Decisions under Risk and Partial Knowledge Modelling Uncertainty and Risk Aversion

چکیده
We deal with decisions under risk starting from a partial preference relation on a finite set of generalized convex lotteries, that are random quantities equipped with a convex capacity. A necessary and sufficient condition (Choquet rationality) is provided for its representability as a Choquet expected utility of a strictly increasing utility function. The restriction to concave utility functions is discussed. Moreover, we show that this condition, with or without the constraint of concavity for the utility function, assures the extension of the preference relation and it actually guides the decision maker in the extension process.

متن کاملDuopolistic competition under risk aversion and uncertainty
A monopolist typically defers entry into an industry as both price uncertainty and the level of relative risk aversion increase. The former attribute may be present in most deregulated industries, while the latter may be relevant for reasons of market incompleteness or the presence of technical uncertainty. By contrast, it has been shown that the presence of a rival hastens entry under risk neu...
