arXiv:2606. 10472v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dynamic multi-resource allocation is a central problem in shared computing environments, where users' demands arrive sequentially and resources must be distributed fairly without knowledge of future demands.

The paper investigates the compatibility of envy-freeness and equitability in fair division, focusing on both indivisible goods and chores. It shows that the relaxed notions EF1+EQ1 may not exist even for normalized additive valuations, but provides an algorithm that finds an EF1+EQ1 allocation for up to seven agents with binary goods. For chores, the authors prove that a stronger EFX+EQX guarantee always exists, regardless of normalization, and they also explore cross-notion ex‑ante and ex‑post fairness guarantees.
