Single-Peakedness and Disconnected Coalitions [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Politics, 2002 Ordinally single-peaked preferences are distinguished from cardinally single-peaked preferences, in which all players have a similar perception of distances in some one-dimensional ordering. While ordinal single-peakedness can lead to disconnected coalitions that have a ‘hole’ in the ordering, cardinal single-peakedness precludes this possibility ...

On strategy-proofness and semilattice single-peakedness [PDF]
Games and Economic Behavior, 2020 We study social choice rules defined on the domain of semilattice single-peaked preferences. Semilattice single-peakedness has been identified as the condition that a set of preferences must satisfy so that the set can be the domain of a strategy-proof, tops-only, anonymous and unanimous rule.

Measuring Nearly Single-Peakedness of an Electorate: Some New Insights
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2021 After introducing a new distance measure of a preference profile to single-peakedness, directly derived from the very definition of single-peaked preferences by Black [4], we undertake a brief comparison with other popular distance measures to single-peakedness. We then tackle the computational aspects of the optimization problem raised by the proposed

Effects of High-Order Nonlinearities on Freak Wave Generation in Random Sea States [PDF]
Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2022 High-order nonlinearities may be an important cause of freak wave generation; however, it is still unclear how to stimulate the generation of freak waves in deep-water random waves.

Probabilistic model based on circular statistics for quantifying coverage depth dynamics originating from DNA replication [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Background With the development of DNA sequencing technology, static omics profiling in microbial communities, such as taxonomic and functional gene composition determination, has become possible.

On obvious strategy-proofness and single-peakedness [PDF]
Journal of Economic Theory, 2020 We characterize the set of all obviously strategy-proof and onto social choice functions on the domain of single-peaked preferences. Since obvious strategy-proofness implies strategy-proofness, and the set of strategy-proof and onto social choice functions on this domain coincides with the class of generalized median voter schemes, we focus on this ...

On strategy-proofness and symmetric single-peakedness [PDF]
Games and Economic Behavior, 2011 We characterize the class of strategy-proof social choice functions on the domain of symmetric single-peaked preferences. This class is strictly larger than the set of generalized median voter schemes (the class of strategy-proof and tops-only social choice functions on the domain of single-peaked preferences characterized by Moulin (1980)) since ...

Single-Peaked Consistency for Weak Orders Is Easy [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 In economics and social choice single-peakedness is one of the most important and commonly studied models for preferences. It is well known that single-peaked consistency for total orders is in P.
