### Finance

- __[Partial-Information Markets & Divergent Beliefs](http://arxiv.org/abs/2511.01486v1)__: Shows how a mathematical model explains why prices and trader biases converge as traders get more information, and gives the best way to combine expert opinions to hunt for arbitrage.

### Miscellaneous

- __[Here are some shorter title options (no numbering): - Excess Growth - Excess Rate - Growth Excess - Surplus Growth - Overgrowth - Growth Surplus Recommended: Excess Growth (keeps meaning but is more concise).](http://arxiv.org/abs/2510.25740v1)__: - Excess Growth - Excess Rate - Growth Excess - Surplus Growth - Overgrowth - Growth Surplus Recommended: Excess Growth (keeps meaning but is more concise).: The paper proves that a central portfolio metric—the excess growth rate—can be exactly described using basic information‑theory ideas and a few natural axioms. In short, it shows that the extra growth a portfolio achieves is essentially an information quantity, so portfolio performance can be understood like information gain.
