Strength of preference over complementary pairs axiomatizes alpha-MEU preferences

Author

  • Hartmann, Lorenz

Abstract

Preferences over acts have an α-Maxmin Expected Utility (α-MEU) representation if they can be represented by the α-mixture of the worst and the best expected utility over a set of priors. The case α=1 is the Maxmin Expected Utility (MEU) model characterized in Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989).
