Abstract
We are concerned with the problem of core membership testing
for hedonic coalition formation games, which is to decide whether a
certain coalition structure belongs to the core of a given game. We
show that this problem is co-NP complete when players?preferences
are additive.
JEL Classi?cation : C71, C63.
Keywords : additivity, coalition formation, core, co-NP completeness,
hedonic games.

1 Introduction
The study of computational complexity in hedonic coalition formation games,
or simply hedonic games, has a short history, although these issues in coopera-
tive and non-cooperative game theory are being gradually recognized. Maybe
the reason is that the formal model of a hedonic game was only recently in-
troduced (cf. Banerjee, Konishi, and S?nmez (2001) and Bogomolnaia and
Jackson (2002)). This model consist of a ?nite set of players and a preference
relation for each player de?ned over the set of all coalitions containing the
corresponding player. The outcome of a hedonic game is a coalition structure
(i.e., a partition of the set of players into coalitions). A coalition structure
is called stable if there is no group of individuals who can all be better o¤
