Cooperative Fuzzy Games with Convex Combination Form

In this paper, a new class of cooperative fuzzy games named fuzzy games with convex combination form is introduced. This kind of fuzzy games considers two aspects of information. One is the contribution of the players to the associated crisp coalitions; the other is their participation levels. The explicit expression of the Shapley function is given, which is equal to the production of the Shapley function on crisp games and the player participation levels. Meanwhile, the relationship between the fuzzy core and the Shapley function is studied. Surprisingly, the relationship between them does coincide as in crisp case. Furthermore, some desirable properties are researched. Finally, an example is provided to illustrate the difference in fuzzy coalition values and the player Shapley values for four types of fuzzy games.
