We consider the problem of ranking sets of objects, the members of which are mutually compatible. Assuming that each object is either good or bad, we axiomatically characterize a cardinality-based rule which arises naturally in this dichotomous setting.

A symmetric network consists of a set of positions and a set of bilateral links between these positions. Examples of such networks are exchange networks, communication networks, disease transmission networks, control networks etc. For every symmetric network we define a cooperative transferable...

In this paper, we introduce a new family of compromise solutions for the class of compromise admissible games. These solutions extend bankruptcy rules. In particular, we show that the compromise extension of the run-to-the-bank rule coincides with the barycentre of the core cover and...

In this paper, we propose a new extension of the run-to-the-bank rule for bankruptcy situations to the class of multi-issue allocation situations. We show that this rule always yields a core element and that it satisfies self-duality. We characterize our rule by means of a new consistency...

This paper deals with bankruptcy situations in which, in addition to the claims, an exogenously given reference point for the allocation of the estate is present. We introduce and analyse two types of compromise solutions and show that they coincide with the T value of two corresponding TU...
