Reject and renegotiate: the Shapley value in multilateral bargaining
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper investigates three distinctive and intuitive renegotiation bargaining protocols that all yield the Shapley value as the unique subgame perfect equilibrium outcome. These protocols, built on the multi-bidding procedure of Pérez-Castrillo and Wettstein (2001), allow more freedom in multilateral bargaining where rejected players can further negotiate and form coalitions. The self-duality of the Shapley value plays a key role in the second and third results. Moreover, these renegotiation protocols allow an actual play along the equilibrium path to restore the Shapley value in case of a ‘mistake’ made before.

Rational bargaining in games with coalitional externalities
This paper provides a flexible strategic framework to analyze bargaining and values in environments with coalitional externalities. Within this framework we propose a new value that extends the Shapley value to partition function form games, the so-called Rational Belief Shapley (RBS) value. We investigate the strategic foundation of the RBS value by constructing an implementation mechanism. Th...
متن کاملBargaining, Values and Implementation with Coalitional Externalities
The paper starts by proposing an explicit and intuitive bargaining process to analyze coalitional externalities, which we then use to generate a value allocation extending the Shapley value to partition function from games, the Rational Belief Shapley value (RBS). We investigate the strategic foundation of the value by constructing a mechanism implementing it. It extends existing models of mult...
متن کاملAlternative Axiomatic Characterizations of the Grey Shapley Value
The Shapley value, one of the most common solution concepts of cooperative game theory is defined and axiomatically characterized in different game-theoretic models. Certainly, the Shapley value can be used in interesting sharing cost/reward problems in the Operations Research area such as connection, routing, scheduling, production and inventory situations. In this paper, we focus on the Shapl...
متن کاملAsymptotic Properties of the Shapley Value of Patent Licensing Games
We study the asymptotic properties of the Shapley value of patent licensing games with the Cournot competition, shedding light on its relations to the nucleolus, core and bargaining set. The Shapley value of the outside patentee of a non-drastic cost-reducing innovation converges to 2(a − c), which coincides with the patentee’s profit through non-cooperative licensing by means of upfront fee (o...
متن کاملCooperative network design: A Nash bargaining solution approach
The Network Design problem has received increasing attention in recent years. Previous works have addressed this problem considering almost exclusively networks designed by selfish users, which can be consistently suboptimal. This paper addresses the network design issue using cooperative game theory, which permits to study ways to enforce and sustain cooperation among users. Both the Nash barg...
