An alternative characterization of the nucleolus in airport problems

چکیده
We consider a class of cost sharing problems with the following features: agents are ordered in terms of their needs for a public facility, and satisfying a given agent implies satisfying all agents with smaller needs than his. We show that the nucleolus is the only rule satisfying equal treatment of equals, last-agent cost additivity, and last-agent consistency. This characterization reveals the interest of focusing on the contribution of a particular agent in characterizing the nucleolus. Journal of Economic Literature Classification Numbers: C71; D30; D63.

A characterization of the nucleolus without homogeneity in airport problems
We consider the problem of sharing the cost of a public facility among agents who have different needs for the facility. We show that the nucleolus is the only rule satisfying equal treatment of equals, last-agent cost additivity, and consistency.
متن کاملAn Algorithm for the Nucleolus of Airport Profit Problems
Airport profit games are a generalization of airport cost games as well as of bankruptcy games. In this paper we present a simple algorithm to compute the nucleolus of airport profit games. In addition we prove that there exists an unique consistent allocation rule in airport profit problems, and it coincides with the nucleolus of the associated TU game. ∗We acknowledge the advice from Peter Su...
