In this project we intend to model individual decision making (DM), a cornerstone of microeconomic theory. First, we will participate in a long-standing discussion challenging the transitivity of preferences, a basic axiom of the expected utility theory. We will propose a DM theory with intransitive preferences and then explore its relationship to existing alternatives. In the next part we will...

Many-valued logics are a prominent family of non-classical logics whose intended semantics uses more than the two classical truth-values, truth/false. The study of these logics is stimulated by strong mutually beneficial connections with other mathematical disciplines such as universal algebra, topology, and model, proof, game and category theory. The achieved results have led to many interesting...

The accurate description of the complex thermomechanical behavior of solids requires the efficient treatment of strongly nonlinearly coupled partial differential equations systems. These stem from the combination of balance and constitutive equations, which in turn can be often rephrased in a variational setting from the specification of suitable equilibrium and dissipation potentials. The aim...
