Summary: This volume presents contemporary mathematical research on decision theory, voting systems, and game theory. The contributions explore how mathematical tools such as algebra, combinatorics, convex geometry, logic, and representation theory can be applied to analyze elections, strategic interaction, apportionment, fairness in voting procedures, and social choice problems. The work demonstrates the growing interdisciplinary role of mathematics in understanding collective decision-making and related issues in the social sciences.
