Algorithm for automatic computation of the power variations in share tradings (Q1091288): Difference between revisions

An existing algorithm, for automatic computation of the control power of the shareholders depending on their stock shares, has shown some difficulties of application when variations of the game resulting from share tradings were to follow (owing to the great number of necessary iterations of the algorithm). The present work, connecting the above technique with recent results on ''critical stocks'', proposes a by-way leading to a computational saving, which can be decisive in most practical applications. Moreover, an answer shall be given to a problem raised by \textit{J. W. Milnor} and \textit{L. S. Shapley} [Rand Corp., Res. Mem. 2649, S. Monica, CA (1961)].
