Ecological-economic viability as a criterion of strong sustainability under uncertainty
Strong sustainability, according to the common definition, requires that different natural and economic capital stocks have to be maintained as physical quantities separately. Yet, in a world of uncertainty this cannot be guaranteed. To therefore define strong sustainability under uncertainty in an operational manner, we propose to use the concept of viability. Viability means that the differen...

در این رساله t_n - علیت قوی تعریف می شود. این رده ها در جدول علیت فضا- زمان بین علیت پایدار و علیت قوی قرار دارند. یک قضیه برای رده بندی آنها ثابت می شود و t_n- علیت قوی با رده های علی کارتر مقایسه می شود. همچنین ثابت می شود که علیت فشرده پایدار از t_n - علیت قوی نتیجه می شود. بعلاوه به بررسی رابطه نظریه دامنه ها با نسبیت عام می پردازیم و ثابت می کنیم که نوع خاصی از فضا- زمان های علی پایدار, ب...
Economic Rationality under Uncertainty
Though uncertainty pervades all aspects of life and human action, it has a rather short history in economics. Surprisingly, Daniel Bernoulli’s (1738) notion of expected utility, which suggests that (in games of chance) monetary risky ventures ought to be evaluated by the sum of utilities of outcomes weighted by the corresponding probabilities, was not immediately used in economic theory. Indeed...
متن کاملSustainability of water ecosystem under uncertainty
The concept of sustainability, an abstract one by its nature, has been given a mathematical representation through the use of Fisher information as a measure. The measure is used to propose sustainability hypotheses for a dynamical system which has paved the way to achieve sustainable development through externally enforced control schemes. This work is an attempt to make further investigation ...
متن کاملEcological Sustainability as a Conservation Concept
Neither the classic resource management concept of maximum sustainable yield nor the concept of sustainable development are useful to contemporary, nonanthropocentric, ecologically informed conservation biology. As an alternative, we advance an ecological definition of sustainability that is in better accord with biological conservation: meeting human needs without compromising the health of ec...
