An algorithm for the proportional division of indivisible items
Brams, Steven J.; Kilgour, D. Marc; Klamler, Christian - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2014
An allocation of indivisible items among n ≥ 2 players is proportional if and only if each player receives a proportional subset—one that it thinks is worth at least 1/n of the total value of all the items. We show that a proportional allocation exists if and only if there is an allocation...

One Share-One Vote: New Empirical Evidence
Eklund, Johan; Poulsen, Thomas - Centre of Excellence for Science and Innovation … - 2010
Shares with more voting rights than cash flow rights provide their owners with a disproportional influence that is often found to destroy the value of outside equity. This is taken as evidence of discretionary use of power. However, concentration of power does not necessarily result from control...
