Counterfactual Causality from First Principles? [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
In this position paper we discuss three main shortcomings of existing approaches to counterfactual causality from the computer science perspective, and sketch lines of work to try and overcome these issues: (1) causality definitions should be driven by a

First-Principles View on Photoelectrochemistry: Water-Splitting as Case Study

open access: yesInorganics, 2017
Photoelectrochemistry is truly an interdisciplinary field; a natural nexus between chemistry and physics. In short, photoelectrochemistry can be divided into three sub-processes, namely (i) the creation of electron-hole pairs by light absorption; (ii ...

First-principles calculations to investigate structural, elastic, electronic and thermodynamic properties of NbCoSn and VRhSn Half-Heusler compounds

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2022
In this study, we investigated the structural, elastic, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of NbCoSn and VRhSn HH compounds using the first-principles calculations as implemented in the density functional theory (DFT).

Intrinsic properties and dopability effects on the thermoelectric performance of binary Sn chalcogenides from first principles

open access: yesFrontiers in Electronic Materials, 2022
High-performance thermoelectric (TE) materials rely on semiconductors with suitable intrinsic properties for which carrier concentrations can be controlled and optimized.

First Principles, Fallibilism, and Economics [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
In the eyes of its practitioners, economics is both a deductive science and an empirical science. The starting point of its deductions might be thought of as first principles. But what is the status of such principles? The tension between foundationalism, the idea that there are necessary and secure first principles for economic inquiry, and ...

Lattice thermal conductivity of β-, α- and κ- Ga2O3: a first-principles computational study

open access: yesApplied Physics Express, 2023
The thermal transport properties of Ga _2 O _3 in different phases remain inadequately explored. We employ first-principles calculations and the phonon Boltzmann equation to systematically study the lattice thermal conductivity of β -, α - and κ -Ga _2 O

Agentic Finance: An Adaptive Inference Framework for Bounded-Rational Investing Agents

open access: yesEntropy
We propose Adaptive Inference, a portfolio management framework extending Active Inference to non-stationary financial environments. The framework integrates inference, control, and execution under endogenous uncertainty, modeling investment decisions as
