Robust Tests of Forecast Accuracy for Factor‐Augmented Regressions With an Application to the Novel EA‐MD‐QD Dataset

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present four novel tests of equal predictive accuracy and encompassing á Pitarakis (2023, 2025) for factor‐augmented regressions. Factors are estimated using cross‐section averages (CAs) of grouped series and our theoretical findings are empirically relevant: asymptotic normality, robustness to an overspecification of the number of factors,

Bayesian Model Averaging in Causal Instrumental Variable Models

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Instrumental variables are a popular tool to infer causal effects under unobserved confounding, but choosing suitable instruments is challenging in practice. We propose gIVBMA, a Bayesian model averaging procedure that addresses this challenge by averaging across different sets of instrumental variables and covariates in a structural equation ...

Colourings of Uniform Group Divisible Designs and Maximum Packings

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Designs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A weak c $c$‐colouring of a design is an assignment of colours to its points from a set of c $c$ available colours, such that there are no monochromatic blocks. A colouring of a design is block‐equitable, if for each block, the number of points coloured with any available pair of colours differ by at most one.

Halin's Grid Theorem for Digraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Halin showed that every thick end of every graph contains an infinite grid. We extend Halin's theorem to digraphs. More precisely, we show that for every infinite family ℛ ${\rm{ {\mathcal R} }}$ of disjoint equivalent out‐rays there is a grid whose vertical rays are contained in ℛ ${\rm{ {\mathcal R} }}$.

Lower Bounds for Maximum Weight Bisections of Weighted Triangle‐Free Subcubic Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A bisection of a graph is a cut in which the number of vertices in the two parts of the cut differ by at most 1. In this paper, we consider maximum weight bisections of edge‐weighted triangle‐free subcubic graphs and show that every weighted triangle‐free subcubic graph G = ( V , E , w ) $G=(V,E,w)$ has a bisection with weight at least θ ⋅ w (

Orientations of Graphs With at Most One Directed Path Between Every Pair of Vertices

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given a graph G $G$, we say that an orientation D $D$ of G $G$ is a KT orientation if, for all u , v ∈ V ( D ) $u,v\in V(D)$, there is at most one directed path (in any direction) between u $u$ and v $v$. Graphs that admit such orientations have been used to construct graphs with large chromatic number and small clique number that served as ...

Stable Cuts, NAC‐Colourings and Flexible Realisations of Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A (2‐dimensional) realisation of a graph G $G$ is a pair ( G , p ) $(G,p)$, where p $p$ maps the vertices of G $G$ to R 2 ${{\mathbb{R}}}^{2}$. A realisation is flexible if it can be continuously deformed while keeping the edge lengths fixed, and rigid otherwise.

A Min–Max Relation on Dicuts and Dijoins in Weighted Chordal Digraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In a digraph, a dicut is a cut where all the arcs cross in one direction. A dijoin is a subset of arcs that intersects every dicut. Edmonds and Giles conjectured that in a weighted digraph, the minimum weight of a dicut is equal to the maximum size of a packing of dijoins. This has been disproved. However, the unweighted version conjectured by
