EconCS Bench

A benchmark suite of open research challenges in Economics and Computation (EconCS), associated with the AI-Driven Research in EconCS workshop at EC 2026. 24 open problems — mechanism design, fair division (EFX, MMS, PMMS), prophet inequalities, information design, complexity of equilibria — each a markdown PROBLEM.md with YAML metadata, contributor attribution, known results, and an optional difficulty rating (Approachable / Challenging / Hard). Sits in the RISE evaluation-infrastructure layer alongside AstaBench, Aviary, and MLGym, but targets formal *theory* research rather than empirical, coding, or literature tasks.

What it does

The first community-curated open-problem benchmark aimed at AI-driven theory research: problems are contributed via pull requests by many of the field's leading researchers (Nisan, Papadimitriou, Procaccia, Conitzer, Feldman, Mirrokni, Weinberg, Dobzinski, Chen, Babaioff, Rubinstein, Duetting, Lucier, Branzei, Paes Leme), making it both a live registry of what experts consider genuinely open and a difficulty-graded target set for proof-capable research agents. Success has no harness: a solved benchmark problem is a publishable research result.

Bring it into the standard

A pipeline built outside E2ER can meet the standard by describing its steps as a template, attaching the floor of checks and publishing evaluation records. Its authors keep ownership and credit.
