Equal surplus sharing values for games with coalition structures

Author

  • Abe, Takaaki

Abstract

We provide axiomatic characterizations of three equal surplus sharing values—the CIS, ENSC, and ED values—within the class of games with coalition structures. Our approach employs the “splitting” axiom, introduced by Casajus (2009). We axiomatically compare these three values with the value concepts proposed by Aumann and Drèze (1974) and Casajus (2009).
