Abstract

The transformation of characteristic functions is an effective way to avoid time-inconsistency of cooperative solutions in dynamic games. There are several forms on the transformation of characteristic functions. In this paper, a class of general transformation of characteristic functions is proposed. It can lead to the time-consistency of cooperative solutions and guarantee that the irrational-behavior-proof conditions hold true. To illustrate the theory, an example of dynamic game on a tree is given.
