An Approach from Bankruptcy Rules Applied to the Apportionment Problem in Proportional Electoral Systems

An Approach from Bankruptcy Rules Applied to the Apportionment Problem in Proportional Electoral Systems

(Discrete) bankruptcy problems associated with apportionment problems have been defined. The authors studied which allocations for apportionment problems have been obtained when (discrete) bankruptcy rules were applied to the associated bankruptcy problems. They have shown that the (discrete) constr...
