Optimal Design of Experiments offers a rare blend of linear algebra, convex analysis, and statistics. The optimal design for statistical experiments is first formulated as a concave matrix optimization problem. Using tools from convex analysis, the problem is solved generally for a wide class of optimality criteria such as D-, A-, or E-optimality. The book then offers a complementary approach that calls for the study of the symmetry properties of the design problem, exploiting such notions as matrix majorization and the Kiefer matrix ordering. The results are illustrated with optimal designs f

In this book, different quantitative approaches to the study of electoral systems have been developed: game-theoretic, decision-theoretic, statistical, probabilistic, combinatorial, geometric, and optimization ones. All the authors are prominent scholars from these disciplines. Quantitative approaches offer a powerful tool to detect inconsistencies or poor performance in actual systems. Applications to concrete settings such as EU, American Congress, regional, and committee voting are discussed.

MASON CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS PREFACE Although no single discipline in the social sciences can plot the course of public policy, specialists from various fields may each in turn promote a better understanding of questions confronting gov ernment today. It is our hope that this volume will serve not only to make available studies growing out of our seminar program but also to invite contributions from others who are interested in ex amining
