Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a weaker notion of separability for set-systems and demonstrate that the class of maximal weakly separated systems precisely corresponds to the class of peak-pit maximal Condorcet domains. Additionally, we present a generalisation of arrangements of pseudolines and establish that the sets of chamber sets from them coincide with maximal weakly separated systems, enabling the construction of all peak-pit maximal Condorcet domains. Furthermore, we reveal that peak-pit maximal Condorcet domains coincide with connected maximal Condorcet domains.
期刊介绍:
The international, interdisciplinary journal Mathematical Social Sciences publishes original research articles, survey papers, short notes and book reviews. The journal emphasizes the unity of mathematical modelling in economics, psychology, political sciences, sociology and other social sciences.
Topics of particular interest include the fundamental aspects of choice, information, and preferences (decision science) and of interaction (game theory and economic theory), the measurement of utility, welfare and inequality, the formal theories of justice and implementation, voting rules, cooperative games, fair division, cost allocation, bargaining, matching, social networks, and evolutionary and other dynamics models.
Papers published by the journal are mathematically rigorous but no bounds, from above or from below, limits their technical level. All mathematical techniques may be used. The articles should be self-contained and readable by social scientists trained in mathematics.
