In the paper, we consider conditions providing coincidence of the cores and superdifferentials of fuzzy cooperative games with side payments. It turned out that one of the most simple sufficient conditions consists of weak homogeneity. Moreover, by applying so-called S*-representation of a fuzzy game introduced by the author, we show that for any vwith nonempty core C(v) there exists some game u such that C(v) coincides with the superdifferential of u. By applying subdifferential calculus we describe a structure of the core forboth classic fuzzy extensions of the ordinary cooperative game (e.g., Aubin and Owen extensions) and for some new continuations, like Harsanyi extensions and generalized Airport game.

The paper gives a brief account of von Neumann's contribution to the foundation of game theory: definition of abstract games, the minimax theorem for two-person zero-sum games and the stable set solution for cooperative games with side payments. The presentation is self-contained, uses very little mathematical formalism and caters to the nonspecialist. Basic concepts and their implications are in focus. It is also indicated how von Neumann's groundbreaking work initiated further research, and a few unsolved problems are also mentioned.
