Rational points on even‐dimensional Fermat cubics
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract We show that even‐dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic not equal to three, by constructing explicit rational parameterizations with polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our rationality constructions, we obtain estimates for the number of their rational points over a number field and ...

Perseverance Without Progress: Systemic Conditions of Climate Governance
Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Global climate governance has produced ambitious agreements and extensive policy frameworks, yet decisive action remains out of reach. Emissions continue to overshoot Paris targets, and warnings of accelerating risks persist. This paradox—ongoing activity alongside a sense of insufficiency—raises a deeper question: Why do governance failures ...

From Everyman to Hamlet: A Distant Reading
Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 378-443, June 2026.Abstract The sixteenth century sees English drama move from Everyman to Hamlet: from religious to secular subject matter and from personified abstractions to characters bearing proper names. Most modern scholarship has explained this transformation in terms originating in the work of Jacob Burckhardt: concern with religion and a taste for ...

Interaction of Structured Light With Nanostructured Matter
Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 9, 13 May 2026.Structured light–matter interactions at the nanoscale remain poorly understood. We reveal a symmetry‐matched mechanism governing orbital‐angular‐momentum‐dependent extinction in gold nanodisk oligomers. Tailored diffractive optical elements generate flower‐like beams whose rotational symmetry dictates absorption. Experiments and a semi‐analytical model

Narrating Entanglement Without Dehumanisation in Contemporary Eco‐Fiction
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT This essay presents a comparative analysis of two contemporary works of eco‐fiction, Richard Powers's The Overstory (2018) and Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood (2023). Both novels use multiperspective narration in the service of entanglement narratives, forms of storytelling that emphasise the interconnection of human and nonhuman life.

Alignment of the Starlings: Learning With Generative AI
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT I will argue that answers to normative questions concerning the place of generative AI in learning rest on answers to ontological questions regarding (1) precisely what is happening when a human ‘interacts’ with generative AI and (2) What is distinctive about organic learning as opposed to currently existing ‘machine learning’ (3) What is the ...

Yes, Friendship and Love Can Be Bought and Sold
Journal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 549-569, May 2026.ABSTRACT Can friendship and love be bought and sold? I argue yes, contrary to philosophical consensus. The prevailing view rests on the common error of over‐reliance on idealized conceptions of friendship and love that bear little resemblance to actual relationships.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 868-888, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT George Herbert Mead is an oft forgotten or ignored American philosopher who was one of the originators of pragmatism. Today, he is recognised as a creative thinker who has teased out knotty problems that others in the field had not realised were problems. Understanding Mead's analysis has been made difficult because he died prematurely without
