The locality problem for two tastes of staggered fermions
We address the locality problem arising in simulations, which take the square root of the staggered fermion determinant as a Boltzmann weight to reduce the number of dynamical quark tastes from four to two.

Construction of aggregation operators with noble reinforcement [PDF]
This paper examines disjunctive aggregation operators used in various recommender systems. A specific requirement in these systems is the property of noble reinforcement: allowing a collection of high-valued arguments to reinforce each other while ...

The costs of extra‐pair behaviours in birds
ABSTRACT Extra‐pair behaviours – reproductive behaviours, including those related to copulation and paternity of offspring, amongst animals outside of a social pair bond – have long intrigued behavioural ecologists, particularly from the female animal's perspective.

Symbolic or Substantive Action: Intent, Effort, and Results
ABSTRACT Many firms have made ambitious climate pledges since the Paris Agreement of 2015. These pledges may be symbolic or substantive, but the literature is fragmented in defining these two terms. We propose a conceptual framework with three frames to delineate symbolic from substantive action: Intent—underlying motivations for engaging in climate ...

Os novos atores jihadistas [PDF]
Resumo O jihadismo trouxe novos atores para o cenário mundial, particularmente no Ocidente. Estes novos atores estão surgindo em quase todo o mundo, exceto no subcontinente latino-americano, em alguns países pequenos e no Japão. Com a fundação do Estado Islâmico, a multiplicação de atores jihadistas aconteceu de maneira quantitativa e qualitativa ...

An investigation into the effectiveness of simulation-extrapolation for correcting measurement error-induced bias in multilevel models [PDF]
Master's Project (M.S) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2015This paper is an investigation into correcting the bias introduced by measurement errors into multilevel models. The proposed method for this correction is simulation-extrapolation (SIMEX).

Improving the Dirac Operator in Lattice QCD
Recently various new concepts for the construction of Dirac operators in lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) have been introduced. These operators satisfy the so-called Ginsparg-Wilson condition (GWC), thus obeying the Atiyah-Singer index theorem and ...

Navigating the Double Edge of Product‐Service Systems: User Behavior, Adoption, and Rebound Effects
ABSTRACT Product‐service systems (PSS) have been considered a promising approach to operationalizing the circular economy. Although many studies have outlined the potential sustainability gains of PSS solutions, it is still unclear what factors drive PSS adoption and how behavioral changes result in rebound effects, undermining their potential ...
