Computing generating functions of ordered partitions with the transfer-matrix method [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
An ordered partition of $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ is a sequence of disjoint and nonempty subsets, called blocks, whose union is $[n]$. The aim of this paper is to compute some generating functions of ordered partitions by the transfer-matrix method.

The Widening Scope of Just Transitions Research: A Review of an Emblematic Concept

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The attention paid to justice dimensions in societal change toward decarbonization and resilience is growing in sustainability governance and research. “Just transition” is emerging as an emblematic concept in these discussions, yet there has been limited systematic stock‐taking of the major strands of research in this area. This paper aims to

Exchanging data between computational fluid dynamic and thermodynamic models for improving numerical analysis of Stirling engines

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2021
In a numerical analysis of a Stirling engine, the thermal and flow fields in the cylinder are three‐dimensional and periodically varying. Therefore, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis may provide detailed solution but it takes a long ...

The $t$-successive associated Stirling numbers, $t$-Fibonacci--Stirling numbers, and unimodality

open access: yesTURKISH JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS, 2017
Summary: Using a combinatorial approach, we introduce the \(t\)-successive associated Stirling numbers, and we give the recurrence relation and the generating function. We also establish the unimodality of sequence \(\left\{\frac{n-2k}{k}\right\}_{k}\) lying over a ray of the Stirling triangle of the second kind. Some combinatorial identities are given.

Appraising Policies Through Social Multi‐Criteria Evaluation: Lessons From a Systematic Review of Applications

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to renewed interest in analytical tools that address complex policy problems and move beyond linear‐rational approaches in policy appraisal, Social Multi‐Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) integrates participatory approaches with multi‐criteria analysis (MCA), thereby incorporating specialised knowledge and diverse social values and ...

Navigating ESG in the Artificial Intelligence Era: Evidence From AI Pilot Zones in China

open access: yesInternational Studies of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence is reshaping business models, but limited literature explores how ESG evolves in the AI era. This paper regards AI Pilot Zones in China as a quasi‐natural experiment, and adopts the DID approach to investigate its impact on corporate ESG performance. Using the sample of Chinese A‐share listed companies from 2016 to 2022,

BAXTER ALGEBRAS, STIRLING NUMBERS AND PARTITIONS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Algebra and Its Applications, 2005
Recent developments of Baxter algebras have led to applications to combinatorics, number theory and mathematical physics. We relate Baxter algebras to Stirling numbers of the first and the second kinds, partitions and multinomial coefficients. This allows us to apply congruences from number theory to obtain congruences in Baxter algebras.

The prevalence of food insecurity and its relationship with wellbeing in a large, cross‐sectional study of children and young people in England

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
AbstractBackgroundWe aimed to assess the prevalence of food insecurity reported by children and young people in four areas of England in 2023 and examine its association with mental health and wellbeing.MethodsWe used data from the OxWell student survey, a large, diverse, cross‐sectional study of 38,430 students aged 8–19 years, conducted primarily in ...
