A new approach to group fairness treats it as a bargaining problem.
This paper simplifies the Nash Bargaining Solution for use in intellectual property cases.
Paper refines royalty determination using Bayesian methods.
NAMEx merges experts using Nash bargaining for improved performance.
Our work extends Coase's theorem to settings with uncertainty, showing how to maximize social welfare through property rights and learning.
We propose a projected gradient dynamical system as a model for a bargaining scheme for an asset for which the two interested agents have personal valuations which do not initially coincide. The personal valuations are formed using subjective beliefs concerning the future states of the world and the reservation prices …
The article improves the display of acceptable exchange ratios for merging companies.
Proposes a value-oriented forecast reconciliation method for renewables in electricity markets.
We introduce a strategic behavior in reinsurance bilateral transactions, where agents choose the risk preferences they will appear to have in the transaction. Within a wide class of risk measures, we identify agents' strategic choices to a range of risk aversion coefficients. It is shown that at the strictly beneficial…
A concise discussion of the axiomatic approach to the concept of parallel transport is presented. Attention is drawn to a bijective map between the sets of connections and (axiomatically defined) parallel transports. The transports along paths are pointed as a generalization of the (axiomatically defined) parallel tran…

PropFair algorithm ensures fair performance in federated learning.
Defines hierarchical clustering axioms for various densities.
We refurbish our axiomatics of differential geometry introduced in [Mathematics for Applications,, 1 (2012), 171-182]. Then the notion of Euclideaness can naturally be formulated. The principal objective in this paper is to present an adaptation of our theory of differential forms developed in [International Journal of…
In this paper we give an axiomatization of differential geometry comparable to model categories for homotopy theory. Weil functors play a predominant role.
The axiomatic approach to parallel transport theory is partially discussed. Bijective correspondences between the sets of connections, (axiomatically defined) parallel transports, and transports along paths satisfying some additional conditions, are constructed. In particular, the equivalence between the concepts "conn…
In our previous paper entitled "Axiomatic differential geometry -towards model categories of differential geometry-, we have given a category-theoretic framework of differential geometry. As the first part of our series of papers concerned with differential-geometric developments within the above axiomatic scheme, this…
Axiomatizes -quantiles, a generalization of quantiles.
In this article we prove that any unitary, axiomatic topological quantum field theory in four-dimensions can not detect changes in the smooth structure of M, a simply connected, closed (compact without boundary), oriented smooth manifold. However, as Donaldson-Witten theory (a topological quantum field theory but not a…
We formulate and prove an axiomatic characterization of conditional information geometry, for both the normalized and the nonnormalized cases. This characterization extends the axiomatic derivation of the Fisher geometry by Cencov and Campbell to the cone of positive conditional models, and as a special case to the man…
Axiomatizes the bid-ask market maker's quoting rule
In our previous paper (Axiomatic Differential Geometry II-3) we have discussed the general Jacobi identity, from which the Jacobi identity of vector fields follows readily. In this paper we derive Jacobi-like identities of tangent-vector-valued forms from the general Jacobi identity.
Given a complete and (locally) cartesian closed category U, it is shown that the category of functors from the category of Weil algebras to the category U is (locally, resp.) cartesian closed. The corresponding axiomatization for differential geometry based upon Weil functors is then given.
As the fourth paper of our series of papers concerned with axiomatic differential geometry, this paper is devoted to the general Jacobi identity supporting the Jacobi identity of vector fields. The general Jacobi identity can be regarded as one of the few fundamental results belonging properly to smootheology.
Improved UCB method for stochastic bandits using distance tuning.
The main goal of this paper is presentation a modern axiomatic approach to financial arithmetic. At the first, the axiomatic financial arithmetic theory was proposed by Peccati who has introduced the axiomatic definition of the future value. This theory has been extensively developed in past years. Proposed approach to…
In this paper is proposed a kind of model theory for our axiomatic differential geometry. It is claimed that smooth manifolds, which have occupied the center stage in differential geometry, should be replaced by functors on the category of Weil algebras. Our model theory is geometrically natural and conceptually motiva…
Paper proves impossibility of three desirable properties in node embedding.
Dual labor market model explains low inflation despite low unemployment.
We propose a continuum model for the description of buyer and seller dynamics in an Internet market. The relevant variables are the research effort of buyers and the sellers' reputation building process. We show that, if a commercial web-site gives consumers the possibility to rate credibly sellers they bargained with,…
New framework explains neural network behavior through geometric postulates.
Paper introduces variance-based measures for second-order uncertainty quantification in classification problems.
Diversification represents the idea of choosing variety over uniformity. Within the theory of choice, desirability of diversification is axiomatized as preference for a convex combination of choices that are equivalently ranked. This corresponds to the notion of risk aversion when one assumes the von-Neumann-Morgenster…
A framework for anonymized risk sharing without revealing identities or preferences.
Defines globalness measure for explainers using optimal transport.
Geometric invariant theory introduces stability conditions mirroring abelian category theory.
New stability theorem for hyperbolic metrics without volume bounds.
We introduce an axiomatic framework for the parallel transport of connections on gerbes. It incorporates parallel transport along curves and along surfaces, and is formulated in terms of gluing axioms and smoothness conditions. The smoothness conditions are imposed with respect to a strict Lie 2-group, which plays the …
We provide an axiomatic approach to the theory of local tangent cones of regular sub-Riemannian manifolds and the differentiability of mappings between such spaces. This axiomatic approach relies on a notion of a dilation structure which is introduced in the general framework of quasimetric spaces. Considering quasimet…
This article extends, in a stochastic environment, the Yagil (1987) model which establishes, in a deterministic dividend discount model, a range for the exchange ratio in a stock-for-stock merger agreement. Here, we generalize Yagil's work letting both pre- and post-merger dividends grow randomly over time. If Yagil fo…
An artificial general intelligence (AGI) might have an instrumental drive to modify its utility function to improve its ability to cooperate, bargain, promise, threaten, and resist and engage in blackmail. Such an AGI would necessarily have a utility function that was at least partially observable and that was influenc…
Projection maps which appear in the theory of buildings and oriented matroids are closely related to the notion of shellability. This was first observed by Bj{ö}rner. In this paper, we give an axiomatic treatment of either concept and show their equivalence. We also axiomatize duality in this setting. As applications o…
New Gini indices capture more nuanced income inequality.
The paper axiomatizes strong emergence in parameterized field theories and proves existence theorems.
The aim of this paper is to develop a new axiomatization of planar geometry by reinterpreting the original axioms of Euclid. The basic concept is still that of a line segment but its equivalent notion of betweenness is viewed as a topological, not a metric concept. That leads quickly to the notion of connectedness with…
Milnor proved two uniqueness theorems for axiomatic (co)homology: one for pairs of compacta (1960) and another, in particular, for pairs of countable simplicial complexes (1961). We obtain their common generalization: the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms along with Milnor's map excision axiom and a (non-obvious) common genera…
The paper develops axioms for uniquely decomposing functions with real arguments.
