Proportional Representation [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Politics, 1998 Using a recent article by Monroe as a springboard, we extend and generalize his system of proportional representation (PR) by developing a general method for determining a set of winners from the ballots. Central to our analysis is the use of integer programming, which is a type of linear programming.

Proportional Representation in Metric Spaces and Low-Distortion Committee Selection
AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2023We introduce a novel definition for a small set R of k points being "representative" of a larger set in a metric space. Given a set V (e.g., documents or voters) to represent, and a set C of possible representatives, our criterion requires that for any ...

Competing Principals? Legislative Representation in List Proportional Representation Systems
American Journal of Political Science, 2020We develop a new framework to study legislative representation in list proportional representation (PR) systems. Rejecting the classical closed-versus-open dichotomy, we instead conceptualize list PR as a continuum, reflecting different degrees of list ...

Proportional Representation in Practice: Quantifying Proportionality in Ordinal Elections
AAAI Conference on Artificial IntelligenceProportional representation plays a crucial role in electoral systems. In ordinal elections, where voters rank candidates based on their preferences, the Single Transferable Vote (STV) is the most widely used proportional voting method. STV is considered

Boosting Sortition via Proportional Representation
Adaptive Agents and Multi-Agent SystemsSortition is based on the idea of choosing randomly selected representatives for decision making. The main properties that make sortition particularly appealing are fairness --- where every citizen has an equal chance of being selected--- and ...

Full Proportional Justified Representation
Adaptive Agents and Multi-Agent SystemsIn multiwinner approval voting, selecting a proportionally representative committee based on the voters' approval ballots is an essential task. The notion of justified representation (JR) demands that any large "cohesive" group of voters should be ...
