Abstract

This paper is concerned with consistency properties for fuzzy consumers. We introduce the consistency conditions Fα, Fβ, Fδ as fuzzy forms of Sen's properties α, β and δ. Other consistency conditions are also studied: Fα2, Fβ(+), Fγ2 and FPI. The main results are: (1) A fuzzy consumer verifies Fα, Fβ if and only if the congruence axiom WFCA holds; (2) If h is a normal fuzzy consumer then Fδ holds if and only if the associated fuzzy preference relation R is quasi-transitive; (3) A fuzzy consumer is normal if and only if conditions Fα, Fβ Fγ2 hold.
