How Do You Like Your Equilibrium Selection Problems? Hard, or Very Hard?
The PPAD-completeness of Nash equilibrium computation is taken as evidence that the problem is computationally hard in the worst case. This evidence is necessarily rather weak, in the sense that PPAD is only know to lie ”between P and NP”, and there is not a strong prospect of showing it to be as hard as NP. Of course, the problem of finding an equilibrium that has certain sought-after properti...
متن کاملWeighted electoral control
Although manipulation and bribery have been extensively studied under weighted voting, there has been almost no work done on election control under weighted voting. This is unfortunate, since weighted voting appears in many important natural settings. In this paper, we study the complexity of controlling the outcome of weighted elections through adding and deleting voters. We obtain polynomial-...
متن کاملHard Instances of Hard Problems
This paper investigates the instance complexities of problems that are hard or weakly hard for exponential time under polynomial time many one reductions It is shown that almost every instance of almost every problem in exponential time has essentially maximal instance complexity It follows that every weakly hard problem has a dense set of such maximally hard instances This extends the theorem ...
متن کاملSolving Hard Control Problems in Voting Systems via Integer Programming
We address various voting systems and types of control of elections and show how hard control problems can be modeled as integer programs. By means of the off-the-shelf solver Cplex we then demonstrate that the approach allows to treat the control of larger elections successfully. As a consequence, the hardness of a certain control problem is not a secure protection for the fraudulent falsifica...
متن کاملWhat Makes Some Control Problems Hard ? By Dennis S . Bernstein
Success or Failure? Control engineering has application to virtually all other branches of engineering, yet it is independent of any particular technology. There are numerous control engineering successes, including applications in electrical, mechanical, chemical, and aerospace engineering, in which control technology has significantly enhanced the value of products, vehicles, and processes. I...
