Spatial Voting simulations on a grid with random challengers

gridvoting

Voting simulations on a 2D grid of feasible outcomes

Helper class and functions for a Markov Chain voting model based on a series of status quos and random challenges.

This software is at a pre-release stage and not yet intended for general use.

Inputs:

• grid size in 2D -glimit <= x,y <= glimit
• utility functions for each voter for each point on the grid
• challenger strategy (zi True/False)

Outputs:

• Markov chain transition matrix
• Existence of core (absorbing) points
• Stationary distributions (no core)
• Diagnostic and distribution plots
