Abstract

In this paper, we study aggregation rules with nontrivial symmetric classes of invariant sets (restricted domains), assuming that they, unlike others, have a logical nature. In the simplest case, we provide a complete classification of such rules. Our primary tools are methods of universal algebra and the theory of closed classes of discrete functions.
