Which institutional investors drive corporate sustainability? A systematic literature review
Abstract In this article, we review recent archival research (66 studies) on the influence of institutional ownership (IO) heterogeneity on corporate sustainability. Relying on an agency‐theoretical framework, we differentiate between various types of IO and their nature.

A primer on Higgs Effective Field Theory with Geometry [PDF]
These lecture notes, prepared for the 2022 QUC summer school at KIAS, provide an introduction to Higgs Effective Field Theory and the use of field geometry in Quantum Field Theory. While not sounding the depths of any of these topics, we will cover and give a sense of the inner workings of: the action for Goldstone bosons, the independence of ...

Navigating value networks to co‐create sustainable business models: An actionable staging approach
Abstract Sustainable transitions typically require collaboration between multiple actors in the value chain or value network. Recent research has emphasized mapping of stakeholders and values as a starting point for identifying opportunities to realign these relationships, followed by business model experimentation to enable change.

Learning domain-invariant classifiers for infant cry sounds [PDF]
The issue of domain shift remains a problematic phenomenon in most real-world datasets and clinical audio is no exception. In this work, we study the nature of domain shift in a clinical database of infant cry sounds acquired across different geographies.

Creating social and environmental value through integrated thinking: International evidence
Abstract Integrated thinking (IT) is a managerial mindset increasingly discussed in the context of value creation. Through the lens of systems theory, this study examines how the degree to which IT is embedded in a firm's strategy and day‐to‐day business processes is associated with the firm's social and environmental value creation.

Hong Kong' senior geography curriculum has included GIS since the early 2000s. However, GIS in secondary schools does not play a significant role in Hong Kong secondary geography education. Analyzing GIS benefits by literature review, it is believed that GIS should be included in both the senior and junior geography curriculum. Moreover, the literature

Geography of symplectic 4-manifolds with Kodaira dimension one [PDF]
The geography problem is usually stated for simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds. When the first cohomology is nontrivial, however, one can restate the problem taking into account how close the symplectic manifold is to satisfying the conclusion of the Hard Lefschetz Theorem, which is measured by a nonnegative integer called the degeneracy.
