We discuss several features of coherent choice functions – where the admissible options in a decision problem are exactly those which maximize expected utility for some probabil...

The input-output weight enumeration (distribution) function of the ensemble of serially concatenated turbo codes is derived, where the ensemble is generated by a uniform choice ov...
Abstract. We investigate cut-elimination and cut-simulation in impredicative (higher-order) logics. We illustrate that adding simple axioms such as Leibniz equations to a calculus ...
This paper initiates research on the foundations of ranking systems, a fundamental ingredient of basic e-commerce and Internet Technologies. In order to understand the essence and...
Maximal elements of a binary relation on compact subsets of a metric space define a choice function. An infinite extension of transitivity is necessary and sufficient for such a c...
