A Generalization of the AL method for Fair Allocation of Indivisible Objects [PDF]
, 2015 We consider the assignment problem in which agents express ordinal preferences over $m$ objects and the objects are allocated to the agents based on the preferences. In a recent paper, Brams, Kilgour, and Klamler (2014) presented the AL method to compute

This principle of consensual blocking, as well as the traditional core‐defining one of unilateral blocking and one straddling in ...
