Symmetries of value

Noûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Standard decision theory ranks risky prospects by their expected utility. This ranking does not change if the values of all possible outcomes are uniformly shifted or dilated. Similarly, if the values of the outcomes are negated, the ranking of prospects by their expected utility is reversed.

Un'applicazione della teoria dei semigruppi ordinati nell'ambito della teoria delle decisioni

Le Matematiche, 1996
In this paper we introduce in the semigroup S, whose elements are to be evalued in terms of preference in a particular situation, a pre-order defined through semigroups of S.

Infinite ethics and the limits of impartiality

Noûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Beneficence—the part of morality concerned with promoting people's well‐being—is widely thought to be both agent‐neutral and impartial: it prescribes a common aim to all, and does not favor some individuals over others. This paper explores a problem for agent‐neutral, impartial beneficence from the perspective of “individualistic ethics” in ...

Towards a theory of presence

Noûs, EarlyView.
Abstract The present paper presents a new (formal) theory of presence according to which, roughly, to be present at a place is to have a delegate located at that place. One crucial feature of the theory is that something can be present at a place without thereby being located there.
