Do Government Interventions Improve Local Public Service Performance? Evidence From a Synthetic Control Approach

Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Governments in many democratic countries have the mandate to require local authorities to address failures in the management and performance of the public services that they provide. Such policies often involve the takeover of authorities to implement improvements assumed to result in organizational turnaround.

The induced path function, monotonicity and betweenness

The induced path function $J(u, v)$ of a graph consists of the set of all vertices lying on the induced paths between vertices $u$ and $v$. This function is a special instance of a transit function.

Quantifiers for a Modal Future

Philosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Future auxiliaries present a challenge to the classical analysis of modal expressions as existential or universal quantifiers over a contextually provided set of possible worlds: these expressions come with a distinct modal flavor, but their interaction with negation and the fact that future judgments come in degrees of confidence is ...

Trade and Selection With Heterogeneous Firms and Perfect Competition

Review of International Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper extends the Heckscher–Ohlin–Samuelson framework to allow for heterogeneous firms with capacity constraints. We show that the central theorems of the HOS model (as well as their standard generalizations via duality) carry over to our setting.

A review of the supercritical state of eruption‐fed volcanic density currents in subaerial and subaqueous settings

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subaerial Pyroclastic Density Currents (PDCs) and Subaqueous Eruption‐Fed Density Currents (SEFDCs) produced during volcanic eruptions can present major hazards to surrounding communities and ecosystems. The bedforms deposited by these volcanic density currents can provide insights into the nature of transport and depositional processes, which
