How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Some properties of convex and $*$-concave multifunctions

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis: Studia Mathematica, 2006
We investigate some properties of {$*$}-concave and convex multifunctions on the real line with convex bounded closed values. In particularly we consider the Hadamard inequality and the Hardy--Little-wood--P'olya majorization theory in the case of ...

Fractional Integral Estimates of Boole Type: Majorization and Convex Function Approach with Applications

Fractal and Fractional
The goal of this paper is to use a Boole-type inequality framework to provide better estimates for differentiable functions. Using majorization theory, fractional integral operators are incorporated into a new auxiliary identity.

Majorization Inequalities via Peano's Representation of Hermite's Polynomial

International Journal of Analysis and Applications, 2018
The Peano’s representation of Hermite polynomial and new Green functions are used to construct the identities related to the generalization of majorization type inequalities in discrete as well as continuous case. Cˇebyˇsev functional is used to find the bounds for new generalized identities and to develop the Gr¨uss and Ostrowski type inequalities ...

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development

Schur convexity of the generalized geometric Bonferroni mean and the relevant inequalities

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
In this paper, we discuss the Schur convexity, Schur geometric convexity and Schur harmonic convexity of the generalized geometric Bonferroni mean. Some inequalities related to the generalized geometric Bonferroni mean are established to illustrate the ...

Negotiating contested spaces and places: Narratives of social suffering and resistance in racialized Cape Town communities

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study employs a schizocartographic approach to explore community narratives of space, memory, and violence in Kraaifontein, Cape Town. Through participants' accounts, ordinary places—gardens, shops, blocks, sports grounds, and streets—emerge as ambivalent geographies where trauma, resilience, and belonging intersect.

A Global Prospective Harmonization Framework for Suicidality, Anhedonia, and Obsessive‐Compulsive Symptoms in Psychiatric Genetic Studies: A Cross‐Continental Study Within the Ancestral Population Network

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aims to prospectively collect harmonized, quantitative, and dimensional psychiatric phenotypes (suicidality, anhedonia, and obsessive‐compulsive symptoms) and information on discrimination, stigma, and unfair treatment in up to 27,500 individuals across diverse ancestries and clinical populations for genetic analysis within the NIMH
