At HSE University–St Petersburg, Experts Discuss How AI Changes Tourist Routes and Cultural Heritage
Neural networks are no longer simple travel assistants; now they decide what to include on the route and what to skip. Artificial intelligence changes how people perceive a place and shapes the image of tourist centres. At the II International Scientific and Practical Conference ’Information Technologies in the Preservation and Promotion of Cultural Heritage,’ researchers discussed who controls algorithmic solutions and in what ways, and whether authentic traditions get lost in them.

Road Injuries Leading Cause of Death Among Men Aged 10 to 39
Worldwide, road injuries are the leading cause of death among males aged 10–39. An international team of researchers reached this conclusion as part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023, analysing data from 204 countries between 1990 and 2023. Their findings have been published in The Lancet Public Health, with HSE University Professor Vasily Vlassov listed among the collaborators.

Comparing SSD-Efficient Portfolios with a Skewed Reference Distribution

Mathematics. 2023. Vol. 11. No. 1. Article 50.
Cesarone F., Cesetti R., Orlando G., Martino M. L., Ricci J. M.

Portfolio selection models based on second-order stochastic dominance (SSD) have the advantage of providing portfolios that reflect the behavior of risk-averse investors without the need to specify the utility function. Several scholars apply SSD conditions with respect to a reference distribution, typically that of the market index, to find its dominant SSD portfolio. However, since the reference distribution could strongly influence asset allocation, in this article, we compare two SSD-based portfolio selection strategies with a reshaping of the reference distribution in terms of its skewness and, consequently, its variance. Through an extensive empirical analysis based on multiasset investment universes, we empirically show that the SSD portfolios dominating the new skewed benchmark index generally perform better.

Wave scattering by a sloping beach of an arbitrary angle. Revisited: regular solution
Mishuris G., Meylan M. H., Pelinovsky E., Journal of Fluid Mechanics 2026 Vol. 1045 Article A4
In this paper, we revisit the classic problem of a wave field on a sloping beach of an arbitrary angle and propose a general approach that allows the computation of regular solutions of the problem regardless of the angle. We use the Mellin-transform technique, reducing the problem to singular integral equations with fixed-point singularities of ...

Distressed firms and loan guarantee programmes during the COVID-19 crisis
Bessonova E., Popova S., Fedulova M., Emerging Markets Review 2026 Vol. 75 Article 101564
To mitigate the shocks caused by the pandemic-related restrictions, many governments implemented extensive support measures for companies facing sharp declines in revenues. In Russia, loan guarantee programmes allowed many firms to apply for loans during the pandemic. As a result, the number of small loans soared. Participation in the loan guarantee programmes helped firms in ...

This article concerns the study of modulational instability in the rotated-modified Gardner–Whitham (rmGW) equation. This model incorporates both quadratic and cubic nonlinearities, similarly to the Gardner equation, while also retaining the fully dispersive character of the Whitham equation together with a large-scale dispersive term analogous to that in the Ostrovsky equation. Using a classical multiple-scale asymptotic expansion, we ...

The cryptocurrency market has been considered until recently a market for private, non-portfolio investors, and the research focus has been on volatility. However, gradual institutionalization and creation of ETFs have highlighted new characteristics, including the asymmetry of trade behavior. Our research aims to analyze the relationships between asymmetric risk indicators and the returns of portfolios ...

The effect of induced flow on the water wave skewness
Slunyaev A., Kokorina A., Physics of Fluids 2025 Vol. 37 No. 8 Article 087192
Nonlinear wave-induced perturbations are discussed within the framework of the second-order theory. Due to the slow attenuation of the long perturbations with depth, they modulate motions beneath surface waves down to the bottom and can strongly affect the wave statistics. The disturbance which corresponds to the second harmonic, at a sufficient depth, inverses the phase, thereby ...

Uncertainty of Efficient Frontier in Portfolio Optimization

Portfolio optimization is a large area of investigation both in theoretical and practical setting since the seminal work by Markowitz where a mean-variance model was introduced. From optimization point of view, the problem of optimal portfolio in mean-variance setting can be formulated as convex quadratic optimization under uncertainty. In practice one needs to estimate parameters ...

Impact of error in parameter estimations on large scale portfolio optimization
Kalyagin V. A., Slashchinin S., Springer Optimization and Its Applications 2019 Vol. 145 P. 151–184
Mathematical programming is often concerned with determining the optimum of some real-world objective. One of the main questions in this field is the way of addressing uncertainty. Whereas deterministic optimization models are formulated with known parameters, real life issues almost invariably include uncertain parameters which are unknown at the time when a decision should be ...

Do portfolio investors need to consider the asymmetry of returns on the Russian stock market?

This paper, following (Ghalanos, 2012), uses the simple method of embedding skewness in asset allocation based on the Taylor expansion of the investor utility function up to the third term and maximizing it by portfolio weights. This approach also enables us to consider investor risk aversion. Time-dependent multivariate asset moments are obtained via the GO-GARCH ...
