Abstract

We give sufficient and necessary conditions for the non-emptiness of the alpha-core in the setting of strategic games with non-ordered and discontinuous preferences. In order to prove our results,we can avoid the use of Scarf’s Theorem for NTU-games, by suitably appealing to the Ky Fan minimax inequality. Examples clarify our conditions and allow the comparison of our results with the previous ones.
