Regular Non Additive Multimeasures Fundaments And Applications

Regular Non-Additive Multimeasures. Fundaments and Applications

This book is intended to be an exhaustive study on regularity and other properties of continuity for different types of non-additive multimeasures and with respect to different types of topologies. The book is addressed to graduate and postgraduate students, teachers and all researchers in mathematics, but not only. Since the notions and results offered by this book are closely related to various notions of the theory of probability, this book will be useful to a wider category of readers, using multivalued analysis techniques in areas such as control theory and optimization, economic mathematics, game theory, decision theory, etc. Measure and integration theory developed during the early years of the 20th century is one of the most important contributions to modern mathematical analysis, with important applications in many fields. In the last years, many classical problems from measure theory have been treated in the non-additive case and also extended in the set-valued case. The property of regularity is involved in many results of mathematical analysis, due to its applications in probability theory, stochastic processes, optimal control problems, dynamical systems, Markov chains, potential theory etc.

Atomicity through Fractal Measure Theory

This book presents an exhaustive study of atomicity from a mathematics perspective in the framework of multi-valued non-additive measure theory. Applications to quantum physics and, more generally, to the fractal theory of the motion, are highlighted. The study details the atomicity problem through key concepts, such as the atom/pseudoatom, atomic/nonatomic measures, and different types of non-additive set-valued multifunctions. Additionally, applications of these concepts are brought to light in the study of the dynamics of complex systems. The first chapter prepares the basics for the next chapters. In the last chapter, applications of atomicity in quantum physics are developed and new concepts, such as the fractal atom are introduced. The mathematical perspective is presented first and the discussion moves on to connect measure theory and quantum physics through quantum measure theory. New avenues of research, such as fractal/multifractal measure theory with potential applications in life sciences, are opened.
