Adjustment and Social Choice [PDF]

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2003
We discuss the influence of information contagion on the dynamics of choices in social networks of heterogeneous buyers. Starting from an inhomogeneous cellular automata model of buyers dynamics, we show that when agents try to adjust their reservation price, the tatonement process does not converge to equilibrium at some intermediate market share and ...

Social Choice Around the Block: On the Computational Social Choice of Blockchain [PDF]

International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2022
One of the most innovative aspects of blockchain technology consists in the introduction of an incentive layer to regulate the behavior of distributed protocols. The designer of a blockchain system faces therefore issues that are akin to those relevant for the design of economic mechanisms, and faces them in a computational setting.

Impossibility theorems in multiple von Wright’s preference logic [PDF]

Ekonomski Anali, 2014
By using the standard combining logics technique (D. M. Gabbay 1999) we define a generalization of von Wright’s preference logic (G. H. von Wright 1963) enabling to express, on an almost propositional level, the individual and the social ...

Balancedness of social choice correspondences [PDF]

Mathematical Social Sciences, 2019
A social choice correspondence satisfies balancedness if, for every pair of alternatives, x and y, and every pair of individuals, i and j, whenever a profile has x adjacent to but just above y for individual i while individual j has y adjacent to but just above x, then only switching x and y in the orderings for both of those two individuals leaves the
