Some general theorems on the existence of order-preserving functions (Q1104212)

This paper proves some general theorems on the existence of order- preserving functions on topological ordered spaces. The proofs are based on Nachbin's generalization to topological ordered spaces of the theorems of Urysohn and Weil in general topology. The approach used by the author enables him to unify ealier work on the existence of continuous utility functions by Debreu, Eilenberg, Fishburn, Fleischer, and Peleg.
