Scientists Create Open Dataset for Studying Concentration
A team of Russian researchers, including scientists from HSE University–St Petersburg, has developed the first open multimodal dataset containing recordings of brain activity, heart function, and video observations to help researchers understand what happens in the human brain during deep concentration. In the future, the dataset could accelerate the development of neural interfaces, rehabilitation technologies, and AI systems. The article has been published in Scientific Data.

‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders
Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

The rise of collateral-based finance under state capitalism in Russia

Post-Communist Economies. 2021.
Abramov A., Viktorov I.

The article examines emerging financial capitalism in Russia and its recent developments, the rise of collateralised finance and trading in repo markets. The main conclusion is that a combination of sophisticated speculative practices with a strong state presence in financial markets is a distinctive feature of Russia after 2008. The decoupling of the financial system from the credit supply to the real sector is still continuing after the collapse of Communism. The role of the capital markets is restricted to short-term liquidity management in money markets, which rose after 2011 due to an increased provision of state liquidity. The existence of a large monetary overhang accumulated within the Russian banking system and its interconnectedness with collateralised markets are discussed. The development stages of the repo markets and the main collateral types are considered in relation to the expansion of the state liquidity supply. This study provides an additional perspective within the ongoing debate on contemporary state capitalism in emerging markets.

This paper examines the relationship between opacity and frequency dependence of systematic risk (β), estimated over different horizons using Wavelet Transform, for small and large firms.

Arbitrage with financial constraints and market power
Fardeau V., Journal of Economic Theory 2024 Vol. 217 Article 105825
I study how (VaR-based) financial constraints affect liquidity and welfare under different structures of the arbitrage industry. When capital is dispersed across competitive arbitrageurs, financial constraints may impair their ability to provide liquidity, lowering other investors' welfare. However, when capital is concentrated among arbitrageurs with market power, introducing constraints can make everyone better off and ...

New evidence on the impact of implicit trading costs on asset prices in the Russian stock market
Teplova T., Gurov S., Applied Economics 2022 Vol. 54 No. 51 P. 5943–5955
We perform a comprehensive study of different illiquidity effects in the relatively illiquid Russian stock market. Over the period 2010–2020, we apply cross-sectional and time-series regressions using two low-frequency illiquidity proxies: the Amihud ratio and the invariance-implied ratio. The evidence suggests that implicit trading costs influence only the returns of small-capitalization stocks or low size ...

Nonlinear intraday trading invariance in the Russian stock market
Teplova T., Gurov S., Annals of Operations Research 2025 Vol. 352 P. 441–469
Using high-frequency transaction-level data for liquid Russian stocks, we empirically reveal a joint nonlinear relationship between the average trade size, log-return variance per transaction, trading volume, and the asset price level described by the Intraday Trading Invariance hypothesis. The relationship is also confirmed during stock market crashes. We show that the invariance principle explains a ...
