On the Computational Complexity of Non-dictatorial Aggregation

Abstract: We investigate when non-dictatorial aggregation is possible from an algorithmic perspective. We consider the setting in which the members of a society take a position on a fixed collection of issues, where for each issue several different alternatives are possible, but the combination of choices must belong to a given set X of allowable voting patterns. Such a set X is called a possibility domain if there is an aggregator that is non-dictatorial, operates separately on each issue, and returns values among thos… Show more

“…Relation to the conference version. A preliminary version of this paper appeared in the Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Relational and Algebraic Methods in Computer Science (RAMiCS 2018) Kirousis, Kolaitis, and Livieratos (2018). The present full version, in addition to detailed proofs and several improvements in the presentation, contains the results about expressibility in Transitive Closure Logic and membership in NLOGSPACE.…”

“…Finally, we obtain analogous bounds for other types of non-dictatorial aggregation, as in (ii) above. Some preliminary results have been presented in [143], while an extended work including all the above is still unpublished and can be found in [142].…”

“…In a, yet unpublished, extended version of [143], Kirousis et al show that the problem of deciding whether the domain of a given formula is a possibility domain, is in ⌃ P 2 \ ⇧ P 2 and that of whether it is a local possibility domain, is in ⌃ P 2 and coNP-hard. Thus, we immediately obtain the following results.…”
