Swap Bribery
In voting theory, bribery is a form of manipulative behavior in which an external actor (the briber) offers to pay the voters to change their votes in order to get her preferred candidate elected. We investigate a model of bribery where the price of each vote depends on the amount of change that the voter is asked to implement. Specifically, in our model the briber can change a voter’s preferen...
متن کاملThe Complexity of Bribery in Elections
We study the complexity of influencing elections through bribery: How computationally complex is it for an external actor to determine whether by a certain amount of bribing voters a specified candidate can be made the election’s winner? We study this problem for election systems as varied as scoring protocols and Dodgson voting, and in a variety of settings regarding homogeneous-vs.-nonhomogen...
متن کاملComplexity 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...
متن کاملPrices Matter for the Parameterized Complexity of Shift Bribery
In the Shift Bribery problem, we are given an election (based on preference orders), a preferred candidate p, and a budget. The goal is to ensure p’s victory by shifting p higher in some voters’ preference orders. However, each such shift request comes at a price (depending on the voter and on the extent of the shift) and we must not exceed the given budget. We study the parameterized computati...
متن کاملThe Complexity of Bribery and Control in Group Identification
The goal of this paper is to analyze the complexity of bribery and destructive control in the framework of group identification. Group identification applies to situations where a group of individuals try to determine who among them are socially qualified for a given task. We consider consent rules, the consensus-start-respecting rule, and the liberalstart-respecting rule.
