Does an optimistic tone in annual reports predict better financial and non‐financial performance?
European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract In the current paper, we investigate whether management adopts an optimistic disclosure tone to impress the corporate audience or to provide incremental information (II) by anticipating positive corporate performance. Specifically, we test whether an optimistic tone in annual reports (ARs) is a positive predictor of better financial and non ...

Semilinear parabolic diffusion systems on the sphere with Caputo-Fabrizio operator
Advances in the Theory of Nonlinear Analysis and its Application, 2022 PDEs on spheres have many important applications in physical phenomena, oceanography and meteorology, geophysics. In this paper, we study the parabolic systems with Caputo-Fabrizio derivative. In order to establish the existence of the mild solution, we use the Banach fixed point theorem and some analysis of Fourier series associated with several ...

Circular Economy Platforms: A Systematic Review
Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 2810-2841, February 2026.ABSTRACT Digital platforms enable circular business models that can provide both economic and environmental benefits. However, the literature on platforms in the context of the circular economy has remained descriptive and fragmented across fields, posing challenges for synthesizing accumulated knowledge.

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Mental fatigue (MF) has been widely investigated in resistance exercise (RE). However, the results remain inconsistent, likely due to variability in the cognitive load across studies and, most importantly, the lack of individualized assessments of self‐reported MF levels among participants before initiating the RE session.

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.This paper introduces the Fractional Novel Analytical Method (FNAM), a Taylor‐series‐based technique for approximating nonlinear fractional differential‐difference equations. Built on the Caputo derivative, FNAM achieves rapid convergence without relying on Adomian polynomials, perturbation schemes, or transform methods.

Riemann-Liouville and Caputo type multiple Erdélyi-Kober operators
Open Physics, 2013 Abstract In this paper some generalized operators of Fractional Calculus (FC) are investigated that are useful in modeling various phenomena and systems in the natural and human sciences, including physics, engineering, chemistry, control theory, etc., by means of fractional order (FO) differential equations.

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 1855-1878, February 2026.This article focuses on the fully distributed leader‐following consensus problem of nonlinear fractional multi‐agent systems via event‐triggered control technique. The main intention of this article is to design a novel event‐triggered mechanism, which not only takes into account both the relative error and the absolute error of the samples but also ...

Public Administration and Development, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 77-92, February 2026.ABSTRACT Using public ethnography anchored in the post‐development theory and interpretivist epistemological paradigm, this study examines what we term the ‘socio‐cultural milieus dynamics’ (SCMD) of the Solomon Islands (SI) and how these shape meaning, discourse, and practice in ways that influence Australia's aid localisation efforts and aid outcomes.

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.Mosquito‐borne diseases are increasing globally, driven by the expanding range of invasive vectors, yet the mechanisms of their spread remain poorly understood. Using 20 years of invasion data from Spain, we combine high‐resolution human mobility data with a metapopulation model to study the colonisation dynamics of Aedes albopictus.
