Coherent and Archimedean choice in general Banach spaces
I introduce and study a new notion of Archimedeanity for binary and non-binary choice between options that live in an abstract Banach space, through a very general class of choice models, called sets of desirable option sets. In order to be able to bring an important diversity of contexts into the fold, amongst which choice between horse lottery options, I pay special attention to the case where these linear spaces don't include all `constant' options.I consider the frameworks of conservative inference associated with Archimedean (and coherent) choice models, and also pay quite a lot of attention to representation of general (non-binary) choice models in terms of the simpler, binary ones.The representation theorems proved here provide an axiomatic characterisation for, amongst many other choice methods, Levi's E-admissibility and Walley-Sen maximality.

Lexicographic choice functions
We investigate a generalisation of the coherent choice functions considered by Seidenfeld et al. (2010), by sticking to the convexity axiom but imposing no Archimedeanity condition. We define our choice functions on vect…
Archimedean Choice Functions: an Axiomatic Foundation for Imprecise Decision Making
If uncertainty is modelled by a probability measure, decisions are typically made by choosing the option with the highest expected utility. If an imprecise probability model is used instead, this decision rule can be gen…
Decision MakingInterpreting, axiomatising and representing coherent choice functions in terms of desirability
Choice functions constitute a simple, direct and very general mathematical framework for modelling choice under uncertainty. In particular, they are able to represent the set-valued choices that appear in imprecise-proba…
Decision MakingBanach Wasserstein GAN
Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks (WGANs) can be used to generate realistic samples from complicated image distributions. The Wasserstein metric used in WGANs is based on a notion of distance between individual…
Learning in Hilbert vs. Banach Spaces: A Measure Embedding Viewpoint
The goal of this paper is to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of learning in Banach spaces over Hilbert spaces. While many works have been carried out in generalizing Hilbert methods to Banach spaces, in this…
