An ordinal Shapley value for economic environments

We propose a new solution concept to address the problem of sharing a surplus among the agents generating it. The problem is formulated in the preferences-endowments space. The solution is defined recursively, incorporating notions of consistency and fairness and relying on properties satisfied by the Shapley value for transferable utility (TU)(TU) games. We show a solution exists, and call it the ordinal Shapley value (OSV)(OSV). We characterize the OSVOSV using the notion of coalitional dividends, and furthermore show it is monotone and anonymous.
