DEA production games and Owen allocations. (English) Zbl 1347.91022
Summary: DEA production games have recently been introduced in a paper by S. Lozano [Eur. J. Oper. Res. 231, No. 2, 405–413 (2013; Zbl 1317.90106)]. In the present paper we further investigate these cooperative games. We establish the links between the class of DEA production games and the classes of linear programming games and linear production games. We also analyse the Owen set of DEA production games and discuss the interpretation of these allocations for different levels of cooperation between agents.
