Complete null agent for games with externalities

作者：

Highlights：

• Multi-agent interactive situations can be modeled by means of partition function form games.

• The contribution of a player is redefined taking into account the externalities that he creates on other sets of players.

• A new concept of null player for games with externalities is defined.

• A family of values is introduced and characterized.
