Proceedings of the 24th ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2023 We explore the deliberate infusion of ambiguity into the design of contracts. We show that when the agent is ambiguity‐averse and hence chooses an action that maximizes their minimum utility, the principal can strictly gain from using an ambiguous contract, and this gain can be arbitrarily high.

L’écart dans l’œuvre de Percival Everett
Sillages Critiques, 2011 Ethics and aesthetics meet in Percival Everett’s works, and transform our vision of deviation. From a condemnable parting from the norm, deviation becomes the dynamic principle of creation.

Ambiguity and Communication [PDF]
Theory of Computing Systems, 2010 Theambiguity of a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) Nf or input size n is the maximal number of accepting computations of N for an input of size n. For a ll k, r∈N we construct languages Lr,k which can be recognized by NFA’s with size k·poly(r) and ambiguity O(nk), but Lr,k has only NFA’s with exponential size, if ambiguity O(nk) is required.

The Ambiguity in Immunology [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2012 In the present article, we discuss the various ambiguous aspects of the immune system that render this complex biological network so highly flexible and able to defend the host from different external invaders. This ambiguity stems mainly from the property of the immune system to be both protective and harmful.

THE AMBIGUITY OF KNOWABILITY [PDF]
The Review of Symbolic Logic, 2016 AbstractIn this paper it is shown that the Verification Thesis (all truths are knowable) is only susceptible to Fitch’s Paradox if one conflates the de re and de dicto interpretation of knowability. A formalisation shows that if one treats knowability as a complex second-order predicate, then the paradox falls apart.
