Multi-commodity rationing problems with maxmin payoffs

Abstract

We address a multi-dimensional extension of standard rationing problems in which several commodities have to be shared among a set of agents who exhibit maxmin preferences on the results they obtain. In this context we investigate efficiency and introduce a property of stability which is supported on a transferable utility game. We also propose a procedure to construct rules for obtaining stable allocations for the special case where all commodities have the same weight. Copyright Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014
