1 Correction to: Social Choice and Welfare https://doi.org/10.1007/s00355-019-01180-y

We are grateful to Zhengxing Zou for pointing out an insufficiency in the definition of an element of our new basis for the space of TU games, \(w_T\), in Sect. 5.1. With keeping the definition of \((N,w_T) \in \Gamma \) as it is for \(|T| \ne \frac{n}{2}\), we modify it by

$$\begin{aligned} w_T=u_T-\sum _{\ell \in N\backslash T} u_{N\backslash \ell }. \end{aligned}$$

only for \(|T|=\frac{n}{2}\).

According to this modification, the following changes are required.

Proof of Lemma 1

This immediately follows from the fact that \(|T| \ge 3\) and \(|N| \ge 3\). \(\square \)

Proof of Lemma 2

For \(|T| \ne \frac{n}{2}\), the proof is as it is. For \(|T|=\frac{n}{2}\), if \(i\in T\), \(w_T(N\backslash i)=0-0=0\), and if \(i\notin T\), \(w_T(N\backslash i)=u_T(N\backslash i)-u_{N\backslash i}(N\backslash i)=1-1=0\). \(\square \)
