Remarks on Utility in Repeated Bets
The use of von Neumann -- Morgenstern utility is examined in the context of multiple choices between lotteries. Different conclusions are reached if the choices are simultaneous or sequential. It is demonstrated that utility cannot be additive.

Optimal Bookmaking
We introduce a general framework for continuous-time betting markets, in which a bookmaker can dynamically control the prices of bets on outcomes of random events. In turn, the prices set by the bookmaker affect the rate…
Calibrating the Subjective
I conduct Rabin's (2000) calibration exercise in the subjective expected utility realm. I show that the rejection of some risky bet by a risk-averse agent only implies the rejection of more extreme and less desirable bet…
Asymptotically optimal strategies in a diffusion approximation of a repeated betting game
We construct a diffusion approximation of a repeated game in which agents make bets on outcomes of i.i.d. random vectors and their strategies are close to an asymptotically optimal strategy. This model can be interpreted…
The OCR Quest for Generalization: Learning to recognize low-resource alphabets with model editing
Achieving robustness in recognition systems across diverse domains is crucial for their practical utility. While ample data availability is usually assumed, low-resource languages, such as ancient manuscripts and non-wes…

We study consumption dependence in the context of random utility and repeated choice. We show that, in the presence of consumption dependence, the random utility model is a misspecified model of repeated rational choice.…
