As cover monotonic tournament solutions induce social choice rules which are Nash implementable in certain non-standard frameworks (such as those set by Bochet and Maniquet (CORE Discussion Paper No. 2006/84, 2006) or A-zkal-Sanver and Sanver (Social Choice and Welfare, 26(3), 607-623, 2006), the discrimination generated by cover monotonicity becomes particularly notable when implementability is a concern.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTournamentsMonotonicityCondorcet ConsistencyNash İmplementationNash ImplementationEquilibriumRulesSetA new monotonicity condition for tournament solutionsConference Object2-s2.0-7795592600110.1007/s11238-009-9159-x4523Q243969Q3WOS:000280074600006
