HOW TO COPE WITH DIVISION PROBLEMS UNDER INTERVAL UNCERTAINTY OF CLAIMS?

The paper deals with division situations where individual claims can vary within closed intervals. Uncertainty of claims is removed by weighting in a consistent way the upper and lower bounds of the claim intervals. Deterministic division problems with the obtained compromise claims are then considered and classical division rules from the bankruptcy literature are used to generate several procedures leading to efficient and reasonable rules for division problems under interval uncertainty of claims.
