ClaimsProblems
1.0.0Analysis of Conflicting Claims
Overview
The analysis of conflicting claims arises when an amount has to be divided among a set of agents with claims that exceed what is available. A rule is a way of selecting a division among the claimants. This package computes the main rules introduced in the literature from ancient times to the present. The inventory of rules covers the proportional and the adjusted proportional rules, the constrained equal awards and the constrained equal losses rules, the constrained egalitarian, the Piniles’ and the minimal overlap rules, the random arrival and the Talmud rules. Besides, the Dominguez and Thomson and the average-of-awards rules are also included. All of them can be found in the book by W. Thomson (2019), How to divide when there isn't enough. From Aristotle, the Talmud, and Maimonides to the axiomatics of resource allocation', except for the average-of-awards rule, introduced by Mirás Calvo et al. (2022), doi:10.1007/s00355-022-01414-6. In addition, graphical diagrams allow the user to represent, among others, the set of awards, the paths of awards, the schedules of awards of a rule, and some indexes. A good understanding of the similarities and differences between the rules is useful for better decision-making. Therefore, this package could be helpful to students, researchers, and managers alike. For a more detailed explanation of the package, see Mirás Calvo et al. (2023), doi:10.1016/j.dajour.2022.100160.
