Heterogeneous cost sharing, the directional serial rule

Mathematical Methods of Operations Research, 2006, vol. 64, issue 3, 429-444

Abstract: The directional serial rule is introduced as a natural serial extension, generalizing the Moulin–Shenker cost sharing rule to heterogeneous cost sharing models. It is the unique regular rule compatible with the radial serial principle. In particular, this shows the incompatibility of the serial principle with differentiability of a cost sharing rule as a function of the individual demands. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2006
