Cristid obliqua morphology as a correlate of diet in lorisoids
Abstract Methods for elucidating dietary patterns from dental morphology have provided much insight into molar form, function, and diet in extinct taxa. However, many methods rely on the collection of homologous landmarks (like shearing crest lengths), or computationally intensive and nuanced metrics that capture shape (like dental topography). Here, a

Sport, Agency and Pigeon Snaring in the Ancient Tongan Chiefdom
ABSTRACT Pigeon snaring was an élite sport in the traditional Tongan chiefdom, undertaken on purpose‐built mounds known as sia heu lupe. LiDAR imagery combined with field survey and mound documentation on the island of Tongatapu has identified a comprehensive corpus of these sites.

In this research, Morse code was introduced in a new type, which we called the hybrid to be appropriate between the code itself and the theory of fragmentation, which could later be used as a type of encryption in messages between two or more parties.

Fundamental theorems of Morse theory on posets
We prove a version of the fundamental theorems of Morse theory in the setting of finite partially ordered sets. By using these results we extend Forman's discrete Morse theory to more general cell complexes and derive the Morse-Pitcher inequalities in ...

ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...

Multiple solutions for a class of fractional equations
In this paper we study a class of fractional Laplace equations with asymptotically linear right-hand side. The existence results of three nontrivial solutions under the resonance and non-resonance conditions are established by using the minimax method ...

Three Nontrivial Solutions for Second-Order Partial Difference Equation via Morse Theory
In the present paper, we consider a second-order nonlinear partial difference equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Applying variational method together with the Morse theory, we establish a criterion to obtain at least three nontrivial solutions.

Beyond Closed Loops: Advancing Climate Change Mitigation by Collaborative Open Approaches
ABSTRACT Even as world leaders emphasize the urgency of limiting global warming, a slow transition to a circular economy persists. While climate mitigation efforts focus on renewable energy and efficiency measures, addressing the 45% of emissions from product manufacturing remains critical.

CEO Compensation and the ESG Activities of Compensation Peers
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between executive compensation at focal firms and the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance of compensation peer (CP) firms. Despite the growing integration of ESG metrics into executive compensation design, and the mandatory disclosure of CP groups, no prior research has examined ...
