Localization for Anchoritic Sensor Networks
We introduce a class of anchoritic sensor networks, where communications
between sensor nodes is undesirable or infeasible, e.g., due to harsh
environment, energy constraints, or security considerations
A Topological Proof of The Gibbard-Satterthwaite Theorem
We give a new proof of the Gibbard-Satterthwaite Theorem. We construct two
topological spaces: one for the space of preference profiles and another for
the space of outcomes. We show that social choice functions induce continuous
mappings between the two spaces. By studying the properties of this mapping, we
prove the theorem
