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...

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.

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...

In this paper we propose two algorithms for solving both unweighted and weighted constrained two-dimensional two-staged cutting stock problems. The problem is called two-staged cutting problem because each produced (sub) optimal cutting pattern is realized by using two cut-phases.

We present a new result on the asymptotic behavior of non-autonomous subgradient evolution equations.

We first study the competitivity ratio for the on-line version of the problem of finding a maximum-order induced subgraph satisfying some hereditary property, under the hypothesis that the input graph is revealed by clusters. Next, we focus ourselves on two of the most known instantiations of...

We study attitudes towards risk in the Rank Dependent Expected Utility (RDEU) model. This model replaces expected utility by another functional, which is characterised by two functions, a utility function on outcomes in conjunction with a probability-perception function. We use the notion of...

Galois connections (or residuated mapping) are of growing interest in various domains related with or relevant from Classification. Among their many uses, we select some topics related with modelization and aggregation of dissimilarities and conceptual classification. We partially revist them in...

Normative models of behaviour under risk in the framework of expected utility (EU) or under uncertainty in the framework of subjective expected utility (SEU) are very limited. In this survey paper, it is shown that non-expected utility (non-EU) models based on the Choquet integral allow for much...
