  2. Gibbard's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbard's_theorem

    Gibbard's theorem can be proven using Arrow's impossibility theorem. [citation needed] Gibbard's theorem is itself generalized by Gibbard's 1978 theorem [3] and Hylland's theorem, [4] which extend these results to non-deterministic processes, i.e. where the outcome may not only depend on the agents' actions but may also involve an element of ...

  3. Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbard–Satterthwaite...

    The Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem is a theorem in social choice theory. It was first conjectured by the philosopher Michael Dummett and the mathematician Robin Farquharson in 1961 [ 1 ] and then proved independently by the philosopher Allan Gibbard in 1973 [ 2 ] and economist Mark Satterthwaite in 1975. [ 3 ]

  4. Proof of impossibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_impossibility

    Gibbard's theorem shows that any strategyproof game form (i.e. one with a dominant strategy) with more than two outcomes is dictatorial. The Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem is a special case showing that no deterministic voting system can be fully invulnerable to strategic voting in all circumstances, regardless of how others vote.

  6. Revelation principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revelation_principle

    The revelation principle shows that, while Gibbard's theorem proves it is impossible to design a system that will always be fully invulnerable to strategy (if we do not know how players will behave), it is possible to design a system that encourages honesty given a solution concept (if the corresponding equilibrium is unique). [3] [4]

  7. Allan Gibbard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_Gibbard

    Gibbard's theorem is itself generalized by Gibbard's 1978 theorem [11] and Hylland's theorem, which extend these results to non-deterministic processes, i.e. where the outcome may not only depend on the agents' actions but may also involve an element of chance. The Gibbard's theorem assumes the collective decision results in exactly one winner ...

  8. Liberal paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_paradox

    Sen's proof, set in the context of social choice theory, is similar in many respects to Arrow's impossibility theorem and the Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem. As a mathematical construct, it also has much wider applicability: it is essentially about cyclical majorities between partially ordered sets, of which at least three must participate in ...
