\section{Liquid Democracy}
...
Recall the doctrinal paradox, which famously shows that consistent individual judgment sets sometimes leads to an inconsistent collective outcome:
\begin{center}
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{ l | c c c c }
& p & q & p \rightarrow q & \\
...
majority & 1 & 0 & 1 &
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{center}
In the more general setting of liquid democracy, inconsistent individual judgment sets may lead to consistent collective outcomes, for instance. This raises new research questions: what are the conditions for a collective outcome to be consistent? What are the criteria for rational delegation?
As an example, consider the following modification of the above case of discursive dilemma: assume that agent $c$ votes himself on $p$ but delegates to agent $b$ his vote on $q$ and on $p\rightarrow q$. We obtain the following situation:
\begin{center}
\begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{ l | c c c c }
& p & q & p \rightarrow q & \\
\hline
a & 1 & 0 & 0 & \\
b & 0 & 0 & 1 & \\
c & 1 & \red{0} & 1 & \\
\hline
majority & 1 & 0 & 1 &
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{center}
