On contractual solutions to hold-up problems with quality uncertainty and unobservable investments [PDF]
, 2010 A seller and a buyer can write a contract. After that, the seller produces a good. She can influence the expected quality of the good by making unobservable investments. Only the seller learns the realized quality. Finally, trade can occur.

Robust Bilateral Trade and an Essay on Awareness as an Equilibrium Notion [PDF]
, 2006 The aim of this thesis is to analyze various effects of informational constraints. In chapters 1 and 2 we consider a robust model of bilateral trade where traders have private reservation values and utility functions are common knowledge. In chapter 1 we

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We demonstrate a neuromorphic synapse in 2D Fe3GaTe2 flakes. The device operates via a current‐driven transformation from a skyrmion‐lattice to a stripe‐domain state, yielding a linear anomalous Hall resistance response with a tunable slope to enable multiply‐accumulate operations. Simulations confirm its viability in artificial neural networks.

Causal connection of macro and micro systems in function of spatial - temporal resonance
, 2023 By discovering natural laws, one learns about relatively stable causal connections between objects and phenomena. Causal relations can be functionally connected (when one phenomenon without exception causes another - natural phenomena) and stochastically
