Ambiguity and Communication [PDF]
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.

Ambiguity and Social Interaction [PDF]
We present a non-technical account of ambiguity in strategic games and show how it may be applied to economics and social sciences. Optimistic and pessimistic responses to ambiguity are formally modelled.

We analyze a market populated by expected utility maximizers and smooth ambiguity-averse consumers. We study conditions under which ambiguity-averse consumers survive and affect prices in the limit. If ambiguity vanishes with time or if the economy exhibits no aggregate risk, ambiguity-averse consumers survive, but have no long-run impact on prices. In

L’écart dans l’œuvre de Percival Everett
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.

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.

The Ambiguity in Immunology [PDF]
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]
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.
