Beneath the surface of green energy—which most people associate with solar panels, electric vehicles, and reduced CO2 emissions—lies a complex web of geopolitical interests, international inequality, and resource constraints. Researchers from the Laboratory for Science and Technology Studies (LST) at the HSE ISSEK Foresight Centre have published a series of articles in leading international journals on hidden and overt conflicts surrounding critically important metals and minerals, as well as related processes in the energy sector.
Researchers at the Cognitive Health and Intelligence Centre at the HSE Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have discovered how bilingual individuals process emotional words in their native (first) and non-native (second) languages. It was found that the link between word meaning and bodily sensations is weaker in a second language than in a first language. However, the more a person is immersed in a language environment, the smaller this difference becomes. The article has been published in Language, Cognition and Neuroscience.
The HSE Centre for Financial Research and Data Analytics combines fundamental and applied work, including in areas unique to Russia such as the connection between sentiment in the media and social networks and financial markets. The HSE News Service spoke with the centre’s director, Professor Tamara Teplova, about its work.

Рассматривается начально-краевая задача для системы уравнений детерминированной игры среднего поля. Система состоит из уравнения типа Гамильтона–Якоби для функции цены и кинетического уравнения для распределения положений игроков. Предлагается определение обобщенного решения системы, основанное на понятии минимаксного решения уравнения типа Гамильтона–Якоби. Предложенный в работе метод доказательства существования обобщенного решения системы основан на исследовании равновесия по Нэшу в игре бесконечного ...

Recently developed toy models for the mean-field games of corruption and
botnet defence in cyber-security with three or four states of agents are extended to a
more general mean-field-game model with 2d states, d ∈ N. In order to tackle new
technical difficulties arising from a larger state-space we introduce new asymptotic
regimes, namely small discount and small interaction ...
