stable solutions of a multiple partners matching game in two different ways and perform a study on the core of the … the existence of a stable solution and the non-emptiness of the core, which holds in the other models with payments, is no …

-firm-buyer games have non-empty core. We show that for these games the core coincides with the classical bargaining set (Davis and …

the unique welfare distribution that is core-stable and satisfies the condition that no agent gets a utility payoff above … has an increasing benefit function (no externalities) then every weighted hierarchical solution is core-stable. In case of …

The k-core cover of a TU-game consists of all … minimal rights game. It is shown that the core of a TU-game with player set N coincides with the L|N |/2-̦core cover …

coalition forms without delay in equilibrium, expected payoffs must be in the core of the characteristic function game that …

In this paper, we study different notions of stability for three-sided assignment games. Since the core may be empty in …-Morgenstern stable sets. The dominant diagonal property is necessary for the core to be a stable set, and also sufficient in the case … of the extended cores of all μ-compatible subgames, for a given optimal matching μ, is the core with respect to those …

We study linearly weighted versions of the least core and the (pre)nucleolus and investigatethe reduction possibilities … dual game. Our main results imply, for example, that if the core of the game is not empty, all dually inessential … core and the per-capita (pre)nucleolus from the dual game. This could lead to the design of polynomial time algorithms for …

We are concerned with the problem of core membership testing for hedonic coalition formation games, which is to decide … whether a certain coalition structure belongs to the core of a given game. We show that this problem is co-NP complete when … players' preferences are additive. -- Additivity ; Coalition formation ; Core ; Co-NP completeness ; Hedonic games …
