Allocation of Indivisible Items With a Common Preference Graph: Minimizing Total Dissatisfaction

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allocating indivisible items among a set of agents is a frequently studied discrete optimization problem. In the setting considered in this work, the agents' preferences over the items are assumed to be identical. We consider a very recent measure for the overall quality of an allocation which does not rely on numerical valuations of the items.

Communities actively seek nature for well‐being despite constraints: (Re)representation of nature experiences through composite narratives

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1785-1801, June 2026.
Abstract While the physical and mental health benefits of greenspace exposure are well documented, ethnic minority communities in the United Kingdom continue to engage with these environments at disproportionately lower rates. This persistent disparity points to an oversight in existing literature, specifically regarding how these communities navigate ...

Hairdressing in groups: a survey of combings and formal languages

open access: yes, 1997
A group is combable if it can be represented by a language of words satisfying a fellow traveller property; an automatic group has a synchronous combing which is a regular language.

Bivariate postprocessing of wind vectors

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We introduce three novel bivariate postprocessing approaches and analyze their performance for joint postprocessing of bivariate wind‐vector components in Germany. Bivariate vine‐copula‐based models, a bivariate gradient‐boosted version of ensemble model output statistics (EMOS), and a bivariate distributional regression network (DRN) are compared with

A Method for Identifying Rainfall‐Runoff Events at Sub‐Hourly Time Scales: Applications for Nature‐Based Solutions and Water Resources

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how changes in catchment conditions affect ecohydrology in response to rainfall‐runoff events is crucial when developing informed strategies to enhance flow resilience, restore natural habitats, interpret water quality data or reduce flood risk.

On characterization of recursively enumerable languages in terms of linear languages and VW-grammars

open access: yesIndagationes Mathematicae (Proceedings), 1978
AbstractIt is proved that for any alphabet Σ there exist a homomorphism h, a deterministic minimal linear language L1 and a linear language L2 such that every recursively enumerable language R over Σ is of the form L = h(L1 ∩ L2 ∪ RL) for some regular language RL depending on L. Some other homomorphic characterizations are also presented.

Path‐Based Deep Reinforcement Learning for On‐Board Routing in Satellite Constellation Networks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient usage of available network resources is a crucial factor for broadband services in interconnected satellite constellations. To meet required quality of service standards under heavy network loads, it is essential to optimize traffic distribution among the intersatellite links. To address this challenge, we propose an adaptive traffic

Symbols of Climate Action: Audit Labor and the Production of Carbon Credits

open access: yesEconomic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary carbon markets (VCMs) are promoted as tools for financing climate mitigation, yet their effectiveness and credibility remain contested. This article examines how carbon credits are produced and destabilized as symbols of climate action, emphasizing the forms of ecological and audit labor that sustain their legitimacy.
