Often it is necessary to make rather severe simplifying assumptions in order to be able to handle such problems, our model can be refine by including more parameters to include more broad conflict situations. Our conflict model did not have destructive effects. One way to alter this assumption ...

The Topology of Change: Foundations of Probability with Black Swans
... essentially bounded real valued functions on R, which we endow with the ”topology of change”, defined as the sup norm f : R → R, namely k f k= ess supR | f (x) | . Recall that the functions in L∞ are defined a.e. with respect to the Lebesgue measure on R, and are each absolutely continuous with resp ...
