Abstract

For impartial division, each participant reports only her opinion about the fair relative shares of the other participants, and this report has no effect on her own share. If a specific division is compatible with all reports, it is implemented.We propose a family of natural methods meeting these requirements, for a division among four or more participants. No such method exists for a division among three participants.
