Rolling the dice: Recent results in probabilistic social choice

F Brandt - Trends in computational social choice, 2017 - books.google.com
When aggregating the preferences of multiple agents into one collective choice, it is easily
seen that certain cases call for randomization or other means of tiebreaking. For example, if …
