism and $\delta$-truthfulness, not truthfulness-in-expectation, none of the techniques present in these works apply to our setting.
