Research Type Theoretical We investigate the existence and computation of envy-free and proportional allocations. We show that envyfree allocations that are both feasible and contiguous are guaranteed to exist for up to three agents with two types of preferences, when the number of layers is two. We further devise an algorithm for computing proportional allocations for any number of agents when the number of layers is factorable to three and/or some power of two.
