Caring Futures: Australian Attitudes About the Desirability of Care Work
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Amid increasing public and policy attention on the care and support sector, which millions of Australians rely upon for essential services, care workers continue to advocate for better pay and fairer conditions. This article draws on the concepts of recognition, value and social distribution from feminist ethics of care scholarship to explore ...

Functional affine-isoperimetry and an inverse logarithmic Sobolev inequality [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 We give a functional version of the affine isoperimetric inequality for log-concave functions which may be interpreted as an inverse form of a logarithmic Sobolev inequality inequality for entropy. A linearization of this inequality gives an inverse inequality to the Poincar'e inequality for the Gaussian measure.

Philanthropy and Indigenous Initiatives: Insights From Australian Donors
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper draws on a survey and interview data, collected from a group of 180 donors who made monetary gifts to an Australian higher education institution, to better understand what drives individuals and organisations to donate to Indigenous initiatives.

Log-Sobolev, isoperimetry and transport inequalities on graphs [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 In this paper, we study some functional inequalities (such as Poincar\'e inequalities, logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, generalized Cheeger isoperimetric inequalities, transportation-information inequalities and transportation-entropy inequalities) for reversible nearest-neighbor Markov processes on a connected finite graph by means of (random) path ...

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Over the last three decades, overseas researchers have utilised administrative data to identify distinct patterns in shelter use. In Australia, the use of administrative data to understand service utilisation patterns among people ‘at risk’ of homelessness and experiencing homelessness is limited.

An improved energy‐efficient driving strategy for routes with various gradients and speed limits
IET Intelligent Transport SystemsWith the increasing concerns about railway energy efficiency, two typical driving strategies have been used in actual train operation. One includes a sequence of full power traction, cruising, coasting, and full braking (CC).

Four Talagrand inequalities under the same umbrella [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 This note reviews the studies of the last decades emphasizing a common principle based on entropy, logarithmic Sobolev inequality and hypercontractivity, behind four most celebrated inequalities by M. Talagrand: the convex distance inequality, the $\mathrm {L}^1$-$\mathrm {L}^2$ variance inequality, the quadratic transportation cost inequality, and the
