The idea of agents in superposition is central to both encapsulated observers, i.e. Wigner’s-friend-type experiments, and correlations without definite causal order. An agent might be regarded as a thinking or computing entity that is able to perform operations on (other) quantum systems. In case of Wigner’s-friend setups, an agent’s ability to make predictions about other agents...

Many solutions to problems in machine learning and artificial intelligence involve solving a combinatorial optimization problem over discrete variables whose functional dependence is conveniently represented by a graph. This thesis addresses three types of these combinatorial optimization problems, namely, the maximum a posteriori inference in discrete probabilistic graphical models, the...

The interaction of capital and risk is of primary interest in the corporate governance of banks as it links operational profitability and strategic risk management. Senior executives understand that their organization's monitoring system strongly affects the behaviour of managers and employees. Typical instruments used by senior executives to focus on strategy are balanced scorecards with...

Cosa racconta il passato industriale delle Alpi? I vari studi contenuti in questo volume si interrogano su differenze e similitudini della patrimonializzazione dell’industria rispetto all’evoluzione della memoria e della costruzione patrimoniale promossa in questi ultimi decenni nel mondo alpino.

This paper studies the term structure implications of a simple structural model in which the representative agent displays ambiguity aversion, modeled by Multiple Priors Recursive Utility. Bond excess returns reflect a premium for ambiguity, which is observationally distinct from the risk premium of affine yield curve models. The ambiguity premium can be large even in the simplest log-utility...

En una economía formada por dos individuos, un bien posicional es un bien tal que lo que un individuo consume en cantidad positiva debe ser consumida por el otro en la misma cantidad negativa. De este modo, los bienes posicionales constituyen el caso opuesto al de los bienes públicos. Por ejemplo, si un individuo consume más de un bien público, todos los agentes consumirán más de ese...

Different coordinate systems allow to uniquely determine the position of a geometric element in space. In this dissertation, we consider a coordinate system that lets us determine the position of a two-dimensional point in the plane with respect to an arbitrary simple polygon. Coordinates of this system are called generalized barycentric coordinates in 2D and are widely used in computer...
