The Random Utility Model with an Infinite Choice Space.
This essay presents a measure-theoretic version of the random utility model with no substantive restrictions upon the choice space. The analysis is based upon DeFinetti's Coherency Axiom, which characterizes a set function as a finitely additive probability measure. The central result is the equivalence of the random utility maximization hypothesis and the coherency of the choice probabilities over all allowable constraint sets.
