Cette thèse est principalement constituée de trois articles traitant des processus markoviens additifs, des processus de Lévy et d'applications en finance et en assurance.

Le premier chapitre est une introduction aux processus markoviens additifs (PMA), et une présentation…

Single-basined preferences generalize single-dipped preferences by allowing for multiple worst elements. These preferences have played an important role in areas such as voting, strategy-proofness and matching problems. We examine the notion of single-basinedness in a choice-theoretic setting. In conjunction with…

Single-plateaued preferences generalize single-peaked preferences by allowing for multiple best elements. These preferences have played an important role in areas such as voting, strategy-proofness and matching problems. We examine the notion of singleplateauedness in a choice-theoretic setting. Single-plateaued choice is…

We provide a brief survey of some literature on intertemporal social choice theory in a multi-profile setting. As is well-known, Arrow’s impossibility result hinges on
the assumption that the population is finite. For infinite populations, there exist nondictatorial social welfare…

Individual well-being is multidimensional and various aspects of the quality of life
need to be jointly considered in its measurement. The axiomatic literature on the
subject has proposed many indices of multidimensional poverty and deprivation and
explored the properties that…
