Representation Theorems and the Foundations of Decision Theory∗
Representation theorems are often taken to provide the foundations for decision theory. First, they are taken to characterize degrees of belief and utilities.

We argue that representation theorems cannot serve either o...

On the Foundations of Qualitative Decision Theory
This paper investigates the foundation of rnaxipnin, one of the central qualitative decision criteria, using the approach taken by Savage (Savage 1972) to investigate the foundation and rationality of classical decision theory. This approach asks “which behaviors could result from the use of a particular decision procedure?” The answer to this question provides two important insights: (1) under...

In almost all current approaches to decision making, it is assumed that a decision problem is described by a set of states and set of outcomes, and the decision maker (DM) has preferences over a rather rich set of acts, which are functions from states to outcomes. However, most interesting decision problems do not come with a state space and an outcome space. Indeed, in complex problems it is o...
