Abstract

In this chapter we will discuss the multidimensional screening problem, that is the problem that occurs when the private information of the consumer cannot be captured in one characteristic. The general formulation of this problem is provided by Armstrong (1996) and Wilson (1993), and goes as follows. Consider a multiproduct monopoly producing n goods (or a good with n quality dimensions) with a convex cost function.
