Arrow Index of a Fuzzy Choice Function
نویسنده
چکیده
The Arrow index of a fuzzy choice function C is a measure of the degree to which C satisfies the Fuzzy Arrow Axiom, a fuzzy version of the classical Arrow Axiom. The main result of this paper shows that A(C) characterizes the degree to which C is full rational. We also obtain a method for computing A(C). The Arrow index allows to rank the fuzzy choice functions with respect to their rationality. Thus, if for solving a decision problem several fuzzy choice functions are proposed, by the Arrow index the most rational one will be chosen.

Arrow's Axiom and Full Rationality for Fuzzy Choice Functions
A classical result for crisp choice functions shows the equivalence between Arrow axiom and the property of full rationality. In this paper we study a fuzzy form of Arrow axiom formulated in terms of the subsethood degree and of the degree of equality (of fuzzy sets). We prove that a fuzzy choice function verifies Fuzzy Arrow Axiom if and only if it is (fuzzy) full rational. We also show that t...
متن کاملArrow theorems in the fuzzy setting
Throughout this paper, our main idea is to analyze the Arrovian approach in a fuzzy context, paying attention to different extensions of the classical Arrow's model arising in mathematical Social Choice to aggregate preferences that the agents define on a set of alternatives. There is a wide set of extensions. Some of them give rise to an impossibility theorem as in the Arrovian classical mod...
متن کاملFuzzy choice functions, consistency, and sequential fuzzy choice
In the setting of fuzzy choice functions (Georgescu [6]), we explore the relationships among known and new consistency axioms. Then we define the notion of sequential application of fuzzy choice functions, and investigate its normative implications. The Fuzzy Arrow Axiom is preserved by this sequential procedure, which ensures that full-rationality is preserved too.
متن کاملOn characterizations of the fully rational fuzzy choice functions
In the present paper, we introduce the fuzzy Nehring axiom, fuzzy Sen axiom and weaker form of the weak fuzzycongruence axiom. We establish interrelations between these axioms and their relation with fuzzy Chernoff axiom. Weexpress full rationality of a fuzzy choice function using these axioms along with the fuzzy Chernoff axiom.
متن کاملConsistency indicators for fuzzy choice functions
Revealed preference theory was initiated by Samuelson [8] as a way of defining the rational behaviour of a consumer in terms of a preference relation associated with a demand function. This topic has been axiomatically treated by Arrow (1959), Richter (1966), Sen (1971) and many others. Papers Banerjee (1995), Georgescu (2004; 2005) attempt at developing a theory of revealed preference for fuzz...
