The core of games on convex geometries
Article Abstract:
A study has been conducted to develop a model of cooperative games in which only certain coalitions are allowed to form. The structure of allowable coalitions have been studied using the theory of convex geometries. Findings have indicated a game on a convex geometry is a real-valued function defined on the family L of the closed sets of a closure operator which satisfies the finite Minkowski-Krein-Milman property. It has also been found that games on convex geometries, the Weber set is contained in the core if and only if the game is quasi-convex.

Unboundedness of a convex quadratic function subject to concave and convex quadratic constraints
Article Abstract:
The parameters for the upper and lower bounds on a convex quadratic function limited by both concave and convex quadratic constraints are discussed. These parameters should be satisfied for the upper bounds to exist under concave constraints. A method involving the solution of a finite number of special structure linear programs is also developed to determine if the conditions are met. In addition, an algorithm to solve the functions is formulated.
