We show that the class of all aggregation functions on $[0,1]$ can be generated as a composition of infinitary sup-operation $\bigvee$ acting on sets with cardinality not exceeding $\mathfrak{c}$, $b$-medians $\mathsf{Med}_b$, $b\in[0,1[$,…

The present manuscript is about application of It{\^o}'s calculus to the moment-generating function of the lognormal distribution. While Taylor expansion fails when applied to the moments of the lognormal due to divergence, various methods…

In this paper, we establish two minimax theorems for functions $f:X\times I\to {\bf R}$, where $I$ is a real interval, without assuming that $f(x,\cdot)$ is quasi-concave. Also, some related applications are presented.

We discuss a method for computing the generating function for the multiplicity distribution in field theories with strong time dependent external sources. At leading order, the computation of the generating function reduces to finding a…
