Fluctuation theorems and expected utility hypothesis
Physical Review E, 2023 The expected utility hypothesis is a popular concept in economics that is useful for making decisions when the payoff is uncertain. In this paper, we investigate the implications of a fluctuation theorem in the theory of expected utility. In particular, we wonder whether entropy could serve as a guideline for gambling. We prove the existence of a bound

Nonparametric Test of the Expected Utility Hypothesis [PDF]
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1992 AbstractA nonparametric test of the expected utility hypothesis is developed in this paper. The expected utility hypothesis is shown to hold if there exists a feasible solution to a particular system of linear inequalities. Furthermore, when a feasible solution exists, boundaries on the coefficient of absolute risk aversion can be calculated explicitly.

Applications of Choquet expected utility to hypothesis testing with incompleteness
Japanese Economic Review, 2023 AbstractThe Maximin and Choquet expected utility theories guide decision-making under ambiguity. We apply them to hypothesis testing in incomplete models. We consider a statistical risk function that uses a prior probability to incorporate parameter uncertainty and a belief function to reflect the decision-maker’s willingness to be robust against the ...

Modality, expected utility, and hypothesis testing
Synthese, 2023 AbstractWe introduce an expected-value theory of linguistic modality that makes reference to expected utility and a likelihood-based confirmation measure for deontics and epistemics, respectively. The account is a probabilistic semantics for deontics and epistemics, yet it proposes that deontics and epistemics share a common core modal semantics, as in

Smooth preferences and the approximate expected utility hypothesis
Journal of Economic Theory, 1987 Mild smoothness conditions on continuous complete preorders over lotteries imply that various local versions of the expected utility hypothesis are satisfied, i.e. for small deviations, there is a utility (representing the individual's preferences) that is linear in probabilities.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Immune effector cell‐associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis‐like syndrome (IEC‐HS) is a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory toxicity distinct from cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity following chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR‐T) therapy. In a single‐institution retrospective cohort of pediatric and young adult patients

A more general non-expected utility model as an explanation of gambling outcomes for individuals and markets [PDF]
, 2009 One feature of experimental work is the heterogeneity in risk attitudes and probability distortion displayed by agents. We outline a more general non-expected utility model, which nests the models of Markowitz, and Kahneman and Tversky.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction This study investigated the safety and efficacy of single‐needle Rheocarna therapy for chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) with wounds. Methods Six patients with CLTI involving ulcers unresponsive to revascularization underwent single‐needle Rheocarna treatment.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.
