Direct and indirect trade‐offs between resistance, growth and reproduction in the Japanese stinging nettle Urtica thunbergiana

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Most studies of trade‐offs between defence, growth and reproduction have examined pairwise correlations between these processes, used ratio‐based measures for defence allocation such as allelochemical concentration and trichome density and estimated resource allocation ...

Explicit form of the Mann-Marolf surface term in (3+1) dimensions

open access: yes, 2009
The Mann-Marolf surface term is a specific candidate for the "reference background term" that is to be subtracted from the Gibbons-Hawking surface term in order make the total gravitational action of asymptotically flat spacetimes finite.

Zeitgeist and Ortgeist: Time and Place in Institutional Creation

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract How are institutions created is one of the most interesting questions in institutional theory. Some strands of literature favour heroic explanations: mythologizing individuals with vision, tenacity and drive and putting these individuals on the pedestal of the institution.

A Jang Equation Approach to the Penrose Inequality

open access: yes, 2009
We introduce a generalized version of the Jang equation, designed for the general case of the Penrose Inequality in the setting of an asymptotically flat space-like hypersurface of a spacetime satisfying the dominat energy condition.

Active employees in the future workplace: From job crafting to selfergetic job crafting

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The job crafting theory implies, but does not explicitly present the relationship between the self and the job. To fill the gap, we theorize upon the holistic view of the self, and selfergy, a new concept reflecting the unique manner by which employees craft their jobs. Based on the principles of the self‐determination theory, we have advanced

On fraud and certification of green production

open access: yesJournal of Economics &Management Strategy, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 501-524, Summer 2025.
Abstract We present a novel model of fraud and certification in green production. We focus on settings where firms decide between a green or a standard version of a product together with an advertising strategy that can include fraud. In addition, green firms can choose to certify their production to guarantee the truthfulness of their claims.

Maternal sleep, coparenting quality, and parenting across the first 2 years postpartum

open access: yesJournal of Marriage and Family, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study examined the between‐ and within‐person associations between maternal sleep patterns and parenting quality across the first 2 years postpartum, with a particular interest in the moderating role of coparenting quality. Background Parents are at high risk for poor sleep health during the postpartum period. However, little is

Financing Constraints and the Family Farm: How do Families React? [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper explores the idea that off-farm income is used for investment in farm assets. Using Alabama farm data for the 1997-2004 period, we find that farm investment is more sensitive to off-farm than to on-farm income, and that this sensitivity is ...

Bounds for the Stieltjes Transform and the Density of States of Wigner Matrices

open access: yes, 2014
We consider ensembles of Wigner matrices, whose entries are (up to the symmetry constraints) independent and identically distributed random variables. We show the convergence of the Stieltjes transform towards the Stieltjes transform of the semicircle ...
