Satisfying Complex Top-k Fairness Constraints by Preference Substitutions
Summary: Formulates the minimum preference-vote substitutions needed to enforce proportional representation in top-k selections across protected attributes. Develops provable algorithms for binary, multivalued, multi-attribute, and 3+ attribute fairness, with large-scale validation. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
