Axiomatizing the Harsanyi solution, the symmetric egalitarian solution and the consistent solution for NTU-games

چکیده
The validity of the axiomatization of the Harsanyi solution for NTU-games by Hart (1985) is shown to depend on the regularity conditions imposed on games. Following this observation, we propose two related axiomatic characterizations, one of the symmetric egalitarian solution (Kalai and Samet, 1985) and one of the consistent solution (Maschler and Owen, 1992). The three axiomatic results are studied, evaluated and compared in detail. JEL Classification: C71.

Axiomatic characterization of solutions for cooperative games has a long history, but until recently only solutions for cooperative games with transferable utility and bargaining problems
The egalitarian solutions for general cooperative games which were defined and axiomatized by Kalai and Samet, are compared to the Harsanyi solution. It is shown that axioms used by Hart to characterize the Harsanyi solution can be used to characterize the (symmetric) egalitarian solution. The only changes needed are the omission of the scale covariance axiom and the inclusion, in the domain of...
متن کاملWeighted values and the core in NTU games
The purpose of this paper is to extend the following result by Monderer et al. (1992): the set of weighted Shapley values includes the Core in TU games. We extend the result to the class of uniformly positively smooth NTU games. We focus on two solution concepts which extend the weighted Shapley value. First, we focus on the weighted Egalitarian solution introduced by Kalai and Samet (1985). We...
متن کاملThe Cooperative Solution of Stochastic Games
Building on the work of Nash, Harsanyi, and Shapley, we define a cooperative solution for strategic games that takes account of both the competitive and the cooperative aspects of such games. We prove existence in the general (NTU) case and uniqueness in the TU case. Our main result is an extension of the definition and the existence and uniqueness theorems to stochastic games discounted or und...
متن کاملThe MC-value for monotonic NTU-games
The MC-value is introduced as a new single-valued solution concept for monotonic NTU-games. The MC-value is based on marginal vectors, which aze extensions of the well-known marginal vectors for TU-games and hyperplane games. As a result of the definition it follows that the MC-value coincides with the Shapley value for TU-games and with the consistent Shapley value for hyperplane games. It is ...
متن کاملA bargaining approach to the Owen value and the Nash solution with coalition structure1
The mechanism by Hart and Mas-Colell (1996) for non-transferable utility (NTU) games is generalized so that a coalition structure among players is taken into account. The new mechanism yields the Owen value for transferable utility (TU) games with coalition structure as well as the consistent value (Maschler and Owen 1989, 1992) for NTU games with trivial coalition structure. Furthermore, we ob...
