Pairwise strategy-proofness and self-enforcing manipulation (Q2432497)

The aim of this paper is, to weaken group strategy-proofness, which is frequently used in the literature on social choice theory. Therefore a so-called pairwise strategy-proofness is introduced, which does not require, that a social choice rule should be immune to manipulations by more than two agents. This condition is applied to various types of economies. Mathematically the proofs represent a skillfull interplay between properties (continuity, concavity, monotonicity) of preferences (and their associated utility functions) and Pareto efficiency of allocations.
