Positive affine uniqueness of affine preference representations
ID: positive-affine-uniqueness-of-affine-preference-representations
Two real affine functionals on a convex set of lotteries that represent the same strict preferences differ by with . Equal utility values must first be shown to give equal values of the other functional. The induced function on the real interval of utility values preserves mixtures; anchor interpolation, including exterior points represented through an anchor, makes it linear throughout. Constant representations are handled separately and still admit a positive slope.
