Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Women's Representation on Boards and Board Processes: Curvilinear Relationships, Moderated by Board Chair Authentic Leadership

open access: yesCorporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue We examine how women's representation on boards (WRB) shapes board processes (effort norms, cognitive conflict, and use of knowledge and skills) and how board chairs' leadership moderates those relationships. Our theory integrates insights from information processing theory with intergroup threat theory.

How important are within‐occupation task changes for wage growth? Evidence from administrative micro data

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
We examine how changes in task content over time condition occupational wage development. Using survey data from Germany, we document substantial heterogeneity in within‐occupation changes in task content. Combining this evidence with administrative data on individual employment outcomes over a 25‐year period, we find important heterogeneity in wage ...

Are the upwardly mobile more Left‐wing?

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
Abstract It is well‐known that the wealthier are less likely to have Left‐leaning political preferences. In addition, we consider here the role of the individual's starting position, and in particular their upward social mobility relative to their parents.

The effects of salary history bans on wages, hiring, and wage gaps

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper provides a theoretical analysis of salary history bans, which prohibit firms from inquiring about applicants' prior wages. When salary histories are banned, firms cannot tailor their wage offers to the applicants' prior wages and thus offer the same wage to each group of workers.
