Abstract

In real situations, agents might take different energy levels to participate. On the other hand, agents always face an increasing need to focus on non-transferable-utility situations efficiently in their operational processes. Thus, we introduce the replicated core under non-transferable-utility situations, and analyze non-emptiness of the replicated core by means of a balanced result. In order to express the rationality of the replicated core, we also define different reduced games to axiomatize the replicated core.
