Coalitional substitution of players and the proportional Shapley value

Abstract

We present a new axiomatization of the proportional Shapley Value. Our study is based on three axioms: efficiency, which ensures that the total worth of the grand coalition is fully distributed among the players; the disjointly productive players property, which states that removing a player who has no cooperative interactions with another player does not affect that player's payoff; and a new axiom that makes the difference to the classical Shapley value. This axiom, the coalitional substitution of players property, involves a scenario in which a player's cooperative contribution to a coalition is replaced by that of a group of new players whose combined individual worths match that of the original player. The key point is that the payoffs to the remaining players remain unaffected.
