The Probability of Inconsistencies in Complex Collective Decisions
... distributions of the form discussed in Section 3 are equally probable. That expected probability coincides with the probability of the paradox under the so-called impartial anonymous culture assumption. In Section 5, I discuss two escape-routes from the paradox, the premise- and conclusion-based dec ...

In dynamic models, investors’ risk aversion is expressed by stochastic discount factors that include compensations for risk exposures. In this paper, we ask what can be l ...

What Could Be Objective About Probabilities
... “Humean mosaic”, then we have a clear breakdown of Humean supervenience: two worlds could agree completely in their Humean mosaic but disagree in their physical structure, since they are governed by different probabilistic laws. Since the evidence available to scientists in a world is determined by ...
