Topological social choice [PDF]

The author surveys the main results on topological social choice theory as initiated by Chichilnisky. In topological social choice, individual preferences are assumed to be smooth over some Euclidean space. The main result in the field is that under suitable conditions, a continuous, anonymous, and unanimous social choice rule exists if and only if the
