Compact Manifolds With Unbounded Nilpotent Fundamental Groups and Positive Ricci Curvature
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It follows from the work of Kapovitch and Wilking that a closed manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature has a uniformly almost nilpotent fundamental group. Leftover questions and conjectures, have asked if in this context the fundamental group is actually uniformly almost abelian. The main goal of this work is to construct examples (Mk9,gk)$(

Governing Sponge City Transitions: Policy Objectives and Socio‐Technical Change
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In theory, climate adaptation policy cycles can be framed as being harmonized and goal‐oriented governance processes. Yet any examination of climate adaptation in cities reveals persistent tensions between this logic and the diverse forces shaping adaptation in practice.

Autonomous Nanomedicine: Closing the Biological Validation Gap
Exploration, EarlyView.Delivery of nanoparticles to tumors has not improved in over fifteen years, and biological testing remains slow and separate from formulation design. This review proposes adding a Biology step to the design cycle, using organ chips and patient‐derived organoids, and assesses the readiness of each required technology.
