The Valuative Theory of Foliations [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Mathematics, 2002
AbstractThis paper gives a characterization of valuations that follow the singular infinitely near points of plane vector fields, using the notion of L'Hôpital valuation, which generalizes a well known classical condition. With that tool, we give a valuative description of vector fields with infinite solutions, singularities with rational quotient of ...

Cumulative Prospect Theory Version with Fuzzy Values of Outcome Estimates

open access: yesRisks, 2021
Choosing solutions under risk and uncertainty requires the consideration of several factors. One of the main factors in choosing a solution is modeling the decision maker’s attitude to risk. The expected utility theory was the first approach that allowed

Value Theory Without Efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics of Operations Research, 1981
A semivalue is a symmetric positive linear operator on a space of games, which leaves the additive games fixed. Such an operator satisfies all of the axioms defining the Shapley value, with the possible exception of the efficiency axiom. The class of semivalues is completely characterized for the space of finite-player games, and for the space pNA of ...

Frontier estimation and extreme values theory [PDF]

THE HUMANIST THEORY OF VALUE [PDF]

open access: yesMind, 1910
MR. QUICK'S article in this periodical for April had a special interest for me, arising from the circumstance that, in my anti-pragmatist days (now happily passed) I was vexed by the same difficulties and moved to urge substantially the same objections to pragmatism as those which are so well presented in Mr. Quick's Criticism of Humanism.
