How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T22791019 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

A.
Risk, Ambiguity and the Savage Axioms
"Risk, Ambiguity and the Savage Axioms" is a seminal 1961 paper by Daniel Ellsberg that challenges expected utility theory by demonstrating how people systematically prefer known risks over ambiguous ones, a phenomenon now known as the Ellsberg paradox.

expected utility theory (with John von Neumann)
Expected utility theory (with John von Neumann) is a foundational framework in economics and decision theory that models how rational agents make choices under uncertainty by maximizing the expected value of a utility function.

Notes on the Theory of Choice
Notes on the Theory of Choice is a concise graduate-level text in microeconomic theory that rigorously develops individual decision-making and choice under uncertainty, widely used as a foundational reference in modern economic analysis.

D.
Choquet game
The Choquet game is a topological infinite game between two players whose winning strategies characterize important properties of spaces, such as being a Choquet or Baire space.
-
E.
Rabin’s calibration theorem for expected utility
Rabin’s calibration theorem for expected utility is a result in behavioral economics showing that standard expected utility theory with concave utility cannot plausibly explain observed levels of risk aversion over small stakes without implying absurdly high risk aversion over large stakes.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
