โœฆ Synopsis

The objective of this paper is to investigate by means of simulation the impact of thirdparty entry on the spatial separation of candidates. Specifically, we do real-time simulations of Palfrey's (1984) model of electoral equilibria with entry after relaxing some of its assumptions. Our finding that the threat of third-party entry can induce virtually the same spatial separation of the major-party candidates as entry with certainty is both a strong and interesting result.

We obtain upper bounds for the number of arbitrary and symmetric matrices with integer entries in a given box (in an arbitrary location) and a given determinant. We then apply these bounds to estimate the number of matrices in such boxes which have an integer eigenvalues. Finally, we outline some op
