Stable partitions for proportional generalized claims problems
研究一组代理人对不足总 endowment 的索赔问题,分析在最小联盟规模要求下,使用特定分配规则(如 CEA 或 CEL)时稳定划分的结构,并给出构造算法。
We consider a set of agents who have claims on an endowment that is not large enough to cover all claims. Agents can form coalitions but a minimal coalition size θ is required to have positive coalitional funding that is proportional to the sum of the claims of its members. We analyze the structure of stable partitions when coalition members use well-behaved rules to allocate coalitional endowments, e.g., the well-known constrained equal awards rule (CEA) or the constrained equal losses rule (CEL). For continuous, (strictly) resource monotonic, and consistent rules, stable partitions with (mostly) θ-size coalitions emerge. For CEA and CEL we provide algorithms to construct such a stable partition formed by (mostly) θ-size coalitions.
