Hallo,

here is another paper that confirms
the observation, that the Schulze
winner is almost always identical to
the MinMax winner:

See pages 67-70.

In the 4-candidate case, the Schulze
winner and the MinMax winner are
identical with a probability of 99.7%.

In the 5-candidate case, the Schulze
winner and the MinMax winner are
identical with a probability of 99.2%.

In the 6-candidate case, the Schulze
winner and the MinMax winner are
identical with a probability of 99.1%.

In the 7-candidate case, the Schulze
winner and the MinMax winner are
identical with a probability of 98.9%.
