  • Decisive Coalitions and Coherence Properties 

    Bossert, Walter; Suzumura, Kotaro (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2009-03)
    In a seminal contribution, Hansson has demonstrated that the family of decisive coalitions associated with an Arrovian social welfare function forms an ultrafilter. If the population under consideration is infinite, his result implies the existence of ...
  • Product Filters, Acyclicity and Suzumura Consistency 

    Bossert, Walter; Suzumura, Kotaro (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2010-11-25)
    In a seminal contribution, Hansson (1976) demonstrates that the collection of decisive coalitions associated with an Arrovian social welfare function forms an ultrafilter. He goes on to show that if transitivity is weakened to quasi-transitivity as ...
  • Quasi-Transitive and Suzumura Consistent Relations 

    Bossert, Walter; Suzumura, Kotaro (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2009-03)
    We examine properties of binary relations that complement quasi-transitivity and Suzumura consistency in the sense that they, together with the original axiom(s), are equivalent to transitivity. In general, the conjunction of quasi-transitivity and ...
