Divided Majority and Information Aggregation: Theory and Experiment
This paper both theoretically and experimentally studies the properties of plurality and approval voting when the majority is divided as a result of information imperfections.

Two types of equilibr...

The same is...
متن کاملTHEORY, EXPERIMENT AND PRACTICE OF SLAG ATTACK OF REFRACTORIES
Penetration and dissolution mechanisms are reviewed for predominantly single-phase oxide, two phase oxide and oxide-carbon composite refractories by liquid silicate slags. Theoretical models of these processes, as well as static (sessile drop, dipping and crucible) and dynamic (rotating finger and rotary slag) experimental tests, along with their practical limitations are considered. Direct (co...

In line with theoretical predictions, information on the popularity of policy choices is beneficial when a minority of voters is biased, b...
