Bulletin of Economic Research, Volume 78, Issue 4, Page 784-802, October 2026.ABSTRACT This paper examines student admissions to higher education based on past performance, focusing on two measures: high school GPA and national exam scores. GPA is teacher‐assigned and based on repeated assessments, while these exams are externally graded, one‐off standardized tests. Using a nationwide dataset, we investigate how the relevance of

Geographical Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Scale is central to inference in natural and social systems, and geography and ecology have treated it as an explicit object of theory for decades. This paper builds on that work with a formal view in which scale is a degree of freedom of description, parameterizing both the mappings between representations and the metric defining distance and

Journal of Business Logistics, Volume 47, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Natural disasters disrupt the normal functioning of both communities and businesses. However, past literature often segregates the disaster relief view from the business continuity perspective, leaving a gap in understanding how firms can proactively support relief efforts.

Random Carbon Tax Policy and Investment Into Emission Abatement Technologies
Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 804-825, October 2026.ABSTRACT We analyze the problem of a profit‐maximizing electricity producer, subject to carbon taxes, who decides on investments into CO2$\rm CO_2$ abatement technologies. We assume that the carbon tax policy is random and that the investment in the abatement technology is divisible, irreversible, and subject to transaction costs.

Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 870-895, October 2026.ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...

Kinetic and Mean‐Field Modeling of Muscular Dystrophies
Studies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 157, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT We present a new class of models for assessing the cell dynamics characterizing muscular dystrophies. The proposed approach comprises a system of integro‐differential equations for the statistical distributions, over a large patient cohort, of the densities of muscle fibers and immune cells implicated in muscle inflammation, degeneration, and ...
