Abstract
Multi-issue allocation situations are used to study the problem of having to divide an estate among a group of agents. The claim of each agent is a vector specifying the amount claimed by each agent on each issue. We present several axiomatic characterizations of the constrained equal awards rule generalizing some characterizations of these rules in bankruptcy situations.
