This article does not reveal the identity of individuals that were not broadly known beforehand. It only uses information that was in conscience made publicly available by the candidate authors and was accessible through standard internet searches at the time of data collection. To respect the data sharing and open data principles, we detail our data collection method, which should be sufficient to ensure...

The aim is to show how authorship attribution can be used to identify the style of each potential candidate text. We will use support- vector machines to train a linear Support Vector Machine to identify potential candidates for each type of text.

The study of the Q drops raises a number of specific challenges. It follows specific rules that most people would not use in another context. Structural brevity of the sentences prevents us from taking the sentence lengths as a clue of who wrote what. The overwhelming proportion of interrogative forms makes it difficult to reason on morpho-syntactic sequences. The elliptic style of theQ drops,...

The difficulties in data collection for a variety of individual and profiles, as well as the ubiquity of deleted content, not recoverable to us, forces us to adopt a a dual approach. We build two corpora: large corpus in which we include the larger number of candidates, whatever the number of samples available to us and the genre of said samples.controlled corpus. We removed...

QAnon is a social network that claims to have been hacked by a group of prominent politicians. This article presents a systematic analysis of the corpus of texts used to create the profile. The authors used a Locality-Sensitive Hashing algorithm to analyse the texts. They used a TextReuse package to analyse sentences and broken word bi-grams.

Because of their contested contents, many accounts have been deleted by the social media platforms. This raised many challenges for the corpus constitution, which had to rely on data collection realized before the deletion, or on difficulty searchable web archives. All sources do not have the same time-span, and were created at different dates, discussing potentially different news, a source of heterogeneity in training...

If the author of Qdrops is among our candidates, the results here seem to demonstrate the major role of Ron W. in the writing of the Qdrops, at least since the switch to 8chan. The peak of Paul F. in one of the two analyses could very well be revealing of a real participation, even a leading role for all the period before 8chan,...

Researchers have analysed 13 candidates for Q drops on 8chan. They found that the highest decision function is by far by Ron W. (Fig. 1) The most significant deviation from this concerns the first period of the QDrops, before the switch to 8chan, before Paul F. became the top candidate.

The authorship attribution techniques, also known as stylometry (Juola, 2008), are used to identify who might hide behind the pseudonym Q. Stylometry tries to spot the idiosyncratic properties of someone’s language, called idiolect (Coulthard, 2004) The authorship of Q is based on the use of functions words, punctuation, patterns of “parts-of-speech” (e.g. ‘Proper noun / Article’, ‘Article / common noun / verb’) (Bjork-Lund and...

QAnon supporters have been implicated in a variety of criminal incidents and violent events. The violence of the QAnon believers is not unprecedented nor unmatched on social networks. The singularity of this online group mostly resides in how much its theories have spread.

A series of social media posts signed under the pseudonym ‘Q’, started a movement known as QAnon. To identify the authors of these posts, serious challenges have to be addressed. The “Q drops” are very short texts, written in a way that constitute a sort of literary genre in itself. We conclude that two different individuals, Paul F. and Ron W., are the closest...

This section analyzes the local and global properties of stochastic equilibrium, highlighting its impact on macroeconomic variables such as price distortions, wages, and interest rates. The analysis concludes that volatility and uncertainty lower welfare, and that incorporating stochastic elements can lead to negative natural interest rates. The findings suggest the advantages of discrete over continuous time in macroeconomic modeling and offer insights into the...

This section compares the new concept of stochastic equilibrium with existing literature, highlighting differences between deterministic steady states, stochastic steady states, and ergodic means. The comparison underscores the dynamic nature of the new equilibrium and its improvement over previous disequilibrium models. Insights from continuous time models and their implications for applied research are also discussed.

This section constructs the stochastic equilibrium of the Calvo New Keynesian economy using Birkhoff’s ergodic theorem. The equilibrium is similar to its non-stochastic counterpart, but with expectation terms reflecting future non-linear functions of key economic variables. The Phillips curve and natural interest rate play a central role in defining the steady state, with further existence results in Section 8.

This section introduces stochastic equilibrium by leveraging ergodic theory and random dynamical systems. It covers key concepts like measure-preserving transformations, ergodicity, and mixing conditions, applying them to long-term economic behavior and stability. The section also explores the uniqueness of ergodic measures and their role in business cycle modeling.

This section revisits the Lucas critique, analyzing its interpretations and implications for modern New Keynesian economics. By correcting Calvo solutions, it challenges observational equivalence among Calvo, Rotemberg, and Lucas Phillips curves, emphasizing the need for robust macroeconomic models free from singularities and policy inconsistencies.

Interactive fiction is a way of storytelling where you, as the reader or player, get to make choices that affect how the story unfolds. By using a specific type of software, writers create these branching storylines and design different paths and outcomes based on the reader’s decisions. Depending on the software and the potential outcomes, writers don’t even need a huge amount of technical...
