Converse consistent enlargements of the unit-level-core of the multi-choice games

Abstract

We extend the reduced games introduced by Moulin (J Econ Theory 36:120–148, 1985 ) to multi-choice games, and define related properties of consistency and its converse. Since the unit-level-core proposed by Hwang and Liao (J Glob Optim 2009 ) violates (weak) converse consistency, we propose to minimally enlarge the unit-level-core so as to recover (weak) converse consistency.
