Expressing Properties of Coalitional Ability under Resource Bounds

We introduce Coalition Logic for Resource Games (CLRG) which extends Coalition Logic by allowing explicit reasoning about resource endowments of coalitions of agents and resource bounds on strategies. We show how to express interesting properties of coalitional ability under resource bounds in this logic, including properties of Coalitional Resource Games introduced by Wooldridge and Dunne in [1]. We also give an efficient model-checking algorithm for CLRG which makes it possible to verify the properties automatically.
