Abstract: Abstract This chapter shall provide the theoretical basis coming from cooperative game theory. We start with a survey of historical developments in the field of game theory.

As the fundamental contribution of cooperative game theory are methods to allocate cooperative profits or costs, we present the most prominent allocation methods. Thereby, we concentrate on the core and its variants as this method will be applied in the following chapters.
