What works in internal alternative provision? A salutogenic analysis
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Schools across England are setting up ‘internal alternative provision’ to meet the social, emotional and mental health needs of increasing numbers of pupils at risk of suspension, exclusion and absence. However, there is little guidance about what good practice looks like.

A Refinement of Jensen’s and Minkowski’s Inequalities via Superquadratic Functions
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical SciencesWe provide in this note a different refinement of Jensen’s inequality obtained via superquadratic functions. A refinement of Minkowski’s and Hölder’s inequalities is also established as an application of our refined Jensen’s inequality.

Thermodynamic Limit for Finite Dimensional Classical and Quantum Disordered Systems
, 2004 We provide a very simple proof for the existence of the thermodynamic limit for the quenched specific pressure for classical and quantum disordered systems on a $d$-dimensional lattice, including spin glasses.

An operator inequality related to Jensen’s inequality [PDF]
Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2001 Summary: For bounded non-negative operators \(A\) and \(B\), Furuta showed \[ 0\leq A \leq B \text{ implies } A^{\frac{r}{2}}B^sA^{\frac{r}{2}} \leq (A^{\frac{r}{2}}B^tA^{\frac{r}{2}})^{\frac{s+r}{t+r}}\quad (0\leq r, 0\leq s \leq t).

Bridging the Gap: Student Voices on Recruitment and Retention in Ecology
The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.Abstract Students entering ecology and environmental science face a variety of challenges, including limited awareness of career paths, lack of mentorship, and difficulties connecting with peers and faculty. These challenges are often amplified for students from marginalized backgrounds, who may also encounter microaggressions, underrepresentation, and

Jensen's Functionals on Time Scales
Journal of Function Spaces and Applications, 2012 We consider Jensen’s functionals on time scales and discuss its properties and applications. Further, we define weighted generalized and power means on time scales.

Exploring the Governance–Disclosure Nexus: Board Structures and ESG Disclosures in South Africa
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how governance structures such as board composition and board functions influence environmental, social and governance (ESG) reporting among listed South African firms. This study examines 90 public listed companies on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange between 2012 and 2022.

On Logarithmic Convexity for Differences of Power Means
Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2008 We proved a new and precise inequality between the differences of power means. As a consequence, an improvement of Jensen's inequality and a converse of Holder's inequality are obtained.

Complex Firms, Controversial Outcomes: Global Evidence on ESG Failures and Remedies
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine whether business complexity increases firms' exposure to negative environmental, social, and governance (ESG) outcomes, specifically ESG controversies, using a global panel of firms from 37 countries over the period 2002–2021.
