We model cooperative games when externality affects the payoffs of coalitions. The coalitional games among countries committing to pollution reduction can be easily embedded into such a framework. We evaluate the individual welfare for countries joining the International Environmental Agreements...

In this note we present as well necessary as sufficient conditions for existence of a Pareto optimum for general non-convex differential games. The obtained results are used to analyze the non-convex regular indefinite linear quadratic differential game. For the scalar case an algorithm is...

We survey some recent research results in the field of dynamic cooperative differential games with non-transferable utilities. Problems which fit into this framework occur for instance if a person has more than one objective he likes to optimize or if several persons decide to combine efforts in...

In this article we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Pareto optimal solutions for an N player cooperative infinite horizon differential game. Firstly, we write the problem of finding Pareto candidates as solving N constrained optimal control subproblems. We derive...

This paper introduces a framework for joint hub network development. Building a joint physical hub for transhipment of goods is expensive and therefore involves considerable risks for the cooperating companies. In a practical setting, it is unlikely that an entire network will be built at once....

The core of games arising from semi-infinite transportation situations with infinitely divisible goods is studied. In these situations one aims at maximizing the profit from transporting a good from a finite number of suppliers to an infinite number of demanders. This good is infinitely...

We study linear production situations with an infinite number of production techniques. Such a situation gives rise to a semi-infinite linear program. Related to this program, we introduce primal and dual games and study relations between these games, the cores of these games and the so-called...

In this paper we propose a new rule to allocate risk capital to portfolios or divisions within a firm. Specifically, we determine the capital allocation that minimizes the excesses of sets of portfolios in lexicographical sense. The excess of a set of portfolios is defined as the expected loss...

In this paper we investigate some new applications of Scarf's Lemma. First, we introduce the notion of fractional core for NTU-games, which is always nonempty by the Lemma. Stable allocation is a general solution concept for games where both the players and their possible cooperations can have...
