The Distinctness of Objects Near and Far

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 112, Issue 2, Page 406-420, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Philosophers working on the metaphysics of persistence typically do not extend their views to the distinctness of objects at a single time. I argue that we can provide criteria to distinguish objects across time if and only if we can provide criteria to distinguish objects at a time. Furthermore, I endorse a stronger claim.

Partnering With Peer‐Endorsed Cities: Unpacking the Role of Peer Choices in Interlocal Collaboration

Public Administration Review, Volume 86, Issue 2, Page 459-473, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Partner selection is critical for interlocal collaboration. However, governments often face challenges in identifying suitable partners, which can undermine the potential gains of collaboration. While previous studies suggest that conforming to peers can reduce uncertainty in decision‐making, its role in partner selection remains underexplored.

In opposition to alethic views of moral responsibility

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, Volume 64, Issue 1, Page 85-103, March 2026.
Abstract A standard analysis of moral responsibility states that an agent A is morally responsible for φ‐ing if and only if it is fitting to have—depending on the nature of φ—a negative or positive reactive emotion vis‐à‐vis A on account of A's φ‐ing. Proponents of Alethic views of moral responsibility maintain that the relevant notion of fittingness ...

The saturation number for the diamond is linear

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract For a fixed poset P$\mathcal {P}$ we say that a family F⊆P([n])$\mathcal {F}\subseteq \mathcal {P}([n])$ is P$\mathcal {P}$‐saturated if it does not contain an induced copy of P$\mathcal {P}$, but whenever we add a new set to F$\mathcal {F}$, we form an induced copy of P$\mathcal {P}$.

On universal‐homogeneous hyperbolic graphs and spaces and their isometry groups

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Urysohn space is the unique separable metric space that is universal and homogeneous for finite metric spaces, that is, it embeds any finite metric space any isometry between finite subspaces extends to an isometry of the whole space. We here consider the existence of a universal‐homogeneous hyperbolic space. We show that for δ>0$\delta >0$
