报告摘要

Refining the core and being more easily implemented in a dynamic way, PMAS (Population Monotonic Allocation Scheme) is an important solution concept in the theory of cooperative games. Yet verifying whether a cooperative game is PMAS-admissible is nontrivial. For a large class of cooperative games referred to as superadditive market games (SMG), we propose several new solution concepts that further refine the PMAS.  Each SMG is characterized by a set of players, their initial endowments, and a superadditive function referred to as a cooperative function.  Our solution concepts can be more easily handled by directly studying the underlying cooperative functions (which are continuous instead of discrete).  Each SMG could be viewed as an exchange economy and the set of Walrasian equilibrium price vectors, referred to as the Walrasian core, could be used to refine the core. We define Walrasian PMAS by imposing certain monotonicity requirements on Walrasian core price vectors, as imposed on the core allocations in the definition of PMAS. We call a cooperative function that always derive PMAS-admissible SMGs PMAS kind. We prove that a cooperative function is PMAS kind if and only if its Walrasian PMAS is nonempty,  and that a cooperative game is PMAS-admissible if and only if it can be represented as an SMG with a PMAS kind cooperative function.   Ultramodular functions (functions that are both supermodular and coordinate-wise convex), which are extensively studied in the literature, are always PMAS kind. Several other solution concepts that further refine the Walrasian PMAS are also proposed and characterized. (joint work with Dong Liang and Ning Yu)
