Schwartz Set

The Schwartz set is a term used in regard to voting systems. Given a particular election using preferential votes, the Schwartz set is the union of all possible sets of candidates such that for every set:
  1. every candidate inside the set is pairwise unbeatable by any other candidate outside the set, i.e. ties are allowed
  2. no proper (smaller) subset of the set fulfills the first property
The Schwartz set is always a subset of the Smith set, although not necessarily a smaller (i.e., proper) subset.
