Reasoning About Social Choice Functions
We introduce a logic specifically designed to support reasoning about social choice functions. The logic includes operators to capture strategic ability, and operators to capture agent preferences. We establish a correspondence between formulae in the logic and properties of social choice functions, and show that the logic is expressively complete with respect to social choice functions, i.e., ...
متن کاملSelf-selective social choice functions
It is not uncommon that a society facing a choice problem has also to choose the choice rule itself. In such situations, when information about voters' preferences is complete, the voters' preferences on alternatives induce voters' preferences over the set of available voting rules. Such a setting immediately gives rise to a natural question concerning consistency between these two levels of ch...
متن کاملMinimally manipulable anonymous social choice functions
Gibbard [Gibbard, A., 1973. Manipulation of voting schemes: a general result. Econometrica 41, 587– 602] and Satterthwaite [Satterthwaite, M., 1975. Strategy-proofness and Arrow's conditions: existence and correspondence theorems for voting procedures and social welfare functions. Journal of Economic Theory 10,187–217] show that an anonymous social choice function with more than two alternative...
متن کاملGroup-Strategyproof Irresolute Social Choice Functions
We axiomatically characterize the class of pairwise irresolute social choice functions that are group-strategyproof according to Kelly’s preference extension. The class is narrow but contains a number of appealing Condorcet extensions such as the minimal covering set and the bipartisan set, thereby answering a question raised independently by Barberà (1977a) and Kelly (1977). These functions fu...
متن کاملRandomized Social Choice Functions under Metric Preferences
We determine the quality of randomized social choice mechanisms in a setting in which the agents have metric preferences: every agent has a cost for each alternative, and these costs form a metric. We assume that these costs are unknown to the mechanisms (and possibly even to the agents themselves), which means we cannot simply select the optimal alternative, i.e. the alternative that minimizes...
