On the core of dynamic cooperative games

E Lehrer, M Scarsini - Dynamic Games and Applications, 2013 - Springer
We consider dynamic cooperative games, where the worth of coalitions varies over time
according to the history of allocations. When defining the core of a dynamic game, we allow …

Club networks with multiple memberships and noncooperative stability

FH Page Jr, M Wooders - Games and Economic Behavior, 2010 - Elsevier
Modeling club structures as bipartite directed networks, we formulate the problem of club
formation with multiple memberships as a noncooperative game of network formation and …

A continuous model of strong and weak ties

A Griffith - Journal of Public Economic Theory, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
When individuals interact in a network, links are often asymmetric and of varying intensity. I
study a model whereby networks emerge from agents maximizing utility from continuous …

Club theory and household formation

H Gersbach, H Haller - Journal of Mathematical Economics, 2010 - Elsevier
The relationship between our general equilibrium model with multi-member households and
club models with multiple private goods is investigated. The main distinction in the …

Local public good equilibrium

NW Chan, A van den Nouweland - Available at SSRN 4339511, 2023 - papers.ssrn.com
We extend the ratio equilibrium concept (Kaneko, 1977a, b) to local public good economies
by defining and analyzing Local Public Good Equilibrium (LPGE). Similar to ratio …

Constitutions and groups

A Mauleon, N Roehl, V Vannetelbosch - Games and Economic Behavior, 2018 - Elsevier
We develop a general theoretical framework that allows us to study the group structures that
are going to emerge at equilibrium in overlapping coalition settings. We introduce the notion …

Endogenous formation of security exchanges

M Faias, J Luque - Economic Theory, 2017 - Springer
We use club theory for the first time to provide a model of securities exchange (SX)
formation. We think of a SX as a local public good that allows its traders to diversify risk by …

Anonymous price taking equilibrium in Tiebout economies with a continuum of agents: Existence and characterization

N Allouch, JP Conley, M Wooders - Journal of Mathematical Economics, 2009 - Elsevier
We introduce a model of a local public goods economy with a continuum of agents and
jurisdictions with finite but unbounded populations, where the set of possible projects for …

Voluntary participation and provision of public goods in large finite economies

H Konishi, R Shinohara - Journal of Public Economic Theory, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
We consider a public good provision game with voluntary participation. Agents participating
in the game provide a public good and pay the fees according to a mechanism (allocation …

Small group effectiveness, per capita boundedness and nonemptiness of approximate cores

M Wooders - Journal of Mathematical Economics, 2008 - Elsevier
Small groups of players of a cooperative game with side payments are “effective” if almost all
gains to group formation can be realized by groups of players bounded in absolute size. Per …
