Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the equalities of different types of proper cores and dominance cores for the general worth function \(v\) without assuming it to be nonnegative. The different sufficient conditions are provided in this paper to guarantee the equalities of different proper cores and dominance cores for this general situation.
