Abstract

Xu et al. (Linear Algebra Appl 430(11):2896–2897, 2009) introduced the notion of associated consistency according to the idea of “individual self-evaluation". In this paper, we introduce a new type of associated consistency according to the idea of “union self-evaluation" instead of “individual self-evaluation". Adopting this type of associated consistency, we provide new axiomatizations of the equal allocation of non-separable contributions (EANSC) value and the center-of-gravity of the imputation set (CIS) value. Moreover, a dynamic process is given based on the type of associated games, which leads to the CIS value and EANSC value, starting from an arbitrary efficient payoff vector.
