THE TRANSCALAR POLITICS AND SPATIAL IMPLICATIONS OF INVESTMENTS IN SHOPPING MALLS IN AFRICAN CITIES: A Study of Accra's West Hills Mall, Ghana

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract A surge in the number of shopping malls across many African cities reflects capital's responses to the continent's growing middle class and deepening neoliberal globalization. This article develops an analysis of the transcalar nature of these urban investments using the case of the West Hills Mall (WHM) in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (

Silicon‐Bridged Homocyclopentadienides: Metal‐Assisted Facile Ring Expansion of Cyclopentadienide by Transient Imino(Metallophosphino)Silylenes

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 40, 28 September 2026.
We demonstrate the facile aromatic C─C bond cleavage of cyclopentadienide mediated by transient imino(metallophosphino)silylenes, enabling the transformation of an aromatic system into a homoaromatic species. The steric bulk of the phosphino substituent, together with the weak interaction between the coinage metal and the cyclopentadienide ligand, are ...

Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

Basis Networks: Learning basis functions for free‐form triangulations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a framework for learning compactly supported basis functions that define tangent continuous surfaces based on coarse irregular triangle meshes. The basis functions are represented as MLPs. Smoothness of the basis functions is achieved by using the values of Loop basis functions as the parameterization of the surface.

Phase transitions from heating to non-heating in $SU(1,1)$ quantum dynamics: Applications to Bose-Einstein condensates and periodically driven coupled oscillators

SciPost Physics Core
We study the entanglement properties in non-equilibrium quantum systems with the $SU(1,1)$ structure. Through Möbius transformation, we map the dynamics of these systems following a sudden quench or a periodic drive onto three distinct trajectories on ...

DiskScissors: Cutting Arbitrary‐Topology Solids for Bijective Mapping

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract An algorithm for cutting solid objects in a topology‐controlled manner is presented. Concretely, given a loop on the object boundary, a disk‐topology cut surface bounded by the loop is constructed in the interior. In contrast to various previous approaches, both disk topology and conformance to the prescribed loop are ensured by construction ...

Improving the Efficacy of Continuous Monitoring of Patients with Parkinson's Disease Through the Use of an Intelligent Computing Architecture Within the Medical Internet of Things

International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
Telemonitoring has grown in popularity these days, particularly to assist patients with serious illnesses such as Parkinson's disease (PD). This study relies on the Daphnet dataset, which was trained and utilized to track five patients' whereabouts for ...

Möbius Transformations in the Second Symmetric Product of ℂ

Mathematics
Let F2(C) denote the second symmetric product of the complex plane C endowed with the Hausdorff topology, i.e., F2(C)={A⊂C:|A|≤2,A≠∅}. In this paper, we extended the concept of Möbius transformations to F2(C).

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

On Testing for Independence Between Generalized Error Models of Several Time Series

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We define generalized innovations associated with generalized error models having arbitrary distributions, that is, distributions that can be mixtures of continuous and discrete distributions. These models include stochastic volatility models and regime‐switching models with possibly zero‐inflated regimes.
