The paper deals with the subclass of k-convex n-person transferable utility games which have clear affinities to the well-known convex TU-games. Five new characterizations of a k-convex n-person TU-game are presented in terms of: (1) the unanimity coordinates of TU-game with respect to the...

The paper provides two characterizations of probabilistic values satisfying three classical axioms (linearity, dummy player and any of three "symmetry" axioms) together with a new probabilistic-efficiency axiom. This new axiom requires that players of a game allocate the total amount of their...

In the framework of (set-valued or single-valued) solutions for coalitional games with transferable utility, the three notions of consistency, bilateral consistency, and converse consistency are frequently used to provide axiomatic characterizations of a particular solution (like the core,...
