Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 595-619, July 2026.ABSTRACT We introduce a dynamic and stochastic interbank model with an endogenous notion of distress contagion, arising from rational worries about future defaults and ensuing losses. This entails a mark‐to‐market valuation adjustment for interbank claims, leading to a forward‐backward approach to the equilibrium dynamics whereby future default ...

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 134-152, July 2026.ABSTRACT Determinism is (roughly) the thesis that the past determines the future. But efforts to define it precisely have exposed deep methodological disagreements. Standard possible‐worlds formulations of determinism presuppose an “agreement” relation between worlds, but this relation can be understood in multiple ways, none of which is particularly ...

On the theories classified by an étendue
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract We give a model‐theoretic characterisation of the geometric theories classified by étendues—the ‘locally localic’ topoi. They are the theories where each model is determined, syntactically and semantically, by any witness of a fixed collection of formulae.

Identifiability of points and rigidity of hypergraphs under algebraic constraints
Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 114, Issue 1, July 2026.Abstract The identifiability problem arises naturally in a number of contexts in mathematics and computer science. Specific instances include local or global rigidity of graphs and unique completability of partially‐filled tensors subject to rank conditions.

Least reflexive points of relations [PDF]
, 2008 Assume a partially ordered set (S,≤) and a relation R on S. We consider various sets of conditions in order to determine whether they ensure the existence of a least reflexive point, that is, a least x such that xRx.

Noûs, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 136-160, March 2026.Abstract It is well‐recognized in the sciences that a multitude of nonequivalent models are used by researchers to fulfill a range of goals, even for the same target system, a result known broadly as model pluralism. The possibility of the same form of pluralism occurring in logic, however, has not been adequately considered.

Existence and definability of states of the world [PDF]
, 2005 We present here a notion of state of the world general enough to embrace most circular phenomena in economics and game theory. We prove that it obtains by unfolding beliefs only if the process of belief generation has a fixed point. Otherwise, we are led

Simple groups with strong fixed‐point properties
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract We exhibit finitely generated torsion‐free groups for which any action on any finite‐dimensional CW‐complex with finite Betti numbers has a global fixed point.

Plank theorems and their applications: A survey
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Plank problems concern the covering of convex bodies by planks in Euclidean space and are related to famous open problems in convex geometry. In this survey, we introduce plank problems and present surprising applications of plank theorems in various areas of mathematics.

Incentives and Institutions: Essays in Mechanism Design and Game Theory with Applications [PDF]
, 2009 In the first part of this dissertation we study the problem of designing desirable mechanisms for economic environments with different types of informational and consumption externalities.
