Multiparameter discrete Morse theory

Journal of Applied and Computational Topology
The main objective of this paper is to extend Morse-Forman theory to vector-valued functions. This is mostly motivated by the need to develop new tools and methods to compute multiparameter persistence. To generalize the theory, in addition to adapting the main definitions and results of Forman to this vectorial setting, we use concepts of ...

Promoting Fun or Competition? Testing Interventions on Ludic and Agonistic Work Design

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research highlights the benefits of play‐at‐work, yet little is known about training employees to self‐initiate it. We tested two programs to train employees on designing work with elements of fun (ludic work design [LWD]) or competition (agonistic work design [AWD]).

Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy on nonsurgical treatment of peri‐implantitis: 12–26 months follow‐up

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy, renowned for its immunomodulatory effects and established efficacy in orthopedics, shows promise for managing peri‐implantitis by reducing soft tissue inflammation and marginal bone loss.

Strategies and Process of Trade Secret Misappropriation Mitigation: The Case of UK

Strategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trade Secrets (TS) are vital for innovation‐driven companies, and their loss can inflict significant financial and reputational damage, particularly in the absence of established policies to mitigate misappropriation in the UK. The current academic literature lacks detailed strategies for firms to effectively address these threats.

C^0-generic properties of boundary operators in Novikov Complex

, 1998
One of the basic objects in the Morse theory of circle-valued maps is Novikov complex - an analog of the Morse complex of Morse functions. Novikov complex is defined over the ring of Laurent power series with finite negative part.

Intermediation Work for Localization: The Role of a Place‐Based and Multi‐Stakeholder Meta‐Organization

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Localization is the process of adapting and developing international aid to suit local contexts. Thus, localization involves paying attention to the relations between organizations and local actors receiving development aid. One key question that has not, as yet, been satisfactorily answered is how to collectively organize localization to ...

Navigating the Rapids: How Non‐Governmental Organization Managers Develop Strategic Adaptation to Repressive Political Environments

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the management adaptation strategies non‐governmental organizations (NGOs) managers employ in order to operate in repressive political environments. It answers the question: how do NGO managers initiate, manage and sustain internal change when the political/regulatory environment changes?

Controlling banana bunchy top disease in Benin: Crop protection strategies with socio‐economic perspectives

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Banana and plantain are vital for food security and income in West Africa, yet banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) threatens production. This study combined remote sensing, field surveys, modelling and socio‐economic analysis to assess BBTV spread and control strategies in Benin.

Intranasal diamorphine population pharmacokinetics modeling and simulation in pediatric breakthrough pain

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 435-447, March 2025.
Abstract Intranasal diamorphine (IND), approved for managing breakthrough pain in the UK, has been identified as an acceptable alternative offering effective, expedient, and less traumatic analgesia for children. However, the current dose regimen in pediatric populations relies on clinical expertise while the pharmacokinetics properties are poorly ...

Towards a Morse theory on Banach spaces via ultrafunctions

Arab Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 2015
Morse Theory on Banach spaces would be a useful tool in nonlinear analysis but its development is hindered by many technical problems. In this paper we present an approach based on a new notion of generalized functions called “ultrafunctions” which ...
