We introduce the concept of a transferable utility game with uncertainty (TUU-game). In a TUU-game there is uncertainty regarding the payoffs of coalitions. One out of a finite number of states of nature may materialize and conditional on the state, the players are involved in a particular...

We study the implications of procedural fairness on income taxation. We formulateprocedural fairness as a particular non-cooperative bargaining game and examine thestationary subgame perfect equilibria of the game. The equilibrium outcome is called tax equilibrium and is shown to be unique. The...

We show that in the canonical non-cooperative multilateral bargaining game, a subgameperfect equilibrium exists in pure stationary strategies, even when the space of feasible payoffs is not convex. At such an equilibrium there is no delay. We also have the converse result that randomization will...

We analyze strategic firm behavior in settings where the production stage is followed by several periods during which only sales take place. We analyze the dynamics of the market structure, the development of prices and sales over time, and the implications for profits and consumer surplus. Two...

We examine the notion of the core when cooperation takes place in a setting with time and uncertainty. We do so in a two-period general equilibrium setting with incomplete markets. Market incompleteness implies that players cannot make all possible binding commitments regarding their actions at...

This paper addresses a problem with an argument in Kranich, Perea, and Peters (2005) supporting their definition of the Weak Sequential Core and their characterization result. We also provide the remedy, a modification of the definition, to rescue the characterization.

We study the implications of procedural fairness on income taxation. All taxation schemes areallowed for, up to the constraints implied by incentive compatibility and budget balance. Weformulate procedural fairness as a particular non-cooperative bargaining game and examine thestationary subgame...

We study bankruptcy games where the estate and the claims have stochastic values. We use the WeakSequential Core as the solution concept for such games. We test the stability of a number of wellknown division rules in this stochastic setting and find that most of them are unstable, exceptfor the...

A set of coalition structures P is farsightedly stable (i) if all possible deviations from any coalition structure p belonging to P to a coalition structure outside P are deterred by the threat of ending worse off or equally well off, (ii) if there exists a farsighted improving path from any...

We present a general equilibrium model of the new neoclassical synthesis that has the same levelof generality as the Arrow-Debreu model. This involves a stochastic multi-period economy with amonetary sector and sticky commodity prices. We formulate the notion of a sticky price equilibriumwhere...
