We prove for totally monotone games defined on the set of Borel sets of a locally compact s-compact topological space a similar decomposition theorem to the famous Yosida-Hewitt's one for finitely additive measures. This way any totally monotone decomposes into a continuous part and a...

We prove for totally monotone games defined on the set of Borel sets of a locally compact sigma-compact topological space a similar decomposition theorem to the famous Yosida-Hewitt's one for finitely additive measures. This way any totally monotone decomposes into a continuous part and a...

Since von Neuman and Morgenstern's (1944) contribution to game theory, the expected utility criterion has become the standard functional to evaluate risky prospects. Risky prospects are understood to be lotteries on a set of prizes. In which case a decision maker will receive a precise prize...

Since von Neuman and Morgenstern's (1944) contribution to game theory, a rational decision maker will rank risky prospects according to the celebrated Expected utility criterion. This method takes lotteries i.e. (simple) probability distributions to represent risky prospects. If the decision...

We consider a decision maker facing uncertainty which behaves as a subjective expected utility maximizer. The value of information is traditionally captured as a greater expected utility the decision maker can achieve by selecting a best strategy as information arrives. We deal with the limit...

In classical measure theory, the Radon-Nikodym theorem states in a concise condition, namely domination, how a measure can be factorized by another (bounded) measure through a density function. Several approaches have been undertaken to see under which conditions an exact factorization can be...

Our aim is to provide some convergence theorems for the Choquet integral with respect to various notions of convergence. For instance, the dominated convergence theorem for almost uniform convergence is related to autocontinuous set functions. Autocontinuity can also be related to convergence in...
