How the rules of coalition formation affect stability of international environmental agreements

Finus, Michael; Rundshagen, Bianca - 2003

This paper compares stability of international environmental agreements for six different rules of coalition formation … coalitions. From a policy perspective, counterintuitively, it turns out that stability is higher under exclusive than under open … membership and stability increases with the degree of unanimity. We discuss the policy implications of our result for future …

Bottom-up strategic linking of carbon markets : which climate coalitions would farsighted players form?

Heitzig, Jobst - 2013

We present typical scenarios and general insights from a novel dynamic model of farsighted climate coalition formation involving market linkage and cap coordination, using a simple analytical model of the underlying cost-benefit structure. In our model, the six major emitters of CO2 can link...

Pairing games and markets

Alkan, Ahmet; Tuncay, Alparslan - 2014

Pairing Games or Markets studied here are the non-two-sided NTU generalization of assignment games. We show that the Equilibrium Set is nonempty, that it is the set of stable allocations or the set of semistable allocations, and that it has several notable structural properties. We also...

Bargaining and power

Karos, Dominik - 2013

Given a simple game, a power configuration specifies the power of each player in each winning coalition. We introduce a new power configuration which takes into account bargaining among players in coalitions. We show that under very weak conditions on a bargaining solution there is a power...

On the nonemptiness of approximate cores of large games

Allouch, Nizar; Wooders, Myrna Holtz - 2014

We provide a new proof of the non-emptiness of approximate cores of games with many players of a finite number of types. Earlier papers in the literature proceed by showing that, for games with many players, equal-treatment cores of their "balanced cover games", which are non-empty, can be...

International environmental agreements with asymmetric countries : climate clubs vs. global cooperation

Hagen, Achim; Eisenack, Klaus - 2015

We investigate whether global cooperation for emission abatement can be improved if asymmetric countries can sign different parallel environmental agreements. The analysis assumes a two-stage game theoretical model. Conditions for self-enforcing sets of agreements and the resulting total...

Information design in coalition formation games

Vosooghi, Sareh - 2017

I examine a setting, where an information sender conducts research into a payoff-relevant state variable, and releases information to agents, who consider joining a coalition. The agents' actions can cause harm by contributing to a public bad. The sender, who has commitment power, by designing...

The γ-core and coalition formation

Chander, Parkash - 2003

This paper reinterprets the γ-core (Chander and Tulkens (1995, 1997)) and justifies it as well as its prediction that the efficient coalition structure is stable in terms of the coalition formation theory. It is assumed that coalitions can freely merge or break apart, are farsighted (that is,...

Single-peakedness and disconnected coalitions

Brams, Steven J.; Jones, Michael A.; Kilgour, D. Marc - 2002

Ordinally single-peaked preferences are distinguished from cardinally single-peaked preferences, in which all players have a similar perception of distances in some one-dimensional ordering. While ordinal single-peakedness can lead to disconnected coalitions that have a "hole" in the ordering,...
