Ehlers, Lars On fixed-path rationing methods. (English) Zbl 1038.91059 J. Econ. Theory 106, No. 2, 472-477 (2002). In [H. Moulin, J. Econ. Theory 84, 41–72 (1999; Zbl 0917.90027)], fixed-path rationing methods are characterized by efficiency, strategy-proofness, consistency, and resource-monotonicity.Theorem (Moulin). A rule satisfies efficiency, strategy-proofness, consistency, and resource-monotonicity if and only if it is a fixed-path rationing method.In the note a straightforward proof of this theorem is given.
