A separation result for stationary preferences

Asen Kochov

Journal of Mathematical Economics, 2017, vol. 70, issue C, 123-126

Abstract: A group of n>1 agents have distinct stationary preferences on a space of consumption streams. Is there a single choice problem from which each agent has a unique and distinct optimum? That is, can one differentiate among the agents by asking them to make a single choice? This paper shows that the answer is yes.
