The purpose of this paper is to show that the lattice Sn of permutations on a n-element set is bounded. This result strengthens the semi-distributive nature of the lattice Sn. To prove this property, we use a characterization of the class of bounded lattices in terms of arrows relations defined...

In a first time we draw a rough shape of a general formal framework for polynomial approximation theory which encompasses the existing one by allowing the expression of new types of results. We show how this framework incorporates all the existing approximation results and, moreover, how new...

This paper explores the consequences of non-additive expected utility on risk-sharing and equilibrium in a general equilibrium set-up. We establish that convexity of an agent's preferences (or strong uncertainty aversion) is equivalent to the convexity of his capacity and concavity of his...

We build spaces of q.p. (quasi-periodic) functions and we establich some of their properties. They are motivated by the Perceival approach to q.p. solutions of Hamiltonian systems. The periodic solutions of an adequat Partial Differential Equation are related to the q.p. solutions of an Ordinar...

In this paper, we study almost periodic (a.p.) solutions of discrete dynamical systems. We first adapt some results on a.p. differential equations to a.p. difference equations, on the link between boundedness of solutions and existence of a.p. solutions.

We have recalled that all interval doubling schemes of a bounded lattice L are in bijection with all different ways to conduct L starting from the two-element lattice by doublings of convex sets.

Dans le contexte des reseaux RNIS-LB offrant une garantie de service et de debit, il faut definir et utiliser des disciplines de service plus equitables que FIFO. Des disciplines ayant cette propriete dite de "Fair Queueing" ont deja ete proposees mais elles souffrent d'autres problemes comme...

This paper investigates necessary conditions for an equilibrium to exist on a reinsurance market with short sale constraints. It establishes that, equilibrium, there exists an equivalent probability measure under which the reinsurance premium is the compensator of the jump process describing the...
