We establish a calculus characterization of the core of supermodular games, which reduces the description of the core to the computation of suitable Gateaux derivatives of the Choquet integrals associated with the game. Our result generalizes to infinite games a classic result of Shapley (1971)....

We show that the monotone continuity condition introduced by Villegas (1964) and Arrow (1970) is the behavioral counterpart of countable additivity (and relative weak compactness) in a multiple priors model. This generalizes their original result, in which the special case of a singleton set of...

We provide a behavioral foundation to the notion of ‘mixture’ of acts, which is used to great advantage in he decision setting introduced by Anscombe and Aumann. Our construction allows one to formulate mixture-space axioms even in a fully sub-jective setting, without assuming the existence...

The objective of this paper is to show how ambiguity, and a decision maker (DM)'s response to it, can be modelled formally in the context of a very general decision model. In the first part of the paper we introduce an "unambiguous preference" relation derived from the DM's preferences, and show...

We consider Choquet pricing functionals for insurance and financial markets. We show that when they depend on the distribution of the asset under a given probability measure, they reduce to standard expectations once are available on the market assets without bid-ask spreads.

In the classic Anscombe and Aumann decision setting, we give necessary and sufficient conditions that guarantee the existence of a utility function u on outcomes and an ambiguity index c on the set of all probabilities on the states of the world such that acts are ranked according to the...

We show that under fairly mild conditions, a maximin expected utility preference relation is probabilistically sophisticated if and only if it is subjective expected utility.

We prove results that relate random correspondences with their measurable selections, thus providing a foundation for viewing random correspondences as "bundles" of random variables.

We propose a portfolio selection model based on a class of preferences that coincide with mean-variance preferences on their domain of monotonicity, but differ where mean-variance preferences fail to be monotone.

We consider a totally monotone capacity on a Polish space and a sequence of bounded p.i.i.d. random variables. We show that, on a full set, any cluster point of empirical averages lies between the lower and the upper Choquet integrals of the random variables, provided either the random variables...
