Geopolitical and geoeconomic shocks affect sovereign risk differently, with distinct transmission channels.

result Geopolitical shocks primarily increase sovereign credit spreads through direct repricing, while geoeconomic shocks mainly affect spreads through financial conditions and policy uncertainty.

Traders and investors involved in an option contract having the underlying stock in range bound are likely to lose their initial investment. Timing in buying an option contract is of capital importance. In a recent article [1] the hypothesis of range bound market is used in conjunction to Black-Scholes equation to find…

Currency volatility shocks predict lower excess returns, and buying weak transmitters outperforms selling strong ones.

problem Predicting currency returns using volatility shocks.
method Constructed a dynamic, directed network of volatility connections using option-implied volatilities.
result Currencies that transmit more volatility shocks earn lower excess returns.

Market trade-routes can support infectious-disease transmission, impacting biological populations and even disrupting causal trade. Epidemiological models increasingly account for reductions in infectious contact, such as risk-aversion behaviour in response to pathogen outbreaks. However, market dynamics clearly differ…

Changes in collateralization have been implicated in significant default (or near-default) events during the financial crisis, most notably with AIG. We have developed a framework for quantifying this effect based on moving between Merton-type and Black-Cox-type structural default models. Our framework leads to a singl…

We address the problem of maintaining high voltage power transmission networks in security at all time, namely anticipating exceeding of thermal limit for eventual single line disconnection (whatever its cause may be) by running slow, but accurate, physical grid simulators. New conceptual frameworks are calling for a p…

This paper uses deep reinforcement learning to automate electric transmission voltage control.

problem Automating voltage control in electric transmission systems.
method Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) applied to voltage control, with a novel DQN modification.
result DRL can automate voltage control at scale, but more research is needed.

This work interprets GELU and related activations via a first-order loss function.

problem Understanding and optimizing activation functions in neural networks.
method Complementary interpretation using the Gaussian first-order loss function.
result Calibrated or learned uniform-threshold gates are competitive and often outperform GELU, ReLU, and SiLU/Swish.

Anomaly detection identifies unusual malaria transmission patterns in Ghana.

problem Identifying atypical malaria transmission patterns in Ghana's spatiotemporal surveillance data.
method Consensus-based anomaly detection framework applied to monthly malaria surveillance data.
result High-burden areas are not necessarily those with the most frequent anomalous transmission.

Linear problems appear in a variety of disciplines and their application for the transmission matrix recovery is one of the most stimulating challenges in biomedical imaging. Its knowledge turns any random media into an optical tool that can focus or transmit an image through disorder. Here, converting an input-output …

Transmission imaging, as an important imaging technique widely used in astronomy, medical diagnosis, and biology science, has been shown in [49] quite different from reflection imaging used in our everyday life. Understanding the structures of images (the prior information) is important for designing, testing, and choo…

The European sovereign debt crisis has impaired many European banks. The distress on the European banks may transmit worldwide, and result in a large-scale knock-on default of financial institutions. This study presents a computer simulation model to analyze the risk of insolvency of banks and defaults in a bank credit…

CAPM interpretation is flawed; beta reflects proxy for underlying driver, not causal transmission.

problem Inconsistent interpretation of CAPM regression as contemporaneous causation.
method Formalized CAPM as a structural causal model and analyzed admissible three-node graphs.
result Contemporaneous betas act like proxies rather than mechanisms; genuine market-to-stock channel appears only at a lag.

This study presents an ANWSER model (asset network systemic risk model) to quantify the risk of financial contagion which manifests itself in a financial crisis. The transmission of financial distress is governed by a heterogeneous bank credit network and an investment portfolio of banks. Bankruptcy reproductive ratio …

In agreement with the recent research findings in the econophysics, we propose that the nonlinear dynamic chaos can be generated by the turbulent capital flows in both the quantitative easing transmission channels and the transaction networks channels, when there are the laminar turbulent capital flows transitions in t…

method Hawkes process-based technique leveraging high-resolution cell-phone location signals.
result Fine-grain spatiotemporal risk scores based on high-resolution mobility data provide useful insights for safe re-opening.

Crypto markets show negative spillovers between chains, not positive co-movements.

problem Negative spillovers in crypto asset returns across different blockchains.
method On-chain data from multiple blockchains (Ethereum, Solana, Binance, Arbitrum, Avalanche) analyzed over 2022-2025.
result Surges on one chain often coincide with declines on others, especially during attention shocks.

As financial instruments grow in complexity more and more information is neglected by risk optimization practices. This brings down a curtain of opacity on the origination of risk, that has been one of the main culprits in the 2007-2008 global financial crisis. We discuss how the loss of transparency may be quantified …
