Debreu's representation theorems

Not to be confused with Sonnenschein–Mantel–Debreu theorem or Arrow–Debreu model.

In economics, the Debreu's theorems are preference representation theorems—statements about the representation of a preference ordering by a real-valued utility function. The theorems were proved by Gerard Debreu during the 1950s.
