Effects of the new resolution regime in European banking

Financial stability is a pillar of the financial market well-functioning. After the last financial crisis, policymakers harmonised European regulation in banking. The European Banking Union revised the resolution of failing banks. I make use of a natural experiment, made possible by the introduction of the bail-in regulation, to analyse the effects of this revision on the banking system. The analysis concerns the changes in funding strategies of banks, the holdings of bonds issued by banks, a...

Ricci curvature, graphs and Coxeter groups

In the last decades there has been a research trend in combinatorics to translate notions of Riemannian geometry in graph theory (see for example [12], [7], [34],[23],[13],[5],[4],[3],[32],[11],[31],[29],[8],[9],[33],[19] ). In [41] a definition of Ricci curvature of graphs was formulated by Schmuckenschläger as an attempt to define a concept of curvature in the context of discrete Markov chains similar to the one that Bakry and Emery [2] defined for probability spaces. This notion of Ricci c...

Fattori abilitanti per la trasformazione digitale nella PA: antecedenti teorici e applicazioni al contesto italiano

Il concetto di Trasformazione Digitale già nella sua locuzione annuncia un cambiamento che occorre nelle imprese, nelle pubbliche amministrazioni e in qualsiasi sfaccettatura del mondo così come lo conosciamo. I confini della trasformazione in corso in queste organizzazioni si intrecciano e si confondono inesorabilmente con la trasformazione delle nostre vite, di cittadini, di utenti, di membri della comunità e di persone. Le soluzioni e i percorsi intrapresi grazie alla Trasformazione Digita...

The ABC strikes back: finding from surgical field

Because of the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and new syndromes together with technological advancement in enhancing higher value of health care, there is a growing interest in cost reduction in the healthcare field. Cost accounting information has become especially important as a result of the healthcare value theory, which advocates for the delivery of high-value healthcare services at a lower cost. As a result, healthcare organizations are increasingly interested in more sophisticat...

Optimizing machine learning: enhancing interpretability and performance through mathematical optimization

Classification systems based on Machine Learning algorithms are often used to support decision-making in real-world applications such as healthcare (Babic et al., 2021), credit approval (Silva et al., 2022; Kozodoi et al., 2022; Bastos and Matos, 2022; Dumitrescu et al., 2022), or criminal justice (Ridgeway, 2013). These systems often act as black-boxes that lack interpretability. This opacity hinders our ability to comprehend the decisionmaking processes within these systems, raising concern...

Inflammatory signals in inflammatory bowel diseases = Segnali infiammatori nelle malattie infiammatorie intestinali

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract with a multifactorial pathophysiology. Accumulating evidence suggests that both Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), the two major IBD, arise because of the action of multiple environmental and genetic factors, which ultimately promote an excessive immune response against component of the luminal flora [1, 2]. Defects in counter-regulatory mechanisms are also documentable in inflame...
