Uspol, genocide
In case you're wondering whether "political violence" is escalating in the U.S.A. right now, of *course* it is as we move into an era of concentration campus and domestic military deployments. But both domestic genocides and purges as well as political violence targeted at individual prominent figures has been a *constant* throughout American history, from gun duels fought between political rivals to massacres of Native Americans in order to steal their land, to pogroms against Catholics, to literal wars on local Black success and political participation, all dating back before the American Revolution to the beginning of colonization. Thanks to Wikipedia, here's a *small sampling* where I attempted to whittle things down to about one event per decade before recent times.

The Impact of Sanctions on decentralised Privacy Tools: A Case Study of Tornado Cash
This paper investigates the impact of sanctions on Tornado Cash, a smart contract protocol designed to enhance transaction privacy. Following the U.S. Department of the Treasury's sanctions against Tornado Cash in August 2022, platform activity declined sharply. We document a significant and sustained reduction in transaction volume, user diversity, and overall protocol utilization after the sanctions were imposed. Our analysis draws on transaction data from three major blockchains: Ethereum, B…

The exploration of fundamental quantum phenomena, such as entanglement and Bell inequality violations$-$extensively studied in low-energy regimes$-$has recently extended to high-energy particle collisions. Experimentally, Bell inequality violations, which challenge Einstein's principle of local realism, were first observed in low-energy entangled photon systems by A. Aspect, J. F. Clauser, and A.

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…

Linearly involved Generalized Moreau Enhanced Model with Non-quadratic Smooth Convex Data Fidelity Functions
In this paper, we introduce an overall convex model incorporating a nonconvex regularizer. The proposed model is designed by extending the least squares term in the constrained LiGME model [Yata Yamagishi Yamada 2022] to fairly general smooth convex functions for flexible utilization of non-quadratic data fidelity functions. Under an overall convexity condition for the proposed model, we present sufficient conditions for the existence of a minimizer of the proposed model and an inner-loop free …

Ideology, institutions, and economic growth: panel evidence 1995 2022
Does it matter whether a government is "left wing" or "right wing" for economic growth?
