Title: Interactive Geometry for Surplus Sharing in Cooperative Learning
URL: http://www.econ.usu.edu/acaplan/tugames_main.html
Abstract: A downloadable program is provided that enables users to interactively generate geometrical depictions of the rules for an unlimited number of three-player games. In particular, the program (1) graphically demonstrates how the area of potential cooperation is shrunk to its corresponding core based on the game's characteristic function payoffs, (2) calculates the Shapley value, nucleolus, and per-capita nucleolus surplus-sharing allocations for the game, and (3) graphically depicts the locations of these allocations in the corresponding cores.
