Hedonic Games and Treewidth Revisited
CoRR, 2022 We revisit the complexity of the well-studied notion of Additively Separable Hedonic Games (ASHGs). Such games model a basic clustering or coalition formation scenario in which selfish agents are represented by the vertices of an edge-weighted digraph $G=(V,E)$, and the weight of an arc $uv$ denotes the utility $u$ gains by being in the same coalition ...

Roles and Teams Hedonic Game [PDF]

In this model, agents view coalitions as compositions of available roles. An agent's utility for a partition is based upon which role she fulfills within the coalition and which roles are being fulfilled within
