Abstract: This paper proves existence of equilibrium and the arbitrage pricing theorem for an asset exchange economy, where the individual's preferences may be incomplete or intransitive. This extends existing results to a more general set of individual preferences. We also prove the arbitrage pricing theorem for a theory of choice under uncertainty by Bewley [1986]. These preferences model Knightian uncertainty by allowing for the possibility that preferences are incomplete.
