    Szpilrajn, Arrow and Suzumura: concise proofs of extension theorems and an extension (English)
    0 references
    Due to its usefulness in various themes of economics, Szpilrajn's theorem, which states that every quasi-ordering has an ordering extension, has been applied by many researchers. Szpilrajn, Arrow and Suzumura have also presented important extensions of it. This paper provides a systematic approach in order to prove the various extension theorems given by the aforementioned researchers, as well as a generalisation of their results.
