This paper contributes to the program of numerical characterization and classification of simple games outlined in the classic monograph of von Neumann and Morgenstern. We suggest three possible ways to classify simple games beyond the classes of weighted and roughly weighted games. To this end...

We generalize two well-known game-theoretic models by introducing multiple partners matching games, defined by a graph G = (N;E), with an integer vertex capacity function b and an edge weighting w. The set N consists of a number of players that are to form a set M is a subset of E of 2-player...

Many economic organizations have some relational structure, meaning that economic agents do not only differ with respect to certain individual characteristics such as wealth and preferences, but also belong to some relational structure in which they usually take different positions. Two examples...
