Cooperation with Externalities and Uncertainty
Habis, Helga; Csercsik, Dávid - 2012
We introduce a new class of cooperative games where the worth of a coalition depends on the behavior of other players and on the state of nature as well. We allow for coalitions to form both before and after the resolution of uncertainty, hence agreements must be stable against both types of...

A Minimal Test for Convex Games and the Shapley Value
Voorneveld, Mark; Grahn, Sofia - 2001
A set of necessary and sufficient conditions for convexity of a transferable utility game in terms of its decomposition into unanimity games is shown to be minimal: none of the conditions is redundant. The result is used to provide an axiomatization of the Shapley value on the set of convex games.
