The problem considered is that of obtaining majority decisions which are transitive. We show that the corresponding optimization problems for the weighted l<sub>1</sub> norm and the weighted l<sub>2</sub> norm are identical. We then show that she general problem of minimizing the weighted l<sub>k</sub> norm can be equivalently...
