Discrete Morse theory for Filtrations

open access: yes, 2012
The central result of this dissertation is an extension of discrete Morse theory to filtered cell complexes. Discrete Morse theory imposes a pairing on some cells of a complex X and uses that pairing to introduce a new complex M – called the Morse ...

Two‐Dimensional Materials for Flexible Neuromorphic Devices: Materials, Engineering Strategies, Architectures, and Emerging Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, Volume 12, Issue 17, 7 September 2026.
This review explains how atomically thin materials can combine information storage, processing, and mechanical flexibility in neuromorphic devices. It connects material properties and engineering strategies with device architecture, synaptic behavior, and performance under bending.

Controlling banana bunchy top disease in Benin: Crop protection strategies with socio‐economic perspectives

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1675-1691, September 2026.
Banana and plantain are vital for food security and income in West Africa, yet banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) threatens production. This study combined remote sensing, field surveys, modelling and socio‐economic analysis to assess BBTV spread and control strategies in Benin.

Persistent‐Homology‐Based Descriptors of Pore Heterogeneity for Generalized Permeability Prediction

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Characterizing pore‐structure heterogeneity is essential for understanding and predicting fluid transport processes in geological formations. However, it remains challenging because conventional descriptors capture only partial structural information, making it difficult to consistently distinguish complex pore structures across lithologies ...

A Discrete Version of Stratified Morse Theory

open access: yes, 2018
Classical Morse theory connects the topology of a manifold with critical points of a Morse function. Stratified Morse theory considers the topology of a stratified space with critical points of a stratified Morse function.

‘Everything is a signal’: speaking circuits and noisy signs in the making of language‐oriented AI « Tout est signal » : circuits parlants et signes bruyants dans la création de l'IA orientée langage

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 983-1002, September 2026.
Contemporary artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are often presumed to be capable of revealing unmediated truths about the world, including the truths language might hold, echoing the long‐standing assertion that language's primary function is to directly translate reality.

Financial Climate‐Risk Measurement, Impact Funds, and Green Transitions

open access: yesJournal of Accounting Research, Volume 64, Issue 4, Page 1867-1903, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Regulators are contemplating or mandating precise measurement of financial climate‐risk exposure to promote sustainable investments. We show that such mandates can be counterproductive in the presence of social funds that catalyze change by subsidizing the adoption of cleaner production technologies.

An approach to calculate Franck-Condon factors involving anharmonic potentials using harmonic oscillator bases

open access: yesJournal of Physics Communications
In this contribution a discrete variable representation (DVR) approach to calculate Franck-Condon factors (FCFs) is presented. The method is illustrated using a harmonic oscillator basis. The advantage of this approach is that it is possible to calculate

Posthumanism and Cybernetic Art: An Esthetic Exploration of Technology and Human Identity

open access: yesSociology Lens, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 469-481, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Posthumanism is a contemporary intellectual movement that redefines the relationship between humans, technology, biology, and culture. While questioning the traditional humanist perspective that places humans at the center of the universe, it also examines the transformative effects of technology on human identity.

On discrete Morse theory in persistent topology [PDF]

open access: yes
The main topic of this thesis is the interplay between discrete Morse theory and persistent topology: we apply methods from discrete Morse theory to filtered complexes, as they appear in Topological Data Analysis, and study certain persistent homotopy ...
