MO | R Documentation |
This function returns the awards vector assigned by the minimal overlap rule rule (MO) to a claims problem.
MO(E, d, name = FALSE)
E |
The endowment. |
d |
The vector of claims. |
name |
A logical value. |
Let E≥ 0 be the endowment to be divided and d the vector of claims with d≥ 0 and such that the sum of claims exceeds the endowment.
The truncated claim of a claimant i is the minimum of the claim and the endowment:
ti=min{di,E}, i=1,…,n
Suppose that each agent claims specific parts of E equal to her/his claim. After arranging which parts agents claim so as to “minimize conflict”, equal division prevails among all agents claiming a specific part and each agent receives the sum of the compensations she/he gets from the various parts that he claimed.
Let d0=0. The minimal overlap rule is defined, for each problem (E,d) and each claimant i, as:
If E≤ d_n then
MOi(E,d) = t1/n + (t2-t1)/(n-1) + … + (ti-t(i-1))/(n-i+1).
If E>d_n let dk<s ≤ d(k+1), with 0≤ k ≤ n-2, be the unique solution to the equation max{d1-s,0}+…+max{dn-s,0}=E-s. Then:
MOi(E,d) = d1/n + (d2-d1)/(n-1) + … + (di-d(i-1))/(n-i+1), if i≤ k
MOi(E,d) = MOi(s,d)+di-s, if i>k+1.
The awards vector selected by the MO rule. If name = TRUE, the name of the function (MO) as a character string.
