Macau as Method: Recombinant Urbanism in Post‐Socialist China

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In ‘Asia as Method’, Chen Kuan‐Hsing argues for the value of an indigenous inter‐Asian approach to analysing the effects of European imperialism on the countries and citizens of Asia. This article mobilises both Chen's inter‐Asian referencing strategy and the city‐state of Macau to explore Macau's role in China's engagements with global ...

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Pareto Optimality in Infinite Horizon Cooperative Differential Games [PDF]

open access: yes
In this article we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Pareto optimal solutions for infinite horizon cooperative differential games. We consider games defined by non autonomous and discounted autonomous systems.

Disciplining the “Queen of the World”? Responsible Innovation as a Way of Life

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper offers a critical reflection on the concept of responsible innovation as defined during the last decades. We argue that the emphasis on innovation as a process risks neglecting the very goals of innovation, namely societal desirability and acceptability. Thus, we suggest reconsidering the role of imagination, the “Queen of the world”

A detailed analysis of the brachistochrone problem

open access: yes, 2012
If A and B are two points in the plane, with B lower and to the right of A, then we may consider the trajectory of an object travelling from A to B under the influence of gravity.

Targeting protein–protein interactions with reversible covalent modalities: Non‐cysteine chemistries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are central to diverse cellular functions, and represent a rapidly expanding class of therapeutic targets. Advancements in covalent drug design have enabled small‐molecule drugs to overcome challenges associated with engaging these targets, such as limited durations of action and difficult‐to‐drug (expansive,

Progressively Projected Newton's Method

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Newton's Method is widely used to find the solution of complex non‐linear simulation problems. To guarantee a descent direction, it is common practice to clamp the negative eigenvalues of each element Hessian prior to assembly—a strategy known as Projected Newton (PN)—but this perturbation often hinders convergence.

Register‐Efficient Linear‐Time Evaluation in the Bernstein Basis

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate the evaluation of points and derivatives of Bézier curves and surfaces on modern architectures, focusing on performance and guided by numerical error bounds. While the de Casteljau algorithm remains the reference for numerical robustness, its linear working‐set size imposes substantial register pressure on GPUs.

Binary quantum random number generator based on value indefinite observables

open access: yesScientific Reports
All quantum random number generators based on measuring value indefinite observables are at least three-dimensional because the Kochen–Specker Theorem and the Located Kochen–Specker Theorem are false in dimension two.

Declining female participation: Mechanisms at play in the Viennese private annuity market, c. 1360–1450

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract During the high and late Middle Ages, the European economy witnessed the emergence and substantial growth of capital markets, a phenomenon connected to urbanization and pestilence, both of which brought profound changes to the social, legal, and economic positions of women.

From Time‐Limited Therapy to Treatment‐Free Observation: The Evolving Role of MRD in CLL Management

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of measurable residual disease (MRD) into the management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has emerged as a major advance in risk stratification and trial design, particularly in the context of time‐limited, targeted regimens.
