Power of voters and domain of preferences where voting by committees is strategy-proof
Article Abstract:
An extended model is developed to study the preference domain where voting by committees is strategy-proof. It is demonstrated that any choice of a voter is cross-shaped when voting by committees without a dummy voter is strategy-proof on some rich domain. The cross-shaped domain is the optimal point where voting by committees is strategy-proof save for extraordinary situations.

Notes, comments, and letters to the editor: a maximal domain for the existence of strategy-proof rules
Article Abstract:
The insistence of strategy-proofness, symmetry and efficiency will dictate that the single-plateaued domain will be the maximal domain. Single-plateau indicates that preference points are set in a closed interval, and are based on strategy-proofness, or the theory that agents can never benefit from misrepresenting their preferences.
