Wall Street ne connaît pas la tribu borélienne
Book in French — English title: Wall Street Does Not Know the Borel Sigma-Algebra
These essays on questions relating to epistemology, the human sciences and the environment offer an interdisciplinary excursion beyond mathematics. The situations are examined through the lens of the chance-interpretation duality, which compels us to refine conventional views and to take the issues at stake further.
What the topics addressed have in common is that they concern real life — everyday life, through certain aspects of contemporary society — as well as the mathematics involved in representing chance. They often arise from students’ questions.
A preliminary version of the chapter Wall Street ne connaît pas la tribu borélienne was circulated under the title L'efficience, une imposture scientifique réussie.
