An application of the representations of symmetric groups to characterizing solutions of games in partition function form
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2014, Vol 24, Issue 2
Abstract
A different perspective from the more “traditional” approaches to studying solutions of games in partition function form has been presented. We provide a decomposition of the space of such games under the action of the symmetric group, for the cases with three and four players. In particular, we identify all the irreducible subspaces that are relevant to the study of linear symmetric solutions. We then use such a decomposition to derive a characterization of the class of linear and symmetric solutions, as well as of the class of linear, symmetric and efficient solutions.

The impact of weights on the quality of agricultural producers' multicriteria decision models
Decisions regarding agricultural production involve multiple goals. A multicriteria approach al-lows decision makers to consider more aspects of the decision scenario, although it also leads to other problems, such as di...

Continuous improvement is the core of any successful firm. Talking about manufacturing industries, there is huge potential for continuous improvement to be made in various work areas. Such improvement can be made in any...
Implications of market frictions: serial correlations in indexes on the emerging stock markets in Central and Eastern Europe
Implications of market frictions in the context of serial correlations in indexes on the Central and Eastern European (CEE) stock markets have been analysed. Market frictions, such as non-trading effects, bid/ask spreads...
Construction of a flexible simulation model of a corporation
The instability of the real structure of a firm is one of the fundamental problems in simulating microeconomic systems. This paper proposes a method, called ACV (abstraction – gradual concretization – verification) for c...
