This report discusses the theory of fair division from its history to its uses in social sciences . Fair division goes beyond the envy free solution of the cake cutting problem to how people divide chores and rent and allocate assets in a divorce . Fair division can also potentially be used to solve social problems as with voting irregularities . |
