Several philosophers have recently advanced wager-based arguments for the existence of irreducibly normative truths or against nihilism. Here I consider whether these would cause a Pyrrhonian skeptic to lose her skepticism. conclude they not do so directly. However, if prompted different decision problem, which call normativity wager skeptics, be motivated attempt act in accordance with any rea...

We construct an index theorem for smooth infinite economies that shows that generically the number of equilibria is odd. As a corollary, this gives a new proof of existence and gives conditions that guarantee global uniqueness of equilibria.

We present a simple proof of existence of subgame perfect equilibria in games with perfect information.

Lévy driven term structure models have become an important subject in the mathematical finance literature. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the Lévy driven Heath–Jarrow–Morton type term structure equation. This includes a full proof of existence and uniqueness in particular, which seems to have been lacking in the finance literature so far.

It may be possible to scientifically test philosophical skepticism; at least this is what I shall maintain. The argument develops the naturalistic insight that there may be no particular reason to suppose that nature has selected Homo sapiens’ epistemic capacities such that we are ideally suited to forming a true theory of everything, or indeed, a true theory of much of anything.
