Of hired guns and ideologues: Why would a law firm ever retain an honest expert witness?

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract Suppose that expert witnesses appearing in litigation are, generically, either honest in their assessment of a fact situation or are advocates who testify in favour of their retaining party, regardless of new information. The type of a witness is known to law firms, who engage with them repeatedly, but not to courts.

Kadison -Singer algebras with applications to von Neumann algebras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
I develop the theory of Kadison-Singer algebras, introduced recently by Ge and Yuan. I prove basic structure theorems, construct several new examples and explore connections to other areas of operator algebras. In chapter 1, I survey those aspects of the

ZEONS, LATTICES OF PARTITIONS, AND FREE PROBABILITY

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceCentral to the theory of free probability is the notion of summing multiplicative functionals on the lattice of non-crossing partitions. In this paper, a graph-theoretic perspective of partitions is investigated in which independent

Neural Local Inter‐reflection Modeling for Garment Fold Rendering

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Realistic garment rendering requires simulating complex multi‐bounce light paths within intricate fold geometries. In these regions, conventional path tracing is computationally expensive as light becomes trapped, necessitating high bounce counts for convergence.

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...

Survey on Visualization of Information Diffusion over Networks

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Information Diffusion (ID) describes how a value (e.g., a pathogen, a rumor, a packet) spreads through an underlying “medium” network of elements (e.g., a social or computer network). Understanding the information diffusion process is essential to predicting trends, controlling misinformation, and enhancing decision‐making as well as ...

Reducing the replication time for structural estimations: A successful replication of “An Anatomy of International Trade” using GPU computing

open access: yesEconomic 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

open access: yesThe 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.
