Multi-Profile Intertemporal Social Choice
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2012-08)
We provide a brief survey of some literature on intertemporal social choice theory in a multi-profile setting. As is well-known, Arrow’s impossibility result hinges on
the assumption that the population is finite. For ...
Revealed Preference and Choice under Uncertainty

We employ the theory of rational choice to examine whether observable choices from feasible sets of prospects can be generated by the optimization of some underlying
decision criterion under uncertainty. Rather than ...
Product Filters, Acyclicity and Suzumura Consistency
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2010-11-25)
In a seminal contribution, Hansson (1976) demonstrates that the collection of

Expected utility without full transitivity
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2014-05)
We generalize the classical expected-utility criterion by weakening transitivity to Suzumura consistency. In the absence of full transitivity, reflexivity and completeness no longer follow as a consequence of the system ...
