Abstract: | In allocation problems of perfectly divisible goods, we study the equity property of ‘no-domination', according to which no agent can receive strictly more of all goods than any other agent. We prove that no-domination is incompatible with Pareto efficiency, as soon as preferences are allowed to be non-convex. |
