  We present various results about Euclidean preferences in the plane under
$\ell_1$, $\ell_2$ and $\ell_{\infty}$ norms. When there are four candidates,
we show that the maximal size (in terms of the number of pairwise distinct
preferences) of Euclidean preference profiles in the plane under norm $\ell_1$
or $\ell_{\infty}$ is 19. Whatever the number of candidates, we prove that at
most four distinct candidates can be ranked in last position of a
two-dimensional Euclidean preference profile under norm $\ell_1$ or
$\ell_\infty$, which generalizes the case of one-dimensional Euclidean
preferences (for which it is well known that at most two candidates can be
ranked last). We generalize this result to $2^d$ (resp. $2d$) for $\ell_1$
(resp. $\ell_\infty$) for $d$-dimensional Euclidean preferences. We also
establish that the maximal size of a two-dimensional Euclidean preference
profile on $m$ candidates under norm $\ell_1$ is in $\Theta(m^4)$, i.e., the
same order of magnitude as under norm $\ell_2$. Finally, we provide a new proof
that two-dimensional Euclidean preference profiles under norm $\ell_2$ for four
candidates can be characterized by three voter-maximal two-dimensional
Euclidean profiles. This proof is a simpler alternative to that proposed by
Kamiya et al. in Ranking patterns of unfolding models of codimension one,
Advances in Applied Mathematics 47(2):379-400.
