Towards Credible GHG Reporting: The Role of GHG Assurance and Assurance Providers in Firm Valuation

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
The demand for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disclosures is rising globally; yet, the credibility of such information remains uncertain when assurance is not mandated. Drawing on a sample of firms from 43 countries, this study examines the role of GHG assurance and the choice of assurance provider in the market value effects of GHG emissions.

Economic Freedom and Audit Fees: Evidence From the USA

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the association between US state‐level economic freedom and audit fees. We argue that economic freedom lowers clients' perceived business risk, thereby requiring reduced audit effort and exposing auditors to a lower probability of litigation risk, which enables auditors to charge lower audit fees to clients headquartered in states ...

Complete intersections in Stein manifolds

open access: yesManuscripta Mathematica, 1982
The purpose of this note is to prove some theorems on set theoretic complete intersections in Stein manifolds (or Stein spaces) which are analogous to results in affine algebraic geometry. Due to the Oka principle in Stein theory one gets stronger results.

Monetary Policy, Investor Sentiment and Stock Price Bubble: Evidence From China

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The empirical results indicate that an increase in interest rates may stimulate a significant and persistent stock price bubble, which is consistent with rational asset price bubble theory. This finding suggests that central banks should implement anti‐turbulent monetary policy with caution, since inappropriate tightening may unintentionally ...

Potential vs. Realized Large Carnivore Density: The Influence of Livestock on Carnivore Carrying Capacity Estimation

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an unfenced mixed‐use savanna landscape in Namibia, we compared realized densities of leopards and cheetahs estimated using spatial capture–recapture models with prey‐based carrying capacity predictions. Leopard densities exceeded predictions based on wild prey alone but closely matched livestock‐supplemented models, suggesting that vulnerable ...

School achievement in the Brazilian rural Amazon: An analysis of the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract A cross‐sectional study of 106 students (7–12 years) from a rural school in the Brazilian Amazon investigated the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors on school achievement using network analysis. Students with good school performance were significantly older and showed superior global physical fitness, motor ...

STEIN FILLINGS OF CONTACT 3-MANIFOLDS OBTAINED AS LEGENDRIAN SURGERIES

open access: yes, 2016
. In this note, we classify Stein fillings of an infinite family of contact 3-manifolds up to diffeomorphism. Some contact 3-manifolds in this family can be obtained by Legendrian surgeries on (S3, ξstd) along certain Legendrian 2-bridge knots.

Parabolic stein manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An open Riemann surface is called parabolic in case every bounded subharmonic function on it reduces to a constant. Several authors introduced seemingly different analogs of this notion for Stein manifolds of arbitrary dimension.
