A general strategy-proof fair allocation mechanism revisited

Andersson, Tommy LU (2009) In Economics Bulletin 29(3). p.1719-1724
Abstract
This paper revisits the fair and optimal allocation mechanism (Sun and Yang, Economics Letters 81:73-79, 2003) and demonstrates that it is coalitionally strategy-proof. The proof is valid for general preferences, it is simple and it is short.
