A Collapse Result in the Mereology of Properties

open access: yesRatio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I examine five principles about the metaphysics of properties, each of which has been defended in the literature: (1) the sum of properties is their corresponding conjunctive property, (2) the mereology of properties is classical, (3) properties are individuated by necessary co‐instantiation, (4) sums of objects belonging to different ...

Image of mathematics: A case study of two women's early mathematics experiences

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract People often view mathematics as abstract, cold, and irrelevant to real life, and their school experiences likely influence such views. In this case study, we investigated the mathematics experiences of two women who participated in an afterschool girls‐only STEM club 30 years ago when they were in fifth and sixth grades.

Kripke's Reduction of Löb's Theorem to the Second Incompleteness Theorem

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we discuss Kripke's reduction of Löb's Principle to the Second Incompleteness Theorem. We have a closer look at the non‐constructive character of the reduction. We reflect on what the argument has to tell us. In the Appendix, We give a strengthening of Löb's Principle suggested by Kripke's reduction.

(Co‐)Reference All the Way Down: A Unified Theory of (Pro) Nominals in Ordinary English

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay joins two themes, both arising from Kripke's inspiring ideas in the theory of reference. The first theme concerns reference in general. The second examines the notion of co‐reference and the role it plays in a unified theory of pronouns for natural language.

A Vulnerability Lens for Intuitive‐Logic Scenarios

open access: yesFUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Exploration of possibilities by means of intuitive logic is hampered by a large number of scenarios, which easily exceed the limits imposed by human bounded rationality. While many practitioners constrain their scenarios within a 2 × 2 $2\times 2$ matrix by design, more structured approaches point to rationales such as eliminating ...

Opening the Black Box of EU Digital Sovereignty: A Macro‐Level Analysis of the Concept's Development

open access: yesGovernance, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Digital sovereignty has emerged as a central organizing principle in European Union governance, yet systematic understanding of its conceptual evolution remains limited. This article provides the first macro‐level analysis of how digital sovereignty evolves across institutional and academic domains.

Exploring Imprecise Probabilities in Quantum Algorithms with Possibility Theory

open access: yesPAMM, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Quantum computing utilizes the underlying principles of quantum mechanics to perform computations with unmatched performance capabilities. Rather than using classical bits, it operates on qubits, which can exist in superposition and entangled states. This enables the solution of problems that are considered intractable for classical computers.

Go Green or Go Digital? A Set‐Theoretic Perspective of Incumbents' Paths to Success

open access: yesCreativity and Innovation Management, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 125-142, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In response to growing pressures for environmental sustainability and technological advancement, this study examines how firms can effectively integrate green and digital innovations within ambidextrous strategies to enhance performance. Using fuzzy‐set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) on a sample of 175 German manufacturing and ...

Preventing and Recovering Food Waste in Manufacturing Firms: A Contingency Perspective on Circular Economy Practices

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 1902-1929, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Food waste is a sustainability concern in the food industry, which can be mitigated through a circular economy. Circularity can be limited by contextual constraints, such as the characteristics of the waste to be recovered. However, their study in the context of food waste is scarce.

Performance and Cost Evaluation of StarPU on AWS: Case Studies With Dense Linear Algebra Kernels and N‐Body Simulations

open access: yesConcurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Task‐based programming interfaces introduce a paradigm in which computations are decomposed into fine‐grained units of work known as “tasks”. StarPU is a runtime system originally developed to support task‐based parallelism on on‐premise heterogeneous architectures by abstracting low‐level hardware details and efficiently managing resource ...
