The sequential equal surplus division for sharing a river
Béal, Sylvain; Rémila, Eric; Solal, Philippe - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2012
We introduce the sequential equal surplus division for sharing the total welfare resulting form the cooperation of agents along a river with a delta. This allocation rule can be seen as a generalization of the contribution vectors introduced by Ju, Borm and Ruys (2007) in the context of...

Decentralized Task Coordination
Gudmundsson, Jens; Hougaard, Jens Leth; Platz, Trine Tornøe - 2020
We study decentralized task coordination. Tasks are of varying complexity and agents asymmetric: agents capable of completing high-level tasks may also take on tasks originally contracted by lower-level agents, facilitating system-wide cost reductions. We suggest a family of decentralized...

House Allocation via Deferred-Acceptance
Ehlers, Lars; Klaus, Bettina - Centre Interuniversitaire de Recherche en Économie … - 2013
We study the simple model of assigning indivisible and heterogenous objects (e.g., houses, jobs, offices, etc.) to agents. Each agent receives at most one object and monetary compensations are not possible. For this model, known as the house allocation model, we characterize the class of rules...

Strategy-Proofness makes the Difference: Deferred-Acceptance with Responsive Priorities
EHLERS, Lars; KLAUS, Bettina - Département de Sciences Économiques, Université de … - 2012
In college admissions and student placements at public schools, the admission decision can be thought of as assigning indivisible objects with capacity constraints to a set of students such that each student receives at most one object and monetary compensations are not allowed. In these...

The Two-Agent Claims-Truncated Proportional Rule Has No Consistent Extension: A Constructive Proof
Thomson, William - University of Rochester - Center for Economic Research … - 2006
We consider the problem of adjudicating conflicting claims. A rule to solve such problems is consistent if the choice it makes for each problem is always in agreement with the choice it makes for each "reduced problem" obtained by imagining that some claimants leave with their awards and...

On the leximin and utilitarian overtaking criteria with extended anonymity
Kamaga, Kohei; Kojima, Takashi - Center for Intergenerational Studies, Institute of … - 2008
This paper studies the extensions of the infinte-horizon variants of the leximin principle and utilitarianism on the set of infinite utility streams. We especially examine those extensions which satisfy the axiom of Preference-continuity (or Consistency) and the extended anonymity axiom called...
