Interpersonal Comparisons of Utility : An Algebraic Characterization of Projective Preorders and Some Welfare Consequences

Candeal-Haro, Juan Carlos; Induráin-Eraso, Esteban; … - 2021

It is shown that any completely preordered topological real algebra admits a continuous utility representation which is an algebra-homomorphism (i.e., it is linear and multiplicative). As an application of this result, we provide an algebraic characterization of the projective (dictatorial)...
