Motivated by recent coali tion splitting events\, we assume that: i) the payoff sharing rule within coalitions is not necessarily set according to any optimality and/or stabi lity criterion\, and\, ii) players initially behave as if the coalition wi ll last for ever. If the sharing rule is non-negotiable or if renegotiatio n is very costly\, compliance to these rules may become unbearable for a g iven member as time passes because the rule\, being too rigid\, would make exit preferable. We examine this endogenous exit problem in the case of t ime-invariant sharing rules. Assuming a Nash non-cooperative game after (p otential) splitting where players play Markovian\, we characterize the sol utions of the endogenous exit problem in a linear-quadratic frame with end ogenous splitting time. We find that splitting countries are precisely tho se which use to benefit the most from the coalition. When initial pollutio n is high\, all shares should be low enough and none of the players should detain a payoff share larger than 1/2. If initial pollution is small\, we provide with an explicit interval for the sharing rule values preventing the collapse of the coalition.\n\n(with Raouf Boucekkine\, Carmen Camacho\ , Weihua Ruan)\n DTSTART:20230330T150000Z DTEND:20230330T160000Z LOCATION:CA\, ZOOM SUMMARY:How Do Coalitions Break Down?
