A canonical procedure is described, which associates to each infinite information collecting situation a related information collecting situation with finite state and action spaces, in such a way that the two corresponding IC-games are near to each other. Compensations for informants are then...

Under some weakenings of the condition of the well-known fixed point theorems of Brouwer, Kakutani and Banach the existence of approximate fixed points turns out to be still guaranteed. Also an approximate fixed point theorem is given for certain nonexpansive maps.

Based on a survey of the French Biotech SMEs (see annex 1), this article examines localisation effects in the biotechnology sector. It consists of two strands of analysis. The first presents a detailed statistical survey of the French biotechnology sector. Among other things, the survey shows...
