Abstract: 

 In 2020, Chaudhury, Garg, and Mehlhorn demonstrated the existence of EFX allocation for three agents with additive valuations, though their proof is complex and lengthy. Subsequently, Akrami et al. developed a simpler proof of this result. In the seminar talk, we will review their proof. As of now, the existence of EFX for more than three agents remains unknown.
