Abstract Background and Aims A vast body of theory and research highlights the operation of seriation as a prerequisite to mathematical thinking in young children. However, there is limited evidence that seriation interventions improve early years mathematics.

The government–robber comparison: A long‐standing tradition beyond avowed libertarianism
Abstract A government differs from a robber, but they share the common feature of initiating coercion. This similarity has been noticed by libertarians as well as within a distinct scholarly tradition and as a recurring theme throughout Western philosophy.

Amazonian drought of 2023: Environmental conditions relevant to fishes
Abstract This paper provides a platform for the following studies within this Special Issue. ‘Ecophysiology of fishes in the two great tributaries of the Amazon in the Anthropocene’. It documents the water quality conditions and accompanying zooplankton community structure and biomass relative to fish health in the Rio Negro and Rio Solimões during the

Aggregation and the Structure of Value
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

On computing local monodromy and the numerical local irreducible decomposition
Abstract Similarly to the global case, the local structure of a holomorphic subvariety at a given point is described by its local irreducible decomposition. Geometrically, the key requirement for obtaining a local irreducible decomposition is to compute the local monodromy action of a generic linear projection at the given point, which is always well ...

Equivariant toric geometry and Euler–Maclaurin formulae
Abstract We first investigate torus‐equivariant motivic characteristic classes of toric varieties, and then apply them via the equivariant Riemann–Roch formalism to prove very general Euler–Maclaurin‐type formulae for full‐dimensional simple lattice polytopes.

Local equivalence and refinements of Rasmussen's s‐invariant
Abstract Inspired by the notions of local equivalence in monopole and Heegaard Floer homology, we introduce a version of local equivalence that combines odd Khovanov homology with equivariant even Khovanov homology into an algebraic package called a local even–odd (LEO) triple.

The ∞$\infty$‐categorical reflection theorem and applications
Abstract We prove an ∞$\infty$‐categorical version of the reflection theorem of AdÁmek and Rosický [Arch. Math. 25 (1989), no. 1, 89–94]. Namely, that a full subcategory of a presentable ∞$\infty$‐category that is closed under limits and κ$\kappa$‐filtered colimits is a presentable ∞$\infty$‐category.

Sharp commutator estimates of all order for Coulomb and Riesz modulated energies
Abstract We prove functional inequalities in any dimension controlling the iterated derivatives along a transport of the Coulomb or super‐Coulomb Riesz modulated energy in terms of the modulated energy itself. This modulated energy was introduced by the second author and collaborators in the study of mean‐field limits and statistical mechanics of ...

Bidiagonal Decompositions and Accurate Computations for the Ballot Table and the Fibonacci Matrix
ABSTRACT Riordan arrays include many important examples of matrices. Here we consider the ballot table and the Fibonacci matrix. For finite truncations of these Riordan arrays, we obtain bidiagonal decompositions. Using them, algorithms to solve key linear algebra problems for ballot tables and Fibonacci matrices with high relative accuracy are derived.
