Are honey bees altering wild plant–bee interactions in reconstructed native habitats? An investigation of summer season effects in row‐crop agroecosystems with prairie strips

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 807-823, October 2025.
We investigated the compatibility of beekeeping with pollinator conservation in ‘prairie strips’ a conservation practice integrating native prairie habitat into agricultural environments. At prairie strip sites with and without a honey bee apiary, we analysed plant–bee interactions and bumble bee body conditions to determine the effect of apiaries on ...

Belowground Communities in Lowlands Are Less Stable to Heat Extremes Across Seasons

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2025.
We experimentally exposed soil communities collected at different elevations and seasons to extreme heat events –based on site‐specific climatic history‐ and measured the stability (resistance and recovery) of Collembola and fungi, representing key trophic groups in belowground food chains.

Topics in random graphs, combinatorial optimization, and statistical inference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The manuscript is made of three chapters presenting three differenttopics on which I worked with Ph.D. students. Each chapter can be read independently of the others andshould be relatively self-contained. Chapter 1 is a gentle introduction to the theory

Assessing Input Legitimacy of Occupational Pensions in Europe

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 1086-1100, October 2025.
ABSTRACT As private asset‐based welfare like funded occupational pension schemes gain importance, legitimacy concerns arise due to financial market downturns and low investment returns. This paper assesses their input legitimacy by distinguishing between individual‐direct and collective‐representative input possibilities in decision‐making processes ...

On the future of international joint venture research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
International joint ventures (IJVs) are an important type of international strategic alliance (ISA) and have been studied by scholars for decades, resulting in a plethora of empirical studies, publications, and reviews, yet an inadequate accumulation of ...

Competitive versions of vertex ranking and game acquisition, and a problem on proper colorings [PDF]

open access: yes
In this thesis we study certain functions on graphs. Chapters 2 and 3 deal with variations on vertex ranking, a type of node-labeling scheme that models a parallel processing problem. A k-ranking of a graph G is a labeling of its vertices from {1,...,k}

Weak Hadamard matrices and Weakly Hadamard diagonalizable graphs

open access: yes, 2023
A weak Hadamard matrix is a $\{-1,0, 1\}$-matrix $P$ such that $PP^T$ is tridiagonal. We explore the underlying algebraic and combinatorial structure of weak Hadamard matrices and weakly Hadamard diagonalizable graphs (graphs whose Laplacian matrix is ...
