Hamiache (2001) assigns to every TU game a so-called associated game and then shows that the Shapley value is characterized as the unique solution for TU games satisfying the inessential game property, continuity and associated consistency. The latter notion means that for every game the Shapley...

In this paper, we introduce a new class of values for cooperative games, named procedural surplus values, which is determined by procedures of sharing marginal surplus. Considering that the level of solidarity among players in a coalition may be related to the size of the coalition, this class...

Given any α ∈ [0, 1], an α-constant-sum game on a finite set of players, N, is a function that assigns a real number to any coalition S ⊆ N, such that the sum of the worth of the coalition S and the worth of its complementary coalition N\S is α times of the worth of the grand coalition....
