Towards a Dichotomy of Finding Possible Winners in Elections Based on Scoring Rules
Abstract. To make a joint decision, agents (or voters) are often required to provide their preferences as linear orders. To determine a winner, the given linear orders can be aggre...

Towards a dichotomy for the Possible Winner problem in elections based on scoring rules
To make a joint decision, agents (or voters) are often required to provide their preferences as linear orders. To determine a winner, the given linear orders can be aggregated acc...

Minimum Cost Homomorphisms to Locally Semicomplete and Quasi-Transitive Digraphs
For digraphs G and H, a homomorphism of G to H is a mapping f : V (G)→V (H) such that uv ∈ A(G) implies f(u)f(v) ∈ A(H). If, moreover, each vertex u ∈ V (G) is associated ...
