Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to introduce two new values for transferable utility (TU) games: the upper and lower optimal complaint values. These are based on two kinds of per capita complaint criteria and each involve a lower and upper bound of the core. In the spirit of the nucleolus, these two values are obtained by lexicographically minimizing a maximal complaint vector associated with each of the per capita complaint criterion. Interestingly, the upper and lower optimal complaint values respectively coincide with the Equal Allocation of Non-Separable Contributions and the Center-of-Gravity of Imputation Set Value for a large class of TU-games. Moreover, a characterization of these two values is achieved by invoking the equal upper and lower maximal per capita complaint properties together with efficiency.
