A new equilibrium: COVID-19 lockdowns and WFH persistence
This paper documents a robust link between COVID-19 lockdowns and the uptake and persistence of working from home (WFH) practices. Exploiting rich longitudinal data, we use a difference-in-differences strategy to compare office workers in three heavily locked-down Australian states to similar workers in less affected states. Locked-down workers sustain 43% higher WFH levels through 2023 - 0.5 days per week - with a monotonic dose-response relationship. Persistence is driven by adjustments on bo…

Type-Driven Prompt Programming: From Typed Interfaces to a Calculus of Constraints
Prompt programming treats large language model prompts as software components with typed interfaces. Based on a literature survey of 15 recent works from 2023 to 2025, we observe a consistent trend: type systems are central to emerging prompt programming frameworks. However, there are gaps in constraint expressiveness and in supporting algorithms. To address these issues, we introduce the notion of Lambda Prompt, a dependently typed calculus with probabilistic refinements for syntactic and sema…

The covering radius of Butson Hadamard codes for the homogeneous metric
Butson matrices are complex Hadamard matrices with entries in the complex roots of unity of given order. There is an interesting code in phase space related to this matrix (Armario et al. 2023). We study the covering radius of Butson Hadamard codes for the homogeneous metric, a metric defined uniquely, up to scaling, for a commutative ring alphabet that is Quasi Frobenius. An upper bound is derived by an orthogonal array argument. A lower bound relies on the existence of bent sequences in the s…

In $2022$, this interval was subsequently improved to $[n, 8n]$ by the first author and O. Trifonov. The first author then improved this bound to $[n, 9n]$ in $2023$.
