Unnatural Wills: Inheritance Disputes and Inequality
ABSTRACT Within the conceptual frame of relational economic sociology, inheritance disputes are a canonical form of relational mismatch. But the social patterning of relational mismatches, and their various ties to inequality, remain murky. In this paper, I examine all known inheritance disputes in Dallas from 1895–1945 within their social context to ...

Abstract Generative AI is increasingly positioned as a peer in collaborative learning, yet its effects on ethical deliberation remain unclear. We report a between‐subjects experiment with university students (N = 217) who discussed an autonomous‐vehicle dilemma in triads under three conditions: human‐only control, supportive AI teammate or contrarian ...

Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction
Abstract We propose a novel approach for constructing wide bounding volume hierarchies on the GPU by integrating a simple bottom‐up collapsing procedure within an existing binary bottom‐up BVH builder. Our approach directly constructs a wide BVH without traversing a temporary binary BVH as done by previous approaches and achieves 1.4 – 1.6 × lower ...

Style Brush: Guided Style Transfer for 3D Objects
We introduce Style Brush, a guided 3D style‐transfer method for textured meshes that provides precise creative control. It supports the use of multiple style images, smooth transitions and intuitive guidance, producing visually appealing textures that follow user intent as we demonstrate in our user study and results. Abstract We introduce Style Brush,

Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG
Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

On compact Einstein doubly warped product manifolds
In this paper, the non-existence of connected, compact Einstein doubly warped product semi-Riemannian manifold with non-positive scalar curvature is proved. It is also shown that there does not exist non-trivial connected Einstein doubly warped product semi-Riemannian manifold with compact base $B$ or fibre $F$.

On Warped-Twisted Product Submanifolds
We investigate warped-twisted product semi-slant submanifolds. We prove that a warped-twisted product semi-slant submanifold of the form f2MT ×f1 Mθ with warping function f2 on Mθ and twisting function f1 is a locally doubly warped product, where MT ...

Symmetrical Jute/JUCO/Glass hybrid epoxy composites were reinforced with TiO2 and CuO microparticles. Incorporating 3 wt.% CuO increased tensile strength by up to 63.7%, while 3 wt.% TiO2 maximized flexural and impact properties alongside superior moisture resistance, demonstrating that these fillers significantly enhance natural fiber biocomposites ...

DFT analysis of d7 pseudo‐octahedral Ni(III) complexes reveals Jahn–Teller elongation (ΔR ≈ 0.15–0.23 Å) analogous to d9 Cu(II) systems. Elongated structures are minima, while compressed geometries are saddle points with small stabilization energies (ΔEJT ≈ 0.02–0.04 eV).
