Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our polynomial-time algorithms leave open how many alternatives can win through control (or manipulation). We therefore use the data from Preflib due to Mattei and Walsh [2013] to investigate empirically the likelihood of successful manipulation or agenda control. Since only one case of the possible and the necessary winner problems is polynomial-time solvable and since Preflib offers only a very restricted variant of incomplete preferences, we do not run experiments for these two problems. Our results are shown in Table 2.
