An algorithm for the proportional division of indivisible items
Brams, Steven J.; Kilgour, D. Marc; Klamler, Christian - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2014
An allocation of indivisible items among n ≥ 2 players is proportional if and only if each player receives a proportional subset—one that it thinks is worth at least 1/n of the total value of all the items. We show that a proportional allocation exists if and only if there is an allocation...

Matching Markets with N-Dimensional Preferences
Flanders, Sam - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2014
Abstract. This paper analyzes matching markets where agent types are n-vectors of characteristics--i.e. points in R …).
