Counting Degrees of Freedom: A Method Applicable From Scalars to f(Q)$f(\mathbb {Q})$ Gravity and Beyond

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a clear, step‐by‐step method for counting degrees of freedom and identifying constraints in general field theories. This approach, grounded in the works of Einstein, Hilbert, Cartan, Kuranishi, and, more recently, Seiler, is neither Lagrangian nor Hamiltonian in nature. Instead, it applies directly to the field equations. We offer a

Lexicographic differentiation of nonsmooth functions

open access: yes, 2005
We present a survey on the results related to the theory of lexicographic differentiation. This theory ensures an efficient computation of generalized (lexicographic) derivative of a nonsmooth function belonging to a special class of lexicographically ...

Pandemic emergency: A multi‐level AI framework for analyzing psychological impact through public discourse

open access: yesApplied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Emergency management has become a widely discussed topic in recent years, particularly in relation to different types of emergencies such as climate change, natural disasters, public health, and armed conflicts. The Covid‐19 pandemic has triggered unprecedented uncertainty, sparking a global emergency that raised concerns not only about health

Aplicação da semântica das condições de verdade à redação das definições nos dicionários semasiológicos Application of truth-conditional semantics to the writing of definitions in semasiological dictionaries

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Linguística Aplicada, 2012
Uma teoria da definição lexicográfica deve estar amparada em três parâmetros: (1) uma taxonomia de paráfrases definidoras, (2) um padrão sintático e (3) um modelo semântico. Este trabalho trata do terceiro parâmetro.

Inclusion, Contrast and Polysemy in Dictionaries: The Relationship between Theory, Language Use and Lexicographic Practice [PDF]

open access: yesResearch in Language, 2014
This paper explores the lexicographic representation of a type of polysemy that arises when the meaning of one lexical item can either include or contrast with the meaning of another, as in the case of dog/bitch, shoe/boot, finger/thumb and animal/bird.

WE, ELF and ELT: Perspectives on English and applied linguistics

open access: yesWorld Englishes, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 209-218, June 2026.
Abstract In a paper which originally set the scene for WE study, Braj Kachu argued that the ‘global diffusion of English’ called for a new paradigm of enquiry which recognized the independent status of varieties of English used by communities other than those of Inner Circle native speakers.

Maximum number of zeroes of polynomials on weighted projective spaces over a finite field

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We compute the maximum number of rational points at which a homogeneous polynomial can vanish on a weighted projective space over a finite field, provided that the first weight is equal to 1. This solves a conjecture by Aubry, Castryck, Ghorpade, Lachaud, O'Sullivan and Ram, which stated that a Serre‐like bound holds with equality for weighted
