Analytical solution of $k$th price auction
Authors: Martin Mihelich, Yan Shu
Abstract: We provide an exact analytical solution of the Nash equilibrium for the $k$th price auction by using inverse of distribution functions. As applications, we identify the unique symmetric equilibrium where the valuations have polynomial distribution, fat tail distribution and exponential distributions.
