Global Oil and Gas Stocks: Anomalies, Systematic Risks and Mispricing
ABSTRACT We analyse anomaly and factor risk premia in the global oil and gas (OG) sector, which plays a central role in the global economy through its importance for energy supply, industrial production, and capital markets. Using firm‐level and portfolio data, we examine whether cross‐sectional return patterns reflect systematic risk compensation or ...

Abstract The term femicide, widely used in reference to the “killing of a woman because she is a woman,” has been questioned on the ground that it implies unequal dignity of men and women victims of gender related death. This position called for an analysis of the terminology used to describe and define the various forms of killing of women and men. We

Fiscal Policy Regimes in Resource‐Rich Economies
ABSTRACT We analyse fiscal policy in resource‐rich economies using a novel Bayesian regime‐switching panel model. The identified regimes capture pro‐ or countercyclical fiscal behaviour by allowing regime‐specific shifts in the average fiscal stance, while the switches between the regimes have the interpretation of changes in fiscal policy.

ABSTRACT As global populations age, organizations face increasing pressure to support an age‐diverse workforce. Although age‐diversity practices have been shown to yield individual benefits, their temporal impact on broader evaluations of the organization such as employees' company ratings remains underexplored.

Abstract BACKGROUND Diplotaxis tenuifolia L. cv Dallas (rocket leaves) is one of the most widely consumed fresh‐cut salad vegetables in Europe, especially in southern Italy, being appreciated for its pungent taste and health promoting phytochemicals. However, its short postharvest shelf‐life is still a major drawback.

ABSTRACT Chemical compliance remains the usual endpoint for closing contaminated‐soil remediation projects, although it does not establish recovery of soil function or the durability of the post‐treatment state. This critical review examines when microbiological evidence can contribute to ecological closure decisions.

From Planar to 3D Nanophotonic Lenses: Advancing Design, Fabrication, and Applications
Three‐dimensional nanophotonic lenses are enabled by an integrated workflow that links design parameterization, full‐wave electromagnetic simulation, computational optimization, and freeform fabrication. This Review summarizes how these tools expand optical design freedom beyond a single patterned plane by enriching the local meta‐atom response and ...

Demand‐Driven Mergers: Advertising, Differentiation, and Welfare
ABSTRACT We consider mergers that induce demand changes. We study the firms' incentives to submit a merger request and the competition authority's decision to approve the request. We show that merger‐induced demand changes help expand settings where the interests of firms and competition authority align, whereas contexts where their interests are ...

ABSTRACT Trade‐policy shocks raise visible operating pressure on firms through sourcing costs, supplier exposure, and market‐serving choices. A direct operating‐margin interpretation points to production reconfiguration, pricing changes, or supply‐chain adjustment.

ABSTRACT This paper focuses on optimal design problems in the context of the Kirchhoff‐Love model for pure bending of a thin, solid, symmetric plate under a transverse load. The objective is to simultaneously determine the optimal outer shape of the domain and the distribution of two isotropic materials within the domain in order to minimize compliance.
