Unified Representability of Total Preorders and Interval Orders through a Single Function: The Lattice Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new approach that deals, jointly and in a unified manner, with the topics of numerical (continuous) representability of total preorders and interval orders. This setting is based on the consideration of increasing scales and the systematic use of a particular kind of codomain, that has a key lattice theoretical structure of a completely distributive lattice and allows us to use a single function (taking values in that codomain) in order to represent both kinds of binary relations.

Numerical representability of fuzzy total preorders
We introduce the concept of a fuzzy total preorder. Then we analyze its numerical representability through a real-valued order-preserving function defined for each α-cut.
متن کاملNumerical Representability of Ordered Topological Spaces with Compatible Algebraic Structure
We analyze the numerical representability of total preorders defined on semitopological real algebras through continuous order-preserving real-valued functions that are also additive and multiplicative. The results obtained are used to interpret important concepts arising in Social Choice theory.
متن کاملA new approach to characterization of MV-algebras
By considering the notion of MV-algebras, we recall some results on enumeration of MV-algebras and wecarry out a study on characterization of MV-algebras of orders $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $6$ and $7$. We obtain that there is one non-isomorphic MV-algebra of orders $2$, $3$, $5$ and $7$ and two non-isomorphic MV-algebras of orders $4$ and $6$.
متن کاملNumerical Representation of Semiorders
We introduce a codomain to represent semiorders, total preorders and interval orders by means of a single map. We characterize the semiorders that are representable in the extended real line.
متن کاملNumerical representability of semiorders
In the framework of the analysis of orderings whose associated indifference relation is not necessarily transitive, we study the structure of a semiorder, and its representability through a real-valued function and a threshold. Inspired in a recent characterization of the representability of interval orders, we obtain a full characterization of the existence of numerical representations for sem...
