Suppose that a group of agents have demands for some good. Each one of them owns a technology allowing to produce the good, with these technologies varying in their effectiveness. We consider technologies exhibiting either increasing return to scale (IRS) or decreasing returns to scale (DRS). In each case, we solve the issue of the effi cient allocation of the production between the agents. In ...

In this paper we study competitive outcomes and endogenous coalition formation in a cooperative n-person transferable utility (TU) game from the viewpoint of general equilibrium theory. For any given game, we construct a competitive exchange coalition production economy corresponding to the game. First, it is shown that the full core of a TU game is not empty if and only if the completion of th...

In this paper, we use a partition function form game to analyze cartel formation among firms in Cournot competition. We assume that firm obtains certain cost advantage allows it produce goods at lower unit cost. show if the level of is “moderate”, then with leads firms. Moreover, relatively high, formed can also be stable sense core game. technology for low-cost production copied, may prevent f...
