On Null-Continuity of Monotone Measures
The null-continuity of monotone measures is a weaker condition than continuity from below and possesses many special properties. This paper further studies this structure characteristic of monotone measures.

The authors review the connections existing, based on potential theory, between contact mechanics and equilibrium electrostatics. This little known correspondence is exploited so that problems scattered in many works can be easily solved by bringing to light their “duals” in elastic theory.

A standard protocol to report discrete stage‐structured demographic information
Abstract Stage‐based demographic methods, such as matrix population models (MPMs), are powerful tools used to address a broad range of fundamental questions in ecology, evolutionary biology and conservation science. Accordingly, MPMs now exist for over 3000 species worldwide.

A numerical scheme for the optimal control of groundwater pollution
Abstract A scheme is proposed for the numerical study of optimal control problems related to groundwater quality management in the case of nonpoint‐source pollution. The corresponding state equation is a system of coupled nonlinear partial differential equations.

Optimal allocations with α‐MaxMin utilities, Choquet expected utilities, and prospect theory
The analysis of optimal risk sharing has been thus far largely restricted to nonexpected utility models with concave utility functions, where concavity is an expression of ambiguity aversion and/or risk aversion. This paper extends the analysis to α‐maxmin expected utility, Choquet expected utility, and cumulative prospect theory, which accommodate ...

Correction to: Quantitative Approximation by Nonlinear Picard–Choquet, Gauss–Weierstrass–Choquet and Poisson–Cauchy–Choquet Singular Integrals [PDF]
By using the concept of Choquet nonlinear integral with respect to a submodular set function, we introduce the nonlinear Picard–Choquet operators, Gauss–Weierstrass–Choquet operators and Poisson–Cauchy–Choquet operators with respect to a family of submodular set functions. Quantitative approximation results of the order $$\omega _{1}(f; t)_{\mathbb {R}}

Hidden Markov models: Pitfalls and opportunities in ecology
Abstract Hidden Markov models (HMMs) and their extensions are attractive methods for analysing ecological data where noisy, multivariate measurements are made of a hidden, ecological process, and where this hidden process is represented by a sequence of discrete states.

Choquet integrals in potential theory [PDF]
This is a survey of various applications of the notion of the Choquet integral to questions in Potential Theory, i.e. the integral of a function with respect to a non-additive set function on subsets of Euclidean n-space, capacity.

Estimating Household Preferences for Coastal Flood Risk Mitigation Policies Under Ambiguity
Abstract Risk mitigation policies (like dike rising) are essential to address increasing coastal flood risks due to global warming. Furthermore, the optimal level of risk mitigation policy should be determined by public preferences for risk reduction.

Fixing Einstein's equations [PDF]
Einstein's equations for general relativity, when viewed as a dynamical system for evolving initial data, have a serious flaw: they cannot be proven to be well-posed (except in special coordinates).
