Beam search heuristics for quadratic earliness and tardiness scheduling [PDF]
In this paper, we present beam search heuristics for the single machine scheduling problem with quadratic earliness and tardiness costs, and no machine idle time. These heuristics include classic beam search procedures, as well as filtered and recovering

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Predicting corporate environmental violations remains a key challenge in practice and in environmental governance research. However, existing studies have largely focused on ex post associations between stakeholder pressures and realized environmental violations, offering limited insight into whether stakeholder pressures can be used ex ante ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As organizations respond to calls for sustainability, many invest in organizational change towards a circular economy (OCCE), which often depends on employee proactivity. However, OCCE is fraught with tensions that can either limit or foster proactive efforts.

On Linear Quadratic Approximations [PDF]
We prove the generality of the methodology proposed in Benigno and Woodford (2006). We show that, even in the presence of a distorted steady state, it is always possible and relatively simple to obtain a purely quadratic approximation to the welfare ...

Beyond the Board: Does CEO‐CFO Tenure Staggering Curb ESG Greenwashing?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Greenwashing threatens the credibility of corporate environmental strategies and ESG disclosure by creating a disconnect between symbolic claims and substantive action. Existing research mainly focuses on external pressures and formal governance mechanisms, with limited attention to the relational structure of the top management team ...

A Result on Output Feedback Linear Quadratic Control [PDF]
In this note we consider the static output feedback linear quadratic control problem.We present both necessary and sufficient conditions under which this problem has a solution in case the involved cost depend only on the output and control variables ...

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions
Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Vine copula knockoffs for variable selection in gene expression studies
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Identifying clinical and genetic markers is essential for stratifying cancer patients by survival outcomes and guiding personalized treatment strategies. However, gene expression studies often involve high‐dimensional predictors with mixed data types and complex dependence, which complicates reliable variable selection.

The Open-Loop Discounted Linear Quadratic Differential Game for Regular Higher Order Index Descriptor Systems [PDF]
In this paper we consider the discounted linear quadratic differential game for descriptor systems that have an index larger than one. We derive both necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of an open-loop Nash (OLN) equilibrium.
