Derivations of large classes of facet defining inequalities of the weak order polytope using ranking structures

JOURNAL OF COMBINATORIAL OPTIMIZATION, 46(3).

By: A. Escobedo n & R. Yasmin*

author keywords: Order polyhedra; Weak orders; Rankings

A New Binary Programming Formulation and Social Choice Property for Kemeny Rank Aggregation

Decision Analysis, 18(4), 296–320.

By: Y. Yoo* & A. Escobedo*
