In general, results are limited to the finite case, which excludes, for instance, the case of economic environments. This paper deals with the possibility of extending those results to the context where the basic set of alternatives is the n-dimensional Euclidean space. We present an extension of the leximax criterion described by Bossert, Pattanaik and Xu (1994) to this more general framework.18 p.application/pdfengCC Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)PreferencesUtilityFreedom of choiceLeximaxFreedom of choice: the leximax criterion in the infinite caseinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
