Existing matrix factorization is based on least squares and aims to yield a low-rank matrix to interpret the conditional sample means given the observations. However, in many real applications with skewed and…

We present the expected values from p-value hacking as a choice of the minimum p-value among mm independents tests, which can be considerably lower than the "true" p-value, even with a single trial, owing to the extreme skewness of the meta-distribution. We first present an exact probability distribution (meta-distrib…

We study the geometric nature of the Jacobi equation. In particular we prove that Jacobi vector fields (JVFs) along a solution of the Euler-Lagrange (EL) equations are themselves solutions of the EL equations but considered on a non-standard algebroid (different from the tangent bundle Lie algebroid). As a consequence …

We find that when measured in terms of dollar-turnover, and once ββ-neutralised and Low-Vol neutralised, the Size Effect is alive and well. With a long term t-stat of 5.15.1, the "Cold-Minus-Hot" (CMH) anomaly is certainly not less significant than other well-known factors such as Value or Quality. As compared to marke…
