Choice problems with a 'reference' point

Ariel Rubinstein, Lin Zhou

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In many decision scenarios, one has to choose an element from a set S given some reference point e. For the case where S is a subset of a Euclidean space, we axiomatize the choice method that selects the point in S that is closest to e.
