Implicit Promises and the Timing of Defined‐Benefit Pension Plan Freezes

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms time defined‐benefit (DB) plan freezes after CEO turnovers to protect CEO retirement benefits from cost cuts affecting the wider workforce. We document a significant increase in voluntary CEO turnovers just before the freeze, without notable post‐freeze changes.

Pseudo-random graphs and bit probe schemes with one-sided error

, 2011
We study probabilistic bit-probe schemes for the membership problem. Given a set A of at most n elements from the universe of size m we organize such a structure that queries of type "Is x in A?" can be answered very quickly.

The Making of the EU's Geoeconomic ‘Bazooka’: The Anti‐Coercion Instrument and the Role of Think Tanks in European Union Foreign Policy

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The Anti‐Coercion Instrument (ACI), the most powerful tool in the EU's geoeconomic arsenal, has its origins in the first Trump US presidency and has recently been brandished again as a potential response to Trump's coercive tariffs. Its centrality to the EU's ‘geoeconomic turn’ and the twists and turns of its legislative history have been ...

Efficient Dynamic Approximate Distance Oracles for Vertex-Labeled Planar Graphs

, 2017
Let $G$ be a graph where each vertex is associated with a label. A Vertex-Labeled Approximate Distance Oracle is a data structure that, given a vertex $v$ and a label $\lambda$, returns a $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximation of the distance from $v$ to the ...

A Hybrid Transformer–CNN Framework for Semantic Behavioral Modeling in Office Malware Detection

SECURITY AND PRIVACY, Volume 9, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Office documents have emerged as a prevalent attack vector, with adversaries increasingly embedding executable payloads and malicious macros to evade signature‐based detection mechanisms. To address these challenges, this study presents a hybrid Transformer–CNN semantic behavioral modeling framework for Office malware detection.

Sprinklers: A Randomized Variable-Size Striping Approach to Reordering-Free Load-Balanced Switching [PDF]

, 2014
Internet traffic continues to grow exponentially, calling for switches that can scale well in both size and speed. While load-balanced switches can achieve such scalability, they suffer from a fundamental packet reordering problem.

A Private Blockchain and IPFS‐Based Secure and Decentralized Framework for People Surveillance via Deep Learning Techniques

IET Software, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The modern metropolis essentially demands the use of state‐of‐the‐art, real‐time surveillance systems, which should be reliable, scalable, and respectful of privacy at the same time. Critical shortcomings in traditional architectures are single points of failure, poor scalability, frequent data breaches, and inadequately managed privacy.

Dynamic Integer Sets with Optimal Rank, Select, and Predecessor Search

, 2014
We present a data structure representing a dynamic set S of w-bit integers on a w-bit word RAM. With |S|=n and w > log n and space O(n), we support the following standard operations in O(log n / log w) time: - insert(x) sets S = S + {x}.
