Heterogeneous r-Stirling numbers via boson operators

Open Physics
This paper investigates the properties and operator-theoretic representations of the heterogeneous r-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind. Building upon the recent introduction of heterogeneous Stirling sequences, we extend these concepts to the

Looking for hopeful purpose in England's environmental education policy: An analysis of the National Education Nature Park

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The intertwined crises of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental degradation represent profound global challenges. Education holds a unique role in enabling all young people to navigate uncertainty, participate meaningfully in decision‐making and contribute to more just and sustainable ways of living.

Probabilistic multi-Stirling numbers of the second kind associated with random variables

Applied Mathematics in Science and Engineering
This paper investigates a probabilistic extension of the multi-Stirling numbers of the second kind and a ‘poly' version of the probabilistic degenerate Lah-Bell polynomials.

Generalized Binomial Convolution of the mth Powers of the Consecutive Integers with the General Fibonacci Sequence

Demonstratio Mathematica, 2016
In this paper, we consider Gauthier’s generalized convolution and then define its binomial analogue as well as alternating binomial analogue. We formulate these convolutions and give some applications of them.

Paying for Privilege: How Political Contributions Undermine Environmental Sustainability—And How Executive Contracting Can Restore Balance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We are interested in investigating whether firms use political donations as a license to neglect environmental sustainability. We further deepen the examination by exploring the role of executive contracting. Drawing on a wide range of data between 2002 and 2021 and a global sample, our findings confirm that firms use political contributions ...

Sum rules for permutations with fixed points involving Stirling numbers of the first kind

Indonesian Journal of Combinatorics
We propose sum rules for permutations pn(k) of the ensemble {1,2,...,n} with k fixed points, in the form of partial sums of their moments. The corresponding identities involve Stirling numbers of the first kind s(q,r).

From Responsibility to Resilience to Social Innovation: A Cyclical Theory of Responsible Networked Resilience in External Crises

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT External crises unsettle resources, routines, and what responsible action means. Prior research links CSR to stakeholder support and resilience. Yet these relationships remain fragmented, leaving mechanisms connecting responsibility, inter‐organizational cooperation, resilience, social innovation, and renewed responsibility expectations under ...
