The solution of an equation f(x)=γ given by an increasing function f on an interval I and right-hand side γ, can be approximated by a sequence calculated according to Newton’s method. In this article, global convergence of the method is considered in the strong sense of convergence for any...

This paper considers the set of Lorenz-maximal imputations in the core of a balanced cooperative game as a solution concept. It is shown that the Lorenz-solution concept satisfies a number of suitable properties such as desirability, continuity and the reduced game property. Moreover, the paper...
