Measuring Thematic Funds Performance via an Approach Based on Observable and Latent Factors
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether thematic equity funds deliver abnormal performance relative to conventional global equity funds. Using Fama‐French models augmented with latent factors, we estimate fund‐level alphas, and apply the false discovery rate methodology to an estimated three‐group mixture distribution, separating good, null and bad ...

PEG400 regulates Falcipain 2 activity through an allosteric mechanism
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Falcipain‐2 can potentially be leveraged as a drug target due to its critical role as a haemoglobinase during the intra‐erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we investigate the regulation of the proteolytic and haemoglobinase activity of falcipain‐2 in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

On the Existence of One‐Sided Representations for the Generalised Dynamic Factor Model
Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the Generalised Dynamic Factor Model (GDFM) and show that the dynamic common component, that is, the common component of the GDFM, can be expressed using only current and past observations under mild assumptions. Specifically, we require (i) the dynamic common component to be purely non‐deterministic and (ii) the exclusion of ...

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The paper deals with the construction of a synthetic indicator of economic growth, obtained by projecting a quarterly measure of aggregate economic activity, namely gross domestic product (GDP), into the space spanned by a finite number of smooth principal components, representative of the medium‐to‐long‐run component of economic growth of a ...

The Accuracy Smoothness Dilemma in Prediction: A Novel Multivariate M‐SSA Forecast Approach
Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Forecasting presents a complex estimation challenge, as it involves balancing multiple, often conflicting, priorities and objectives. Conventional forecast optimization methods typically emphasize a single metric, such as minimizing the mean squared error (MSE), which may neglect other crucial aspects of predictive performance. To address this

Optimal Portfolio Choice With Cross‐Impact Propagators
Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We consider a class of optimal portfolio choice problems in continuous time where the agent's transactions create both transient cross‐impact driven by a matrix‐valued Volterra propagator, as well as temporary price impact. We formulate this problem as the maximization of a revenue‐risk functional, where the agent also exploits available ...

Economic Growth Vulnerability Across Euro Area Countries
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We analyse growth vulnerability in the four largest Euro Area (EA) economies, measured as a lower quantile of the growth distribution conditional on EA‐wide and country‐specific macroeconomic/financial factors. Growth densities are obtained under a normal activity scenario and under stressed conditions.

Frequency‐dependent contraction rates for the Bayesian method to the inverse source problem
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract This paper addresses an inverse source problem for acoustic waves in a range of frequencies. Our study has two main goals. First, although the problem is severely ill‐posed with a logarithmic stability estimate, we demonstrate, through careful analysis of the forward map's singular values, that increasing the frequency range enhances stability,

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 3, Page 1413-1426, September 2026.ABSTRACT Purpose This study revisits the tetrahedral encoding strategy originally proposed to accelerate Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT‐MRI) by reducing the requisite number of diffusion‐weighted measurements to four. We examine its practical limitations and explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can extend its utility. Specifically,

Australian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, Volume 68, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT In many fields of research, it is common to conduct experiments where several observations of the response variable are made on the same subject over non‐random conditions, generating longitudinal studies. A wide variety of techniques deal with this type of data when analysing population variations, many based on estimating functions.
