Cost Monotonicity, Consistency and Minimum Cost Spanning Tree Games

Abstract: We propose a new cost allocation rule for minimum cost spanning tree games. The new rule is a core selection and also satis…es cost monotonicity. We also give characterization theorems for the new rule as well as the much-studied Bird allocation. We show that the principal di¤erence between these two rules is in,terms of their consistency properties
