cooperative behavior after a competition is tied to the potential for obtaining ‘fair’ payoff outcomes within the contest. Our … structuring incentives in the workplace when a combination of competition and cooperation is necessary among workers …

The paper defines a family of nested non-cooperative simultaneous finite games to study coalition structure formation … with intra and inter-coalition externalities. The novelties of the paper are: a definition of every games embeds a … coalition structure formation mechanism. Every game has two outcomes - an allocation of players over coalitions and a payoff …

This paper studies an extensive form game of coalition formation with random proposers in games with externalities. It … strong condition, the equilibrium coalition structure is not necessarily efficient. There may be multiple equilibria even in … coalition forms without delay in equilibrium, expected payoffs must be in the core of the characteristic function game that …

suggested finite game includes a family of nested simultaneous non-cooperative finite games with intra- and inter-coalition … externalities. In this family, games differ by the size of maximum coalition, partitions and by coalition structure formation rules … game in the family has an equilibrium in mixed strategies with possibly more than one coalition. The results of the game …

We study coalition formation problems with general externalities. We prove that if expectations are not prudent a … stable coalitions structure can fail to exist. Under prudent expectations a stable coalition structure exists if the set of … admissible coalitions is single-lapping. This assumption also guarantees the existence of a stable and efficient coalition …
