摘要
In the framework of the analysis of orderings whose associated indifference relation is not necessarily transitive, we study the structure of an interval order and its representability through a pair of real-valued functions. We obtain a list of characterizations of the existence of a representation, showing that the three main techniques that have been used in the literature to achieve numerical representations of interval orders are indeed equivalent.
