Abstract

We investigate the prenucleolus, the anti-prenucleolus and the
SM-nucleolus in glove market games and weighted majority games. This
kind of games looks desirable for considering solution concepts taking into
account the blocking power of a coalition S with different weights. Analytical
formulae for calculating the solutions are presented for glove market
game. Influence of the blocking power on players’ payoffs is discussed and
the examples which demonstrate similarities and differences comparing with
other solution concepts are given.

Keywords:

cooperative TU-game, solution concept, prenucleolus, SM-nucleolus, constructive and blocking power, glove market game, weighted majority game
