Abstract: A common practice for resolving conflicts among a group of agents is to let the
majority decide. We formalize this principle and apply it to the problem of merging the
knowledge of multiple agents. We then postulate logical properties that all knowledge
merging operators should satisfy and give a model-theoretic characterization of all
merging operators that satisfy the postulates. It turns out that the operators that
satisfy the postulates are precisely those that induce a certain kind of... (Update)
