Time‐Scale Invariance in Transport and Relaxation
DOI: 10.1063/1.881289
An early theme in probability was calculating the fair ante for various games of chance. Nicolas Bernoulli introduced a seemingly innocent game, first published in 1713, that yielded a paradoxical result. The result has become known as the St. Petersburg paradox, because of an analysis written later by Daniel Bernoulli in the Commentary of the St. Petersburg Academy.
