Abstract

Within the class of zero-monotonic and grand coalition superadditive cooperative games with transferable utility, the convexity of a game is characterized by the coincidence of its core and the steady bargaining set. As a consequence it is proved that convexity can also be characterized by the coincidence of the core of a game and the modified Zhou bargaining set à la Shimomura.
