Peakedness and peakedness ordering in symmetric distributions [PDF]

open access: yes
There are many ways to measure the dispersion of a random variable. One such method uses the concept of peakedness. If the random variable X is symmetric about a point [mu], then Birnbaum [Z.W.

Single-peakedness Based on the Net Preference Matrix: Characterization and Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceIn this paper, we propose a new relaxation of the single-peaked property by constraining the net preference matrix instead of the preference profile.

Measuring the variability in supply chains with the peakedness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper introduces a novel way to measure the variability of order flows in supply chains, the peakedness. The peakedness can be used to measure the variability assuming the order flow is a general point pro- cess.

Top Monotonicity: A Common Root For Single Peakedness, Single Crossing and the Median Voter Result [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
When the members of a voting body exhibit single peaked preferences, majority winners exist. Moreover, the median(s) of the preferred alternatives of voters is (are) indeed the majority (Condorcet) winner(s).

Strategy-proof mechanisms with monotonic preferences: The case of pure public goods economies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
This paper explores a typical public finance problem where there are m public goods (education, transportation, police, etc.) provided in limited amounts due to budget constraints, and where individual's preferences are not known.

Single-Crossing, Strategic Voting and the Median Choice Rule [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper studies the strategic foundations of the Representative Voter Theorem (Rothstein, 1991), also called the "second version" of the Median Voter Theorem. As a by-product, it also considers the existence of non-trivial strategy-proof social choice

On Domains That Admit Well-behaved Strategy-proof Social Choice Functions [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we investigate domains which admit "well-behaved", strategy-proof social choice functions. We show that if the number of voters is even, then every domain that satisfies a richness condition and admits an anonymous, tops-only, unanimous ...

Trade rules for uncleared markets [PDF]

open access: yes
We analyze markets in which the price of a traded commodity is such that the supply and the demand are unequal. Under standard assumptions, the agents then have single peaked preferences on their consumption or production choices.
