We consider capacities and games whose value v(S) depend on the organization of N \ S, this organization being represented by a partition. Hence we deal with capacities and games depending on two arguments: a subset (coalition) S and a partition π containing S. We call embedded coalition any such pair (S, π). We first provide a suitable structure for the set of embedded coalitions, study its pr...

We introduce a measure of entropy for any discrete Choquet capacity and we interpret it in the setting of aggregation by the Choquet integral.

A structural tension is pointed out between, on the one hand, the fact that the explicandum of genealogical stories is a specifically human trait and, on the other hand, the tacit a...

We explore the evolutionary antecedents of morality in the context of emergentism, giving considerable attention to the biological traits that undergird awareness and our emergent human forms of mind.
