Counter Galois Onion: Improved encryption for Tor circuit traffic | Tor Project
Tor is upgrading its relay encryption algorithm for improved security. In upcoming releases, Arti and Tor will both support a new encryption algorithm called Counter Galois Onion (CGO). CGO prevents attackers from tampering with encrypted traffic, adds forward secrecy, and brings Tor's encryption up to modern standards.

Kolmogorov equations for stochastic Volterra processes with singular kernels
We associate backward and forward Kolmogorov equations to a class of fully nonlinear Stochastic Volterra Equations (SVEs) with convolution kernels $K$ that are singular at the origin. Working on a carefully chosen Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}_1$, we rigorously establish a link between solutions of SVEs and Markovian mild solutions of a Stochastic Partial Differential Equation (SPDE) of transport-type. Then, we obtain two novel Itô formulae for functionals of mild solutions and, as a byproduct, s…

📢 Looking forward to my return visit to Norwich and the @…, this time to give the Dame Janet Thornton lecture on Thursday 13th.
Register link (with reception afterwards 🍰, do come and say hello!):
➡️ #circadian clocks in #plantsci 🌿 and a bit on #OpenData infrastructure 💽, I'm re-using the notion of Arrival from Katherine Trebeck and Jeremy Williams' book, the #Economics of Arrival. Might this help us researchers to bridge the Knowledge-Action Gap (see below) ?

Vaccinating Now or Vaccinating Later: Separating Pull-Forward and Net Effects Using a Dynamic Regression Discontinuity Design
We study the impact of a novel COVID-19 vaccine mandate, targeting graduating high-school students, on first vaccine uptake. In 2021, the State Government of Western Australia (WA) required attendees at "Leavers" -- a large-scale state-supported graduation party held annually in November in a WA regional town -- to be vaccinated. Using administrative data that link date-of-birth (at the month level), school attendance, and first-dose vaccination records, we exploit the strict school-age laws in…
