A Model of Delegated Project Choice
研究委托人如何通过设定可选项目集合来引导代理人选择符合自己偏好的项目，并分析了代理人努力发现项目、委托人支付报酬等复杂情形。
We present a model in which a principal delegates the choice of project to an agent with different preferences. The principal determines the set of projects from which the agent may choose. The principal can verify the characteristics of the project chosen by the agent, but does not know which other projects were available to the agent. We consider situations where the collection of available projects is exogenous to the agent but uncertain, where the agent must invest effort to discover a project, where the principal can pay the agent to choose a desirable project, and where the principal can adopt more complex schemes than simple permission sets.
