Topological Aggregation of Inequality Preorders
نویسندگان
چکیده
An inequality preorder is defined as a complete preorder on a simplex which satisfies the properties of continuity and strict Schur-convexity (the mathematical equivalent of Dalton's "principle of transfers"). The paper shows that it is possible to aggregate individual inequality preorders into a collective one if we are interested in continuous anonymous aggregation rules that respect unanimity. The aggregation problem is studied within a topological framework introduced by Chichilnisky.

Topological Closure of Translation Invariant Preorders
Our primary query is to Önd conditions under which the closure of a preorder on a topological space remains transitive. We study this problem for translation invariant preorders on topological groups. The results are fairly positive; we Önd that the closure of preorders and normal-orders remain as such in this context. The same is true for factor orders as well under quite general conditions. I...
متن کاملOn the relationship between limit spaces, many valued topological spaces, and many valued preorders
Let (L , ∗, 1) be a residuated complete latticewith the underlying latticeL ameet continuous lattice. This paper presents a systematic investigation of the interrelationship between the categories of limit spaces, L-topological spaces, and L-preorders. The results exhibit a close connection between these different mathematical structures. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Interpersonal Comparisons of Utility: An Algebraic Characterization of Projective Preorders and Some Welfare Consequences It is shown that any completely preordered topological real algebra admits a continuous utility representation which is an algebra-homomorphism (i.e., it is linear and multiplicative). As an application of this result, we provide an algebraic characterization of the projecti...
متن کاملSome topological indices of graphs and some inequalities
Let G be a graph. In this paper, we study the eccentric connectivity index, the new version of the second Zagreb index and the forth geometric–arithmetic index.. The basic properties of these novel graph descriptors and some inequalities for them are established.
