Statistical properties of stock order books: empirical results and models [PDF]
Quantitative Finance 2 251-256 (2002)., 2002 We investigate several statistical properties of the order book of three liquid stocks of the Paris Bourse. The results are to a large degree independent of the stock studied. The most interesting features concern (i) the statistics of incoming limit order prices, which follows a power-law around the current price with a diverging mean; and (ii) the ...

Altruism in death: Attitudes to body and organ donation in Australian students
Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 27-46, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Health education, research, and training rely on the altruistic act of body donation for the supply of cadavers. Organ transplantation and research rely on donated organs. Supply of both is limited, with further restrictions in Australia due to requirements for a next‐of‐kin agreement to donation, irrespective of the deceased's pre‐death ...

Deep Stochastic Optimization in Finance [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 This paper outlines, and through stylized examples evaluates a novel and highly effective computational technique in quantitative finance. Empirical Risk Minimization (ERM) and neural networks are key to this approach. Powerful open source optimization libraries allow for efficient implementations of this algorithm making it viable in high-dimensional ...

Epistemic Limits of Empirical Finance: Causal Reductionism and Self-Reference [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The clarion call for causal reduction in the study of capital markets is intensifying. However, in self-referencing and open systems such as capital markets, the idea of unidirectional causation (if applicable) may be limiting at best, and unstable or fallacious at worst.

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

Nano‐Topography Enhanced Topological‐Cell‐Analysis in Radiation‐Therapy
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Radiotherapy, a treatment that implies exposition of cells to radiation, offers promise to treat cancer. Here, it is hypothesized that the nanoscale details of a scaffold can amplify the response of cells to radiation, measured through topological variables, providing ways to assess the efficacy of Radiotherapy treatment.
