Prompting the Market? A Large-Scale Meta-Analysis of GenAI in Finance NLP (2022-2025)
Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly reshaped financial NLP, enabling new tasks and driving a proliferation of datasets and diversification of data sources. Yet, this transformation has outpaced traditional surveys. In this paper, we present MetaGraph, a generalizable methodology for extracting knowledge graphs from scientific literature and analyzing them to obtain a structured, queryable view of research trends.

Improved Clifford operations in constant commutative depth
The commutative depth model allows gates that commute with each other to be performed in parallel. We show how to compute Clifford operations in constant commutative depth more efficiently than was previously known. Bravyi, Maslov, and Nam [Phys. Rev.

We show that the Prefix Sum problem can be computed in commutative depth 16 and size $O(n \log n)$, …

Enumerative kernelization is a recent and promising area sitting at the intersection of parameterized complexity and enumeration algorithms. Its study began with the paper of Creignou et al.

Separable convex optimization over indegree polytopes
We study egalitarian (acyclic) orientations of undirected graphs under indegree-based objectives, such as minimizing the $φ$-sum of indegrees for a strictly convex function $φ$, decreasing minimization (dec-min), and increasing maximization (inc-max). In the non-acyclic setting of Frank and Murota (2022), a single orientation simultaneously optimizes these three objectives, however, restricting to acyclic orientations confines us to the corners of the indegree polytope, where these fairness o…

Dihedral groups of square-free order are DCI-groups
A finite group $G$ is a called a DCI-group if any two isomorphic Cayley digraphs of $G$ are also isomorphic via an automorphism of $G$. If $G$ is a non-abelian generalised dihedral DCI-group, then Dobson, Muzychuk, and Spiga proved that $G$ must be a dihedral group of square-free order (Ars Math. Contemp., 2022). In this paper, we prove that the converse statement also holds, i.\,e., all dihedral groups of square-free order are DCI-groups.

Using panel regressions and advanced machine learning algorithms on data from European firms between 2016 and 2022, the analyses reveal a significant non-linear relationship. Specifically, CEP improves with BGD up to an optimal level of approximately 35 percent, beyond which further increases in BGD yield no additi…
