Patterns of Adaptation to Drought in Quercus robur Populations in Central European Temperate Forests. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
We examined drought tolerance of pedunculate oak from German populations. Our results show that trees from drier regions have greater drought tolerance, suggesting that they actively adapt to their local environment. Moreover, we observed a link between drought tolerance and the timing of spring bud burst, suggesting that adaptation to water stress may

Health Professionals on Cross-Sectoral Collaboration Between Mental Health Hospitals and Municipalities: A Critical Discourse Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesNurs Inq
ABSTRACT This study investigates the role of language in cross‐sector collaboration between mental health hospitals and municipalities, focusing on the challenges of maintaining continuity of care and integrating patient‐centered approaches. Using Fairclough's framework for critical discourse analysis, we examined focus group interviews with 21 ...

Security analysis of key agreement protocol based on matrix power function

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2012
Key agreement protocol (KAP) using Burau braid groups representation and matrix power function (MPF) is analyzed. MPF arguments are Burau representation matrices defined over finite field or ring.

The Interplay between Linear Representations of the Braid Group

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2007
We consider Wada's representation as a twisted version of the standard action of the braid group, Bn, on the free group with n generators. Constructing a free group, Gnm, of rank nm, we compose Cohen's map Bn→Bnm and the embedding Bnm→Aut(Gnm) via Wada's

Generalizations of the standard Artin representation are unitary

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2005
We consider the Magnus representation of the image of the braid group under the generalizations of the standard Artin representation discovered by M. Wada.

Burau representation of $B_4$ and quantization of the rational projective plane

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mathématique
The braid group $B_4$ naturally acts on the rational projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{Q})$, this action corresponds to the classical integral reduced Burau representation of $B_4$. The first result of this paper is a classification of the orbits of

Monodromy representations of Jordan-Pochhammer systems

open access: yesСовременная математика: Фундаментальные направления
In this paper, we consider Burau representations of braid groups and Gassner representations of pure braid groups, and their realization as monodromy representations of Jordan-Pochhammer systems with suitable parameters.

Do Medical Health Ministers Make Different Health System Choices?

open access: yesGovernance, Volume 39, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Healthcare decision‐making is a highly specialized domain of government, particularly at the central or federal level, which may partly explain why medical professionals are sometimes appointed to ministerial roles within government cabinets.

Subtle Messages That Subvert the Safe Space: The Negative Relationship of Religious Microaggressions in Psychotherapy and Treatment Satisfaction Is Mediated by Poorer Working Alliance

open access: yesCounselling and Psychotherapy Research, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The present study investigated religious microaggressions in psychotherapy and counselling. Aiming to conceptually replicate and extend previous findings of Trusty et al., we tested whether religious microaggressions adversely affect treatment satisfaction via poorer therapeutic alliance in a mediation model.

Increasing Public Managers' Perceived Autonomy by Decreasing the Level of Detail in Payment Models? The Dependency and Interdependency of Control Practices

open access: yesFinancial Accountability &Management, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 219-236, May 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigate public managers' perceptions about the characteristics of global budgets and the association with perceived autonomy, using a qualitative, experiential approach. We compare and contrast differences in managers perceived autonomy associated with the use of global budgets in two large public healthcare organizations, while ...
