Single-Peaked Choice
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2006-09)
Single-peaked preferences have played an important role in the literature ever since they were used by Black (1948) to formulate a domain restriction that is sufficient for the exclusion of cycles according to the majority ...
Non-Deteriorating Choice without Full Transitivity
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2006-08)
Although the theory of greatest-element rationalizability and maximal-element rationalizability under general domains and without full transitivity of rationalizing relations is well-developed in the literature, these ...
Infinite-Horizon Choice Functions
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2006)
We analyze infinite-horizon choice functions within the setting of a simple linear technology. Time consistency and efficiency are characterized by stationary consumption and inheritance functions, as well as a transversality ...
Multi-Profile Intergenerational Social Choice
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2008-06)
Ferejohn and Page transplanted a stationarity axiom from Koopmans’ theory of impatience into Arrow’s social choice theory with an infinite horizon and showed that the Arrow axioms and stationarity lead to a dictatorship ...
Rationality, External Norms and the Epistemic Value of Menus
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2008-06)
Ever since Sen’s (1993; 1997) criticism on the notion of internal consistency or menu independence of choice, there exists a widespread perception that the standard revealed preference approach to the theory of rational ...
A Characterization of Consistent Collective Choice Rules
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2006-08)
We characterize a class of collective choice rules such that collective preference relations are consistent. Consistency is a weakening of transitivity and a strengthening of acyclicity requiring that there be no cycles ...
Decisive Coalitions and Coherence Properties
(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 ...
Quasi-Transitive and Suzumura Consistent Relations
(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 ...
