Abstract

We discuss several sets of cooperative games in which the Shapley value assigns zero payo s to all players. Each set spans the kernel of the Shapley value and leads to a different characterization of games with identical Shapley values. The special games we identify deliver intuitive axiomatizations of the Shapley value. We explain how each basis of the kernel of the Shapley value can be augmented to construct a basis of the space of all games.
