Sociodemographic and regional differences in human–coyote interactions and human attitudes towards coyotes

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Attitudes and emotions shape how humans perceive and behave towards wildlife, making them a key component affecting human–wildlife coexistence. In addition to direct experience with wildlife, research shows that sociodemographic characteristics and locality can influence a person's relationship with wildlife through cultural norms, economic ...

Some Dynamic Inequalities of Hilbert’s Type

Journal of Function Spaces, 2020
This paper is concerned with deriving some new dynamic Hilbert-type inequalities on time scales. The basic idea in proving the results is using some algebraic inequalities, Hölder’s inequality and Jensen’s inequality, on time scales. As a special case of

Weaving for action: Transformative change in biodiversity monitoring

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The Post‐2020 Kunming‐Montreal Biodiversity Framework aims to drive transformative change to halt biodiversity loss. To track progress toward its goals and targets, a dedicated monitoring framework has been established. The current biodiversity monitoring framework relies on a set of indicators developed through a unidirectional process of ...

Expected Profitability of Capital under Uncertainty – a Microeconomic Perspective [PDF]

Hartman (1972) and Abel (1983) showed that when firms are competitive and there is flexibility of labour relative to capital, marginal profitability of capital is a convex function of the stochastic variable (e.g., price); by Jensen’s inequality, this ...

Asymptotics of Transmit Antenna Selection: Impact of Multiple Receive Antennas

, 2017
Consider a fading Gaussian MIMO channel with $N_\mathrm{t}$ transmit and $N_\mathrm{r}$ receive antennas. The transmitter selects $L_\mathrm{t}$ antennas corresponding to the strongest channels.

Recursive Feasibility of Nonlinear Stochastic Model Predictive Control With Gaussian Process Dynamics

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Data‐based learning of system dynamics allows model‐based control approaches to be applied to systems with partially unknown dynamics. Gaussian process regression is a preferred approach that outputs not only the learned system model but also the variance of the model, which can be seen as a measure of uncertainty.

Convexity and potential sums for Salpeter-like Hamiltonians

, 2002
The semirelativistic Hamiltonian H = \beta\sqrt{m^2 + p^2} + V(r), where V(r) is a central potential in R^3, is concave in p^2 and convex in p. This fact enables us to obtain complementary energy bounds for the discrete spectrum of H.

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

Types of Struggles in Disrupted Interaction: A Case of Hard‐of‐Hearing Employees

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Everyone experiences disrupted interactions in their everyday life. However, research indicates that people with functional impairments are particularly exposed to patterns of interactional inequality at work. Despite this, little is known about the specific disrupted interactions in everyday life and the various types of interactional struggles this ...
