International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Much of the current popular and academic literature on the provision of green spaces is dominated by the assumption that ‘nature’ is an unalloyed positive, and that socioeconomic and racial exclusion from access to green spaces is a problem of unequal spatial distribution rather than of the form and content of particular urban designs.

Sheaf Toposes for Realizability
, 2001 We compare realizability models over partial combinatory algebras by embedding them into sheaf toposes. We then use the machinery of Grothendieck toposes and geometric morphisms to study the relationship between realizability models over different ...

Accounting Perspectives, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A long‐standing debate exists between neutrality and conservatism in financial reporting. This debate has gained momentum following the 2010 FASB decision to remove the term conservatism from its Conceptual Framework. While neutrality is now promoted as a cornerstone of faithful representation, conservatism remains embedded in numerous ...

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We develop a method for estimating the private value of knowing the future realization of some financial statistics, and then we apply the measure to the familiar ratios from the DuPont decomposition of return on equity. The estimation is grounded in the standard rational expectations model, adapted to accommodate relative risk aversion, and ...

, 2013 The thesis is a comprehensive analysis of realizability toposes, which is divided into three central chapters. The first chapter considers a class of realizability models which are a generalization of realizability triposes, and derives a collection of ...

Reduction and Multiple Realizability [PDF]
, 2014 This paper addresses the recent resurgence of Nagel style reduction in the philosophical literature. In particular, it considers the so-called multiple realizability objection to reductionism presented most forcefully by Sober in 1999.

Wave Tracing: Generalizing The Path Integral To Wave Optics
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Modeling the wave nature of light and the propagation and diffraction of electromagnetic fields is crucial for the accurate simulation of many phenomena, yet wave simulations are significantly more computationally complex than classical ray‐based models.

Environmental justice in education for climate action: Case studies from Perú and Uganda
Children &Society, EarlyView.Abstract This paper draws on participatory research with secondary school learners in Perú and Uganda that shows how environmental and social (in) justices are interwoven and embedded in young people's experiences of the natural world. These experiences contrast with learners' accounts of environmental education in secondary schooling, in which the ...

European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract Many organizations and their stakeholders are facing major technological, societal, and geopolitical shifts, making it increasingly necessary to jointly shape desirable futures. This Perspective paper builds on Romme's research program that seeks to re‐introduce a problem‐solving (i.e., engineering) mindset in management research.
