The Decentralized Financial Crisis - In this paper authors explore how design weaknesses and price fluctuations in DeFi protocols could lead to a DeFi crisis.
Liquidations: DeFi on a Knife-edge- In order to protect protocols from suffering losses, undercollateralized positions can be liquidated. In this paper, authors present empirical analysis of liquidations on protocols for loanable funds (PLFs).
Measuring Asset Composability as a Proxy for DeFi Integration - Authors seek to understand the degree to which this practice may contribute to financial integration on Ethereum by examining transactions in 'composed' derivatives for the assets DAI, USDC, USDT, ETH and tokenized BTC for the full set of 344.8 million Ethereum transactions computed in 2020.
Dynamic Curves for Decentralized Autonomous Cryptocurrency Exchanges - Authors propose in this work a new approach to constructing the AMM by proposing the idea of dynamic curves.

The Eye of Horus: Spotting and Analyzing Attacks on Ethereum Smart Contracts -Investigation shows that the number of attacks did not necessarily decrease over the past few years, but for some vulnerabilities remained constant.
A chronological and (hopefully) complete list of reentrancy attacks to date.
Analysis of Bitcoin Vulnerability to Bribery Attacks Launched Through Large Transactions - In this paper, authors design a novel bribery attack and show that this guarantee can be hugely undermined.

Low-cost attacks on Ethereum 2.0 by sub-1/3 stakeholders - Authors outline two dishonest strategies that can be cheaply executed on the Ethereum 2.0 beacon chain, even by validators holding less than one-third of the total stake: malicious chain reorganizations ("reorgs") and finality delays.
An approach to detect Denial of Service Vulnerability in Ethereum Smart Contracts - In this paper, authors propose a framework that combines static and dynamic analysis to detect DoS due to an unexpected revert in ETH Smart Contracts.
