Partially cooperative games

Abstract

In this paper, we present a general model in which mutually dependent negotiations are simultaneously conducted and define a solution concept for the model. We provide a sufficient condition for the solution to exist and show that the solutions approximately coincide with the equilibrium outcomes of extensive form games. We present a solution to the merger paradox as an application.
