LLM-Auction: Generative Auction towards LLM-Native Advertising

The paper introduces LLM‑Auction, a learning‑based generative auction mechanism that integrates ad allocation with large language model (LLM) generation. It redefines the auction object from discrete ad slots to distributions over LLM outputs, aligning allocation with advertiser value and user experience while inherently modeling allocation externalities without extra inference cost. The authors prove allocation monotonicity and continuity, show a first‑price payment rule has favorable incentive properties, and demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art allocation efficiency in a simulated LLM‑as‑a‑judge environment.
