A Machine Learning Framework for Assessing Systemic Societal Vulnerability to Coastal Flooding

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Vulnerability indices are increasingly used to understand why coastal urban communities experience differential flood impacts. However, they are criticised for subjective indicator selection, weighting and aggregation, which rely on researcher judgement and rarely integrate uncertainty.

Surface subgroups for cocompact lattices of isometries of H2n$\mathbb {H}^{2n}$

open access: yesJournal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract We prove the existence of surface subgroups within any cocompact lattice Γ$\Gamma$ in SO(2n,1)$\mathrm{SO}(2n,1)$ for n⩾2$n\geqslant 2$. This result addresses the cases missing from the work of Hamenstädt in 2015, who constructed surface subgroups in cocompact lattices for all other rank‐1 simple Lie groups of noncompact type.

The Role of Lightning in Atmospheric Chemistry

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Lightning has important effects on atmospheric constituents in primarily the middle and upper troposphere. We summarize the effects of lightning on atmospheric chemistry that have been published since the last major review in 2007. The estimates of NOx production by lightning (LNOx) are based on five methods: theoretical/laboratory estimates ...

Self‐Similar Blowup for the Cubic Schrödinger Equation

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 1831-1918, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We give a rigorous proof for the existence of a finite‐energy, self‐similar solution to the focusing cubic Schrödinger equation in three spatial dimensions. The proof is computer‐assisted and relies on a fixed point argument that shows the existence of a solution in the vicinity of a numerically constructed approximation.

Bidiagonal Decompositions and High‐Accuracy Computations for Newton Collocation Matrices

open access: yesNumerical Linear Algebra with Applications, Volume 33, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider a class of collocation matrices A$$ A $$ associated with the Newton basis of the space of polynomials of degree at most n$$ n $$, evaluated at a set of l+1≥n+1$$ l+1\ge n+1 $$ nodes. In the most general setting, we allow n$$ n $$ of these nodes to either coincide with or differ from those defining the Newton basis.
