Quantum Theory of Probability and Decisions [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1999
The probabilistic predictions of quantum theory are conventionally obtained from a special probabilistic axiom. But that is unnecessary because all the practical consequences of such predictions follow from the remaining, non-probabilistic, axioms of ...

Ruin probability in a risk model with variable premium intensity and risky investments [PDF]

open access: yesOpuscula Mathematica, 2015
We consider a generalization of the classical risk model when the premium intensity depends on the current surplus of an insurance company. All surplus is invested in the risky asset, the price of which follows a geometric Brownian motion.

Conditioning in tropical probability theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We define a natural operation of conditioning of tropical diagrams of probability spaces and show that it is Lipschitz continuous with respect to the asymptotic entropy distance.Comment: 12 pages, V2 - updated ...

Gamblers Never Change their Habits

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2016
In the game ‘6 out of 45’ the gambler has to guess 6 different numbers out of 45. These guesses are far from being uniformly distributed, instead gamblers prefer certain numbers and avoid others.

Assessing schematic knowledge of introductory probability theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
[Abstract]: The ability to identify schematic knowledge is an important goal for both assessment and instruction. In the current paper, schematic knowledge of statistical probability theory is explored from the declarative-procedural framework using ...

General Conditions of Weak Convergence of Discrete-Time Multiplicative Scheme to Asset Price with Memory

open access: yesRisks, 2020
We present general conditions for the weak convergence of a discrete-time additive scheme to a stochastic process with memory in the space D [ 0 , T ] . Then we investigate the convergence of the related multiplicative scheme to a process that can

A quantum theoretical explanation for probability judgment errors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A quantum probability model is introduced and used to explain human probability judgment errors including the conjunction, disjunction, inverse, and conditional fallacies, as well as unpacking effects and partitioning effects.

Constructor theory of probability [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2016
Unitary quantum theory, having no Born Rule, is non-probabilistic . Hence the notorious problem of reconciling it with the unpredictability and appearance of stochasticity in quantum measurements.

Harold Jeffreys's Theory of Probability Revisited

open access: yes, 2009
Published exactly seventy years ago, Jeffreys's Theory of Probability (1939) has had a unique impact on the Bayesian community and is now considered to be one of the main classics in Bayesian Statistics as well as the initiator of the objective Bayes ...

Investigation of sample paths properties for some classes of φ-sub-Gaussian stochastic processes

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2021
This paper investigates sample paths properties of φ-sub-Gaussian processes by means of entropy methods. Basing on a particular entropy integral, we treat the questions on continuity and the rate of growth of sample paths.
