Current Situation, Problems and Future Prospect in Innovative Development of Russian Enterprises
Being in the economic transition, Russia is abandoning raw material economy and going on the path of innovative economic development. Against the background of economic transition, this article studies the current situation in innovative development of Russian enterprises both from longitudinal and horizontal aspects, thus further analyze the reasons from multiple perspectives. It is believed in this article that enterprises still remain as the driving force in Russian innovative development while the macro-policies carried out by government play a certain role in the innovation of Russian enterprises but is yet to fully inspire enterprises’ initiative in innovative development
A Joint Foreign Currency Risk Management Approach for Sovereign Assets and Liabilities
An asset and liability management framework for managing
risks arising from sovereign foreign exchange obligations
requires a joint analysis of (i) the external financial liabilities
resulting from a country’s sovereign debt and (ii) the foreign
exchange assets of its central bank. Governments often issue
sizable amounts of debt denominated in foreign currencies,
subjecting their fiscal positions to foreign exchange volatilities.
Prudent management of a sovereign’s foreign exchange
position under an asset and liability management framework
enables governments to mitigate risks at the lowest
possible cost, hence increasing resilience to external shocks.
Based on the challenges associated with the implementation
of an asset and liability management framework, this study
recommends a practical approach that includes analysis of
the foreign exchange positions of central bank reserves and
central government debt portfolios and optimization of
the net position. The proposed model is tested, using the
foreign exchange reserve and external debt data of seven
countries (Albania, Ghana, FYR Macedonia, South Africa,
the Republic of Korea, Tunisia, and Uruguay). The paper
employs quantitative methods to explore the impact of an
overarching asset and liability management strategy and
integrated approach on the efficient management of foreign
exchange risk. It provides policy recommendations on ways
to minimize the risk of foreign exchange mismatches and
increase the return on foreign exchange reserves

Multifunctional Lateral Transition-Metal Disulfides Heterojunctions
The intrinsic spin-dependent transport properties of two types of lateral
VS2|MoS2 heterojunctions are systematically investigated using first-principles
calculations, and their various nanodevices with novel properties are designed.
The lateral VS2|MoS2 heterojunction diodes show a perfect rectifying effect and
are promising for the applications of Schottky diodes. A large
spin-polarization ratio is observed for the A-type device and pure
spin-mediated current is then realized. The gate voltage significantly tunes
the current and rectification ratio of their field-effect transistors (FETs).
In addition, they all have sensitive photoresponse to blue light, and could be
used as photodetector and photovoltaic device. Moreover, they generate the
effective thermally-driven current when a temperature gratitude appears between
the two terminals, suggesting them as potential thermoelectric materials.
Hence, the lateral VS2|MoS2 heterojunctions show a multifunctional nature and
have various potential applications in spintronics, optoelectronics, and spin
caloritronics
Higher-order Topological and Nodal Superconductors MS (M = Nb and Ta) Transition-metal Sulfides
Intrinsic topological superconducting materials are exotic and vital to
develop the next-generation topological superconducting devices, topological
quantum calculations, and quantum information technologies. Here, we predict
the topological and nodal superconductivity of MS (M = Nb and Ta)
transition-metal sulfides by using the density functional theory for
superconductors combining with the symmetry indicators. We reveal their
higher-order topology nature with an index of Z4 = 2. These materials have a
higher Tc than the Nb or Ta metal superconductors due to their flat-band and
strong electron-phonon coupling nature. Electron doping and lighter isotopes
can effectively enhance the Tc. Our findings show that the MS (M = Nb and Ta)
systems can be new platforms to study exotic physics in the higher-order
topological superconductors, and provide a theoretical support to utilize them
as the topological superconducting devices in the field of advanced topological
quantum calculations and information technologies.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
