Repelled Point Processes With Application to Numerical Integration
Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 1101-1133, September 2026.ABSTRACT We look at Monte Carlo numerical integration from a stochastic geometry point of view. While crude Monte Carlo estimators relate to linear statistics of a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), linear statistics of more regularly spread point processes can yield unbiased estimators with faster‐decaying variance, and thus lower integration ...

Eligible but Not Entitled: The Distinctiveness of Non‐Entitlement Policy Designs at the Frontline
Social Policy &Administration, Volume 60, Issue 5, Page 810-819, September 2026.ABSTRACT This paper explores the distinctive dynamics of entitlement versus non‐entitlement social programmes, focusing on how this distinction influences frontline workers' management of access to social provisions. While much of the existing literature emphasises the macro‐level impacts of these alternative policy designs, this study focuses on their

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1760-1778, August 2026.ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Invariant Measure and Universality of the 2D Yang–Mills Langevin Dynamic
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 1973-2102, August 2026.ABSTRACT We prove that the Yang–Mills (YM) measure for the trivial principal bundle over the two‐dimensional torus, with any connected, compact structure group, is invariant for the associated renormalised Langevin dynamic. Our argument relies on a combination of regularity structures, lattice gauge‐fixing and Bourgain's method for invariant measures ...
