We provide a theory of residual deterrence that accounts for the incentives of both enforcement officials and potential offenders.

Conventional momentum strategies exhibit substantial time-varying exposures to the Fama and French factors. We show that these exposures can be reduced by ranking stocks on residual stock returns instead of total returns. As a consequence, residual momentum earns risk-adjusted profits that are about twice as large as those associated with total return ...

Residual Equisingularity [PDF]
Let V V be a complex analytic set and Sg V \operatorname {Sg} V the singular set of V V be in codimension one; then the set of points of Sg V \operatorname {Sg} V for which V V is not residually equisingular ...
