Approximation and hardness of Shift-Bribery

نویسندگان

چکیده

In the Shift-Bribery problem we are given an election, a preferred candidate, and costs of shifting this candidate up voters' preference orders. The goal is to find such set shifts that ensures wins election. We give first polynomial-time approximation scheme for case positional scoring rules, Copeland rule show strong inapproximability results.

Algorithms for Destructive Shift Bribery

We study the complexity of Destructive Shift Bribery. In this problem, we are given an election with a set of candidates and a set of voters (ranking the candidates from best to worst, each), a despised candidate d (typically, one of the current winners), a budget B, and prices for shifting d down in voters’ rankings. The goal is to ensure that d is not a winner of the election. We show that th...

Complexity of Shift Bribery in Committee Elections

We study the (parameterized) complexity of SHIFT BRIBERY for multiwinner voting rules. We focus on the SNTV, Bloc, k-Borda, and Chamberlin-Courant, as well as on approximate variants of the Chamberlin-Courant rule, since the original rule is NP-hard to compute. We show that SHIFT BRIBERY tends to be significantly harder in the multiwinner setting than in the single-winner one by showing setting...

Approximation Algorithms and Hardness of Approximation January

In the previous lecture we saw examples of greedy algorithms that made locally optimal decisions at each step to arrive at a solution that wasn’t too far from the optimal solution in the end. Specifically for the case of Set Cover we saw that this strategy leads to the best possible approximation algorithm we could hope for (unless NP ⊂ DTIME(n ), which is very unlikely). In general, we also no...
