READING HOUSING AS AN URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE PATTERNING THE ‘WHORE STIGMA’

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, I conceptualize housing as an urban infrastructure enabling the reproduction, exploitation, circulation and emplacement of the ‘whore stigma’. To this end, I engage with infrastructural scholarship, particularly the emerging field of infrastructural housing studies, and situate it in dialogue with critical perspectives on ...

CARE AND CONTROL IN URBAN BRAZIL: The Subaltern Archive of Portarias

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Security infrastructures permeate everyday life in Brazilian cities. Although security guards and doormen play an important and omnipresent role as social and technological mediators, their practices and perceptions have received little attention.

Some approximation properties of ( p , q ) $(p,q)$ -Bernstein operators

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2016
This paper is concerned with the ( p , q ) $(p,q)$ -analog of Bernstein operators. It is proved that, when the function is convex, the ( p , q ) $(p,q)$ -Bernstein operators are monotonic decreasing, as in the classical case.

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...

Shape Preserving Properties for q-Bernstein-Stancu Operators

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, 2014
We investigate shape preserving for q-Bernstein-Stancu polynomials Bnq,α(f;x) introduced by Nowak in 2009. When α=0, Bnq,α(f;x) reduces to the well-known q-Bernstein polynomials introduced by Phillips in 1997; when q=1, Bnq,α(f;x) reduces to Bernstein ...

Hurricane‐induced risk contagion in commercial real estate: Evidence from Hurricane Sandy

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how hurricane‐induced destruction affects the prices of nearby undamaged commercial real estate properties, using Hurricane Sandy as a natural experiment. Using Real Capital Analytics transaction records spatially merged with Federal Emergency Management Agency building‐level damage data, we empirically employ a difference ...

The Eigenstructure of the Bernstein Operator

open access: yesJournal of Approximation Theory, 2000
The authors determine the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Bernstein operator \(B_n\), the latter are, of course, \(n+1\) polynomials of degrees \(k=0,\dots,n\). They show that the \(k\)th eigen-polynomial \(p^{(n)}_k\) has \(k\) simple zeros in \([0,1]\) and describe \(\lim_{n\to\infty}p^{(n)}_k\), for fixed \(k\).

Green Equals Green? The Divergent Policy Logics of Climate and Biodiversity Governance

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Market‐based instruments (MBIs) are increasingly promoted in international biodiversity and climate governance. This article argues that biodiversity policy has distinct dynamics and complexities that require approaches beyond economic instruments. By analyzing key concepts such as ecosystem services, biodiversity offsets, and MBIs, this study
