Abstract
We consider the class of hyperplane coalitional games (Hgames): the feasible set of each coalition is a half-space, with a slope that may vary from one coalition to another. H-games have turned out in various approaches to the value of general non-transferable utility (NTU) games. In this paper we introduce a simple model — prize games — that generates the hyperplane games. Next, we provide an axiomatization for the Maschler & Owen [4] consistent value of H-games.
