Proof of the impossibility of probabilistic induction
In this short note I restate and simplify the proof of the impossibility of probabilistic induction from Popper (1992). Other proofs are possible (cf. Popper (1985)).

A Generalization of Arrow's Impossibility Theorem Through Combinatorial Topology
To the best of our knowledge, a complete characterization of the domains that escape the famous Arrow's impossibility theorem remains an open question. We believe that different ways of proving Arrovian theorems illumina…

The decisive-set and pivotal-voter approaches have been used to prove Arrow's impossibility theorem. This study presents a proof using a proof calculus in logic. A valid deductive inference between the premises, the axio…
