Abstract:
Coalitional games are mathematical models suited to study payoff distribution problems in cooperative scenarios. This naive representation quickly becomes infeasible over games involving many agents, thereby calling for suitable compact representations, that is, encoding mechanisms that take an amount of space that grows polynomially with the number of agents. The paper addresses this issue by proposing a compact encoding for representing and reasoning about the outcomes of NTU coalitional games founding on answer set programming. Computational issues arising in the setting have been studied too, by addressing questions related to certain payoff distributions enjoying desirable stability properties.
