Using SEC municipal advisor filings, we show that the number of operating advisors has decreased over time. We document that withdrawals—either exits, reorganizations, or mergers—are concentrated among smaller firms and ...

Cointegrating Polynomial Regressions With Power Law Trends
ABSTRACT The common practice in cointegrating polynomial regressions (CPRs) often confines nonlinearities in the variable of interest to stochastic trends, thereby overlooking the possibility that they may be caused by deterministic components. As an extension, we propose univariate and multivariate CPRs that incorporate power law deterministic trends.

Soaking well‐known composite electrodes (TiS2 and LiFePO4) into water‐in‐salt electrolyte is far from neutral since it can influence the cycling performance of water‐in‐salt electrolyte. Based on an in‐depth bulk‐to‐surface investigation, we find different surface chemistry during the soaking process, showing that degradation can occur before any ...
