A Proposal to Extend Expected Utility in a Quantum Probabilistic Framework
Diederik Aerts, Emmanuel Haven, Sandro Sozzo
Expected utility theory (EUT) is widely used in economic theory. However, its subjective probability formulation, first elaborated by Savage, is linked to Ellsberg-like paradoxes a…
Context and Interference Effects in the Combinations of Natural Concepts
Diederik Aerts, Jonito Aerts Arguëlles, Lester Beltran +4
The mathematical formalism of quantum theory exhibits significant effectiveness when applied to cognitive phenomena that have resisted traditional (set theoretical) modeling. Relyi…
The extended Bloch Representation of Entanglement and Measurement in Quantum Mechanics
Diederik Aerts, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi, Sandro Sozzo
The quantum formalism can be completed by assuming that a density operator can also represent a pure state. An 'extended Bloch representation' (EBR) then results, in which not only…
Testing Quantum Models of Conjunction Fallacy on the World Wide Web
Diederik Aerts, Jonito Aerts Arguëlles, Lester Beltran +4
The 'conjunction fallacy' has been extensively debated by scholars in cognitive science and, in recent times, the discussion has been enriched by the proposal of modeling the falla…
Simple fractal calculus from fractal arithmetic
Diederik Aerts, Marek Czachor, Maciej Kuna
Non-Newtonian calculus that starts with elementary non-Diophantine arithmetic operations of a Burgin type is applicable to all fractals whose cardinality is continuum. The resultin…
Quantum cognition beyond Hilbert space II: Applications
Diederik Aerts, Lyneth Beltran, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi +2
The research on human cognition has recently benefited from the use of the mathematical formalism of quantum theory in Hilbert space. However, cognitive situations exist which indi…
