Considering fuzzy aggregation (aggregation of list of individual fuzzy preferences into a social fuzzy preference), Barrett, Pattanaik and Salles (BPS) showed that Arrow's impossibility theorem and Gibbard's oligarchy theorem are essentially preserved, given appropriate properties of fuzzy preferences and a sort of unrestricted domain condition. The authors consider that the set of alternatives has some specific mathematical structure, i.e., is the nonnegative orthant of a finite-dimensional Euclidean space and preferences satisfy monotonicity properties, while BPS other assumptions are preserved. They show that according to which monotonicity properties are made, possibility results or impossibility results prevail.
