The Congruence Axiom and Path Independence

Journal of Economic Theory, 1999
Let \(X\) be a universal set and let \([X]\) denote the collection of non-empty subsets of \(X\). The authors consider choice functions \(C:S \to [X]\), where \(S\) is a non-empty subcollection of \(X\). Let \(A \in S\). A path in \(A\) is a finite ordered collection of non-empty subsets of \(A\) covering \(A\).

On the Axiomization of Conditional Independence

Kybernetes, 1992
Presents an investigation of some aspects of the axiomization of conditional independence of probability. Contributes to the understanding of Pearl's completeness conjecture and identifies a direction for revision which could remove some of the difficulties of Pearl's axiom set, but this alternative is not without its own difficulties.

Independent axioms for Convexity

Journal of Geometry, 1974
Join-structures or Convexity Spaces generalise the geometry of Vector Spaces by means of axioms concerning line segments. Most other generalisations of this type are just particular examples of Convexity Spaces. In the many papers on this subject the collection of axioms is too long: in this short note we exhibit an independent set of axioms for these ...

Independent set axioms, base axioms and circuit axioms of\\ supermatroids

SCIENTIA SINICA Mathematica, 2016
Dunstan et al. first proposed the concept of supermatroids in 1972 by generalizing the underlying sets of matroids from finite sets to finite posets. Barnabei et al. introduced another matroidal structure on posets, i.e., poset matroids. By the one-to-one correspondence between finite distributive lattices and finite posets, poset matroids are just ...

Asset Demand Without the Independence Axiom

Econometrica, 1989
An important application of the theory of choice under uncertainty is to asset markets, and an important property in these markets is a preference for portfolio diversification. If an investor is an expected utility maximizer, then (s)he is risk averse if and only if (s)he exhibits a preference for diversification.

Independent Axioms for Infinite-Valued Logic

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1963
Recent interest in Łukasiewicz' Lℵ0, raises the question whether this axiomatic system can be simplified [2]. It is known that Łukasiewicz' fourth axiom CCCPQCQPCQP is dependent [4] p. 51. The axiomatic system resulting from deleting the fourth axiom from Lℵ0 will be shown to be “minimal” in the sense that the axioms and rules of inference are mutually

Independence of axioms for fourgonal families

Journal of Geometry, 2001
According to \textit{L. Bader} and \textit{S. E. Payne} [J. Geom. 63, No. 1-2, 1-16 (1998; Zbl 0934.51003)], four axioms characterize the elation groups \(E\) of elation generalized quadrangles: \(E\) contains a family \(S\) of subgroups and, for each \(A\in S\), another subgroup \(A^*\) containing \(A\), subject to the conditions (1) \(A^*B=E\), (2) \(

Independent axiom schemata for S5

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1956
Leo Simons has shown that H1—H6 below constitute a set of independent axiom schemata for S3, with detachment for material implication “→” as the only primitive rule. He also showed that addition of the scheme (◇ ◇ α ⥽ ◇ α) yields S4, and that these schemata for S4 are independent. The question for S5 was left open.
