Abstract

The core and the stable set are possibly the two most crucially important solution concepts for cooperative games. The relation between the two has been investigated in the context of symmetric transferable utility games and this has been related to the notion of large core. In this paper the relation between the von-Neumann–Morgenstern stability of the core and the largeness of it is investigated in the case of non-transferable utility (NTU) games. The main findings are that under certain regularity conditions, if the core of an NTU game is large then it is a stable set and for symmetric NTU games the core is a stable set if and only if it is large.
