Abstract :
The author considers the noncooperative game with strategies consisting of utility functions and whose outcomes are coalitionally fair solutions for the case of a finite number of agents who wish to divide a finite number of commodities. It is shown that for such a game any equal-income competitive equilibrium allocation for the true utilities is a Nash equilibrium outcome
