Entanglement Swapping for Partially Entangled Qudits and the Role of Quantum Complementarity
Advanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.The entanglement swapping protocol is extended to partially entangled qudit states and analyzed through complete complementarity relations. Analytical bounds on the average distributed entanglement are established, showing how the initial local predictability and entanglement constrain the operational distribution.

Axioms and algorithms for inferences involving probabilistic independence
Information and Computation, 1991 AbstractThis paper offers an axiomatic characterization of the probabilistic relation “X is independent of Y (written (X, Y))”, where X and Y are two disjoint sets of variables. Four axioms for (X, Y) are presented and shown to be complete. Based on these axioms, a polynomial membership algorithm is developed to decide whether any given independence ...

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

The Independence Axiom and the Bipolar Behaviorist [PDF]
Developments in the theory of risk require yet another evaluation of the behavioral validity of the independence axiom. This axiom plays a central role in most formal statements of expected utility theory, as well as popular alternative models of ...

Buchanan and the Social Contract: Coordination Failures and the Atrophy of Property Rights
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT James Buchanan advocated that societies should be based on a social contract. He rejected anarchy, seeing it as a “Hobbesian jungle” that calls for government intervention to maintain social order. He also opposed theories of spontaneous order. These views led to debates about the compatibility of Buchanan's works with classical liberalism and

"A Simple Axiomatization of Iterated Choquet Objectives" [PDF]
A set of axioms which characterizes a preference representable by the iterated Choquet expected utility is presented. This objective function is attractive since it possesses a feature of dynamical consistency.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT George Herbert Mead is an oft forgotten or ignored American philosopher who was one of the originators of pragmatism. Today, he is recognised as a creative thinker who has teased out knotty problems that others in the field had not realised were problems. Understanding Mead's analysis has been made difficult because he died prematurely without

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.In the winter of 2021/2022, a winter track survey revealed 43–46 tigers (without cubs) in 5.4 thousand km2 of suitable habitats in the Southwest Primorsky Province of Russia. In the same period, a network of camera traps registered 54 adult/subadult tigers here.
