Title:  Aggregation of Choice Functions on Non-Rational Domains

Abstract:  We consider the problem of aggregating choice functions satisfying the Pareto axiom and Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives (IIA) on a class of domains. We first show that when agents have rational choice functions on all the binary sets (that is, all subsets of cardinality two), a choice aggregator satisfies the Pareto axiom and IIA if and only if it is a dictatorial choice aggregator. Next, we consider two domains of non-rational choice functions: limitedly rational domains and partially rational domains, and provide the structure of choice aggregators satisfying the Pareto axiom and IIA.
