In: Gupta, P and Verma, R K and Dar, A (2019) Electoral Cycles in Food Prices: Evidence from India. Working Paper. ISID.
Do prices of essential food commodities vary with the timing of elections? Using weekly retail price data of 16 food items between 1993 and 2012 in 28 cities across India, we �nd existence of a 'political price cycle' in onions and not in other commodities, con�rming a commonly held (but hitherto empirically untested) view that onion prices are an electorally salient issue. �ere is suggestive evidence that the opportunistic cycles are strongest when: (a) incumbent state governments are aligned with the center, (b) incumbent state governments win with large majorities, and (c) in periods when the market is unregulated. �e �ndings can be explained by the role of informal regulatory strategies such as collusion between incumbent governments and trading cartels, who exercise signi�cant in�uence in the market supply of onions.

New physics may contribute in the gluon-gluon fusion loop, the dominant Higgs boson production mechanism at the LHC, and manifest itself through deviations from the distributions predicted by the standard model. Combined spectra for the H -> gamma gamma, H -> ZZ, and H -> b (b) over bar decay channels and the inclusive Higgs boson production cross section are presented, based on proton-proton collision data recorded with the CMS detector at root s = 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). The transverse momentum spectrum is used to place limits on the Higgs boson couplings to the top, bottom, and charm quarks, as well as its direct coupling to the gluon field. No significant deviations from the standard model are observed in any differential distribution. The measured total cross section is 61.1 +/- 6.0 (stat) +/- 3.7 (syst) pb, and the precision of the measurement of the differential cross section of the Higgs boson transverse momentum is improved by about 15% with respect to the H -> gamma gamma channel alone.

The search targets the production of a Higgs boson via vector boson fusion. The data are found to be in agreement with the background contributions from standard model processes. An observed (expected) upper limit of 0.33(0.25), at 95% confidence level, is placed on the branching fraction of the Higgs boson decay to invisible particles, assuming standard model production rates and a Higgs boson mass of 125.09GeV. Results from a combination of this analysis and other direct searches for invisible decays of the Higgs boson, performed using data collected at root s = 7, 8, and 13 TeV, are presented. An observed (expected) upper limit of 0.19(0.15), at 95% confidence level, is set on the branching fraction of invisible decays of the Higgs boson. The combined limit represents the most stringent bound on the invisible branching fraction of the Higgs boson reported to date. This result is also interpreted in the context of Higgs-portal dark matter models, in which upper bounds are placed on the spin-independent dark-matter-nucleon scattering cross section.
