We establish a discrete multivariate mean value theorem for the class of positive maximum component sign preserving functions. A constructive and combinatorial proof is given based upon a simplicial algorithm and vector labeling. Moreover, we apply this theorem to a discrete nonlinear...

We study the existence problem of a zero point of a function defined on a finite set of elements of the integer lattice of the n-dimensional Euclidean space . It is assumed that the set is integrally convex, which implies that the convex hull of the set can be subdivided in simplices such that...

On the class of cycle-free directed graph games with transferable utility solution concepts, called web values, are introduced axiomatically, each one with respect to a chosen coalition of players that is assumed to be an anti-chain in the directed graph and is considered as a management team....
