The future of regional airports in Australia: Policy challenges
Abstract Council‐owned regional airports in Australia face governance challenges that have caused significant financial unsustainability across the sector. Federal policy frameworks fail to address these challenges and risk exacerbating existing pressures by outlining ambitious visions for the adoption of new technologies and achieving net zero.

Dimensional reduction and (Anti) de Sitter bounds
Dimensional reduction has proven to be a surprisingly powerful tool for delineating the boundary between the string landscape and the swampland. Bounds from the Weak Gravity Conjecture and the Repulsive Force Conjecture, for instance, are exactly ...

Steady-state eternal inflation
Since the advent of inflation, several theorems have been proven suggesting that although inflation can (and generically does) continue eternally into the future, it cannot be extended eternally into the past to create a ``steady-state'' model with no initial time.

Beyond Westminster: How the Four‐Day Working Week Reached the UK Public Sector
Abstract The United Kingdom's emergence as a public sector pioneer in the four‐day working week debate presents a striking paradox.

Hawking–Moss tunneling in non-commutative eternal inflation
The quantum behavior of non-commutative eternal inflation is quite different from the usual scenario. Unlike the usual eternal inflation, non-commutative eternal inflation has quantum fluctuation suppressed by the Hubble parameter.
