We distinguish "personal unfairness",
-- the view that one’s own economic situation is unfair,
from "social unfairness",
-- the view that the economic situation of others in society is unfair.
Uncertainties associated with the transition to a globalized knowledge economy heighten people’s feelings of personal unfairness
Feelings of personal unfairness increase support for the "populist right"
and feelings about social unfairn…

The life and times of dark matter haloes: what will I be when I grow up?
Are the most massive objects in the Universe today the direct descendants of the most massive objects at higher redshift? We address this question by tracing the evolutionary histories of haloes in the MultiDark Planck2 simulation. By following the 100 most massive halos at $z = 0$ across cosmic time, we find that only 40\% of them were among the largest 100 halos at $z = 1$. This suggests that many of today's most massive clusters were not the most dominant structures at earlier times, while s…

Efficient Probabilistic Parity Shaping for Irregular Repeat-Accumulate LDPC Codes
Algorithms are presented that efficiently shape the parity bits of systematic irregular repeat-accumulate (IRA) low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes by following the sequential encoding order of the accumulator. Simulations over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels with on-off keying show a gain of up to 0.9 dB over uniform signaling.

A notion of quasi-convex subgroups in acylindrically hyperbolic groups
In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off cusped spaces. We also prove that this notion of quasiconvexity is preserved under sufficiently long Dehn filling. As an application, we generalize a theorem of Groves-Manning on groups acting on $\operatorname{CAT}(0)$ cube complexes.

Federal Reserve Governor
Lisa Cook's lawyer
has filed a lawsuit against Trump
following his unprecedented attempt to fire her on Monday.
Many experts fear that the president's latest action could spell the end of the Fed's independence.
