Research Abstract |
We solved some problems about rankings by using the theory of hyperplane arrangements. In the course of the argument, we also generalized a method in the arrangement theory. Specifically, we found the number of ranking patterns generated by the unfolding model when the restriction by dimension is weakest. Moreover, we extended the finite field method to ease the computational burden for solving our ranking problems numerically.
