Balanced EF1 and fPO Allocations

The paper records how the collaboration actually went: the authors first aimed at a counterexample showing EF1 and PO incompatible under matroid constraints, and when the model surfaced fundamental difficulties with that plan they redirected toward proving the positive result instead. The paper also extends the technique to category constraints and leaves a pseudopolynomial-time algorithm open.
