Summary: | The author provides a downloadable program that enables users to interactively generate geometrical depictions of the rules for an unlimited number of three-player games. The program graphically demonstrates how the area of potential cooperation is shrunk to its corresponding core on the basis of the game's characteristic function payoffs; calculates the Shapley value, nucleolus, and per-capita nucleolus surplus-sharing allocations for the game; and graphically depicts the locations of these allocations in the corresponding cores. |
