| Continuous representation of interval orders by means of decreasing scales |
| Gianni Bosi |
Abstract We characterize the representability of an interval order on a topological space through a pair of continuous real-valued functions which in addition represent two total preorders associated to the given interval order. Such a continuous representation is obtained by using the notion of a decreasing scale.
