This abstract can be classified into the field of fair division and more precisely into multi-agent resource allocation of indivisible goods, where the aim is to distribute some resources to the agents and meanwhile getting a fair allocation. We consider the framework from Chevaleyre et al.'s work "Allocating Goods on a Graph to Eliminate Envy" [1], where interactions between the agents are limited to a negotiation topology, represented as a graph. After introducing the details of this work I want to present an idea for expanding the environment by agents that are not only utility maximizers but that can have altruistic influences.
