Representation of strongly independent preorders by sets of scalar-valued functions
MPRA Paper No. 79284 (2017)
Abstract
We provide conditions under which an incomplete strongly independent preorder on a convex set X can be represented by a set of mixture preserving real-valued functions. We allow X to be infinite dimensional. The main continuity condition we focus on is mixture continuity. This is sufficient for such a representation provided X has countable dimension or satisfies a condition that we call Polarization.Author Profiles
