each agent is endowed with a share of one unit of an infinitely divisible and non-
disposable commodity. We focus on the distributional criteria Lorenz domination and variance domination. We show that a new rule, the egalitarian uniform rule, is the unique Pareto optimal and individually rational rule that Lorenz dominates and variance dominates all other rules satisfying these properties. Keywords: resource reallocation, single-peaked preferences, egalitarianism Classification-JEL: d63,d71,d74 Series: GSBE Research Memoranda Creation-Date: 20261102 Number: 014 File-URL: https://cris.maastrichtuniversity.nl/ws/files/326393556/RM26014.pdf File-Format: application/pdf File-Size: 494610 Handle: Repec:unm:umagsb:2026014 DOI: 10.26481/umagsb.2026014
