Derivation of nociceptive sensory neurons from hiPSCs with early patterning and temporally controlled NEUROG2 overexpression.
Despite development of protocols to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), those used to produce sensory neurons remain difficult to replicate and result in heterogenous populations. There is a growing clinical...
Automatic Mapping of Physical Urban Problems Using Remotely Sensed Imagery
Nikolaos Lempesis
Jan 01, 2023
While big cities are expected to exercise cost-effective, evidence-based planning, many are under reactive management, facing simultaneous problems and limited resources. This project develops a proof-of-concept workflow for the...
A Framework to Identify Influences of Environmental Legislation on Corporate Green Intellectual Capital, Innovation, and Environmental Performance
The aim of this paper is to examine the Porter hypothesis which defines that environmental regulations, under certain circumstances, could have positive effects on corporate environmental and economic performance. The majority...

Top quark production at the Tevatron at NNLO.
We present results for top quark production at the Tevatron including next-to-nextto- leading order (NNLO) soft-gluon corrections. We show the stability of the cross section with respect to kinematics choice and scale when the...
Pension scheme redesign and wealth redistribution between the members and sponsor
The redesign of defined benefit pension schemes usually results in a substantial redistribution of wealth between age cohorts of members, pensioners, and the sponsor. This is the first study to quantify the redistributive...
Should Investors Include Bitcoin in Their Portfolios? A Portfolio Theory Approach
Many papers in recent years have examined the benefits of adding alternative assets to traditional portfolios containing stocks and bonds. Bitcoin has emerged as a new alternative investment for investors which has attracted...
Charged Higgs production with a top quark at the LHC.
Nikolaos Kidonakis
Feb 08, 2010
I discuss charged Higgs production via the process bg ! tH− at the LHC. I show that the cross section is dominated by soft-gluon corrections and I provide results for its dependence on the charged Higgs mass and on the scale...
Taxation, Pension Schemes and Stakeholder Wealth
Although tax relief on pensions is a controversial area of government expenditure, this is the first study of the tax effects for a real world defined benefit pension scheme. First, we estimate the tax and national insurance...
Forecasts combinations for intermittent demand
Intermittent demand is characterised by infrequent demand arrivals, where many periods have zero demand, coupled with varied demand sizes. The dual source of variation renders forecasting for intermittent demand a very...
Portfolio management with cryptocurrencies:
This paper contributes to the literature on cryptocurrencies, portfolio management and estimation risk by comparing the performance of naïve diversification, Markowitz diversification and the advanced Black-Litterman model with...

Document Management Systems (DMS) are used for decades to store large amounts of information in textual form. Their technology paradigm is based on storing vast quantities of textual information enriched with metadata to support...
Nominal rigidities equilibria in a non-Ricardian economy
Nikolaos Kokonas
Dec 01, 2016
I consider a cash-in-advance economy with nominal price rigidities. Nominal interest rates are the cost of liquidity and fiscal policy sets nominal transfers that affect the distribution of wealth. Under a fiscal policy...

Although tax relief on pensions is a controversial area of government expenditure, this is the first study of the tax effects for a real world defined benefit pension scheme. First, we estimate the tax and national insurance...
Next-to-next-to-leading order soft and virtual corrections for QCD, Higgs and SUSY processes.
Nikolaos Kidonakis
Feb 08, 2010
I review recent advances in the calculation of higher-order soft-gluon corrections for a variety of QCD, Higgs, and SUSY processes in hadron colliders. A unified approach and master formulas for next-to-next-to-leading order...

I consider a cash-in-advance economy with nominal price rigidities. Nominal interest rates are the cost of liquidity and fiscal policy sets nominal transfers that affect the distribution of wealth. Under a fiscal policy...
Public acceptability of population-level interventions to reduce alcohol consumption
Public acceptability influences policy action, but the most acceptable policies are not always the most effective. This discrete choice experiment provides a novel investigation of the acceptability of different interventions to...
Two loop and N loop eikonal vertex corrections.
Nikolaos Kidonakis
Feb 15, 2010
I present calculations of two-loop vertex corrections with massive and massless partons in the eikonal approximation. I show that the n-loop result for the UV poles can be given in terms of the one-loop calculation.
Harmful Diversification
Alternative assets have become as important as equities and fixed income in the
portfolios of major investors, and so their diversification properties are also
important. However, adding five alternative assets (real...
Optimal vs Naïve Diversification in Cryptocurrencies
This paper contributes to the literature on cryptocurrencies by examining the performance of naïve (1/N) and optimal (Markowitz) diversification in a portfolio of four popular cryptocurrencies. We employ weekly data with weekly...
When marketing and manufacturing departments integrate
Although the effect of marketing-manufacturing integration on new product development (NPD) performance has been extensively studied, the question about how this integration is affected during the different stages of NPD remains...
