Advanced Science, EarlyView.An atomically precise platform was developed for investigating single‐molecule charge transport. This innovative platform enables the creation of highly uniform molecular devices using ruthenium‐based molecules. It reveals a significant enhancement in molecular conductance due to the metallic ruthenium center and a unique barrier‐lowering effect during

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Whole‐genome analysis of 1,054 chickens reveals three ancestral sources (NWC, SYA, and SHF) with distinct temporal entry patterns into the Tibetan Plateau. Route‐specific selection scans, calibrated against a demographic null, suggest complementary functional enrichments—vascular homeostasis (NWC), calcium signaling and cardiac adaptation (SYA), and ...

The South East Asian Journal of Management, 2013 While the positive productivity spillover from Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) to domestic owned firms in host countries is unequivocally emphasized in theory, the empirical evidence is contradictory.

Frontiers of Stochastically Nondominated Portfolios [PDF]
Econometrica, 2003 We consider the problem of constructing a portfolio of finitely many assets whose returns are described by a discrete joint distribution. We propose mean-risk models that are solvable by linear programming and generate portfolios whose returns are nondomi- nated in the sense of second-order stochastic dominance.

Advances and Perspectives in Graphene‐Based Quantum Dots Enabled Neuromorphic Devices
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Graphene‐based QDs are zero‐dimensional carbon nanomaterials with pronounced quantum confinement and tunable electronic structures. Herein, we summarize their synthesis strategies and functionalization methods, and highlight their functional roles and operating mechanisms in devices, as well as recent advances in neuromorphic electronics. We anticipate

Stochastic Frontier meets Breakdown Frontier
This paper studies sensitivity analysis of Stochastic Frontier Models. We elaborate relaxations of the baseline assumptions in the Stochastic Frontier Models and characterize the identified set under this relaxations. Furthermore, we derive the breakdown frontier for a relevant parameter of interest, the average inefficiency of a production unit.
