Social homogeneity and Condorcet's paradox
Public Choice, 1980This paper has examined the relationship between social homogeneity measured by σ(p) = p12 + ... + p62 and the likelihood of Condorcet's paradox. Attention was restricted to three-candidate elections. It was shown first that the most general restriction on p vectors that produces a definite inverse relationship between σ(p) and the limit-in-voters ...

Condorcet's paradox for weak preference orderings
European Journal of Political Economy, 2001Abstract We provide in this note some analytical representations for the probability of the Condorcet paradox when voter indifference between alternatives is allowed. The probability of having a Condorcet winner is also considered. Our results show that indifference reduces the likelihood of the paradox, thus improving the ability of the majority ...

The expected probability of Condorcet's paradox
Economics Letters, 1981Abstract Let P ( n,p ) be the probability that there is a Condorcet winner on three alternatives for n (odd) voters. The vector p defines the probability that a randomly selected voter will have any of the six linear rankings on three alternatives as his or her preference ranking.

Condorcet's Paradox with Three Candidates
Studies in Choice and Welfare, 2009Condorcet formally developed the notion of cyclical majorities over two centuries ago (Condorcet, 1785), and Peter Fishburn introduced me to that phenomenon in 1971. When Peter first described the idea behind Condorcet’s Paradox during a course in Social Choice Theory at Pennsylvania State University, my response was that the phenomenon simply could ...

A note on Condorcet's other paradox [PDF]
We report in this note some results on the theoretical likelihood of Condorcet's Other Paradox in three alternative elections. This paradox occurs when we have a voting situation such that no Wheighted Scoring Rule (WSR) will select the Pairwise Majority Rule Winner as the WSR winner.

An elementary proof of the conditions for a generalized Condorcet paradox
Public Choice, 1993We give an elementary proof of the relationship between the possibility of a generalized majority rule cycle and the number of voters, V, the number of alternatives, A, and the number required for a majority, M.

No Show Paradox and the Golden Number in Generalized Condorcet Voting Methods [PDF]
This paper extends the analysis of the so called No Show Paradox to the context of generalized q-Condorcet voting correspondences, in which the q-Condorcet winner is defined as the candidate who wins to any other by a qualified majority q higher than ...
