On Bending in the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Deformation Energy
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract The well‐established As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy has various forms. For surface deformation, commonly used energies contain an implicit bending penalty. We present a natural, continuous generalization that incorporates multiple ARAP versions with an implicit, user‐controllable bending penalty.

FaceMamba: Geometry‐Aware Mamba for Efficient Speech‐Driven 3D Facial Animation
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Speech‐driven 3D facial animation plays a pivotal role in immersive digital human applications. Recent works have explored Mamba‐based sequence modeling as an efficient alternative to Transformer, but they often suffer from limited cross‐modal alignment and insufficient control over fine‐grained facial deformations.

Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 424-440, April 2025.Abstract Eaton, Kortum, and Kramarz (2011) (EKK) discovered empirical patterns from French manufacturing firms that a baseline firm heterogeneity model could not explain. The authors proposed and estimated a model that closely matches the patterns observed in French data.

Building a Potemkin village in occupied China: Japan's wartime system of linked trade, 1939–43
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract The paper discusses the novel but little‐known exchange rate system of Japanese‐occupied North China during the Second Sino‐Japanese War, in which exporters were given the right to import in the form of a piece of yellow paper, which could be sold in the secondary market.

The role of structural transformation in regional convergence in Japan: 1874–2008
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Japan's regional convergence of productivity levels throughout the twentieth century can be best described as a cumulative process of ‘catching up, forging ahead, and falling behind’. Using a novel dataset spanning 135 years (1874–2008), this study finds support for a crucial role played by structural transformation in convergence. The pace of

Trademark Protection and Corporate Leasing: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment
Financial Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Does protection of trademark‐related intangible capital affect firms’ real contracting decisions? We exploit the Federal Trademark Dilution Act of 1996 (FTDA) as a plausibly exogenous strengthening of legal protection to answer the question.
