GTO2-2-04: Impossibility of General, Dominant-Strategy Implementation

[@Dr.Blockchain]

interesting! So is G-S theorem the opposite of the revelation principle?

[@sharathkumar8422]

No, the revelation principle is about how an indirect mechanism that implements a social choice function in dominant strategies also does so in a direct mechanism. Direct mechanisms are much easier to work with and this principle can be used to study many indirect mechanisms without all the complexity of such mechanisms involved.
