The Axiom of Choice and Its Implications

نویسنده

  • KEVIN BARNUM
چکیده

In this paper we will look at the Axiom of Choice and some of the various implications it has. These implications include a number of equivalent statements, and also some less accepted ideas. The proofs discussed will give us an idea of why the Axiom of Choice is so powerful, but also so controversial.

On 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.

On Tychonoff's type theorem via grills

‎Let ${X_{alpha}:alphainLambda}$ be a collection of topological spaces‎, ‎and $mathcal {G}_{alpha}$ be a grill on $X_{alpha}$ for each $alphainLambda$‎. ‎We consider Tychonoffrq{}s type Theorem for $X=prod_{alphainLambda}X_{alpha}$ via the above grills and a natural grill on $X$ ‎related to these grills, and present a simple proof to this theorem‎. ‎This immediately yields the classical theorem...

Fuzzy 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.

IFRS or IFRS-Based Domestic Standards: Implications for China’s Future Accounting System

People’s Republic of China has a long history of accounting and accounting reforms. This study focuses on “whether China should continue its IFRS-based domestic accounting standards or full convergence with the IFRS is more appropriate”? Both quantitative and qualitative approaches are applied to answer the research question of this work. Binary choice model has been used in the statistical ana...

Cost Efficiency Evaluation via Data Envelopment Analysis Approach for Undesirable Outputs based on the Weak Disposability Axiom (Case Study: 56 Electricity Producing Thermal Power Plants in Iran)

Cost efficiency evaluation is a very important and applicable issue in Data Envelopment ‎Analysis (DEA). In this paper, the classical cost efficiency model in which all the input ‎prices are known and fixed for each decision making unit is developed via undesirable ‎outputs with the weak disposability axiom. The proposed model is a nonlinear model ‎under the variable returns to scale condition,...
