Abstract: This paper deals with bankruptcy problems in which the players have different utility functions defined in terms of the quantity of allocated resources. We tackle this kind of situation by means of a game without transferable utility and provide two characterizations of the CEA-rule in this context. Copyright Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013
