This volume belongs to the series in Operations Research, and is devoted to the modern development and applications of the Shapley value-one of the most famous tools of the cooperative (non-antagonistic) game theory. [. . .] The book is innovative even for specialists in game theory and operations research, decision making and applied socio-economics research in various fields. -Stan Lipovetsky, Technometrics, USA A nice contribution, offering researchers an up-to-date view of the many roads along which the interest for the Shapley value continues to develop, both in theory and in practice -Professor Fioravante Patrone, University of Genoa This handbook, written by the most prominent scientists in the field, offers an up-to-date survey on the Shapley value, a fundamental concept of game theory which have seen many applications in economics, operations research and artificial intelligence. A reference for both researchers and practitioners. -Professor Michel Grabisch, Pantheon-Sorbonne University The Shapley value is alive and kicking: this book tells it all, from new axiomatic, mathematical, and computational insights, to applications in energy transmission, optimal queuing and terrorist networks. -Professor Herve Moulin, University of Glasgow The Shapley Value is one of the most important contributions to Game Theory - a contribution that turned into a field of research and influenced multiple disciplines, including Economics, Business Administration, Political Science, Operations Research and Computer Science. Almost 70 years after its appearance, the field is still thriving. The outstanding Handbook of the Shapley Value brings together a collection of contributions by leading experts from the field, with fresh and brilliant results about the tool and its applications. An essential reference for any researcher or student at advanced level, from any of the above mentioned disciplines, who wishes to be informed about this broadly applied concept and be inspired by it. -Professor Eyal Winter, Lancaster University, Management School and Hebrew University, Center of the Study of Rationality Co-operative game theory - particularly its crown jewel, the Shapley value - is alive and kicking, as this remarkable collection of recent contributions shows. -Professor Robert J. Aumann, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
