Common purpose advantage: Reviving a managerial theory of the firm?

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary What is the most effective way to distribute organizational objectives across managers? While prior work suggests managers should each focus on a single objective, we draw on Barnard's original insights on corporate purpose to identify conditions when managers pursuing the full set of objectives is advantageous.

Social network dynamics under experimental manipulations of predation risk and food abundance in wild rock hyraxes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study combines replicated experimental manipulation, social network analysis, network permutations and meta‐analysis to disentangle active from spatially‐induced changes in animal network structure in the wild. It reveals that short‐term environmental changes primarily alter space use, with limited effects on social structure.

Leveraging transitive relations for crowdsourced joins [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2013 ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of Data, 2013
The development of crowdsourced query processing systems has recently attracted a significant attention in the database community. A variety of crowdsourced queries have been investigated. In this paper, we focus on the crowdsourced join query which aims to utilize humans to find all pairs of matching objects from two collections.

Towards an anthropology of acquisition: ‘How did you get that?’ Vers une anthropologie de l'acquisition : « Où as‐tu trouvé ça ? »

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The production‐distribution‐consumption triad has structured how anthropologists understand exchange for roughly a century. This article argues for expanding this triad to include an explicit focus on acquisition – the systems, processes, and practices of acquiring.

How to Make $T$-Transitive a Proximity Relation

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2009
Three ways to approximate a proximity relation R (i.e., a reflexive and symmetric fuzzy relation) by a T -transitive one where T is a continuous Archimedean t-norm are given. The first one aggregates the transitive closure R macr of R with a (maximal) T-transitive relation B contained in R .

Phase Transitions Related to the Pigeonhole Principle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Since Jeff Paris introduced them in the late seventies [Par78], densities turned out to be useful for studying independence results. Motivated by their simplicity and surprising strength we investigate the combinatorial complexity of two such densities which are strongly related to the pigeonhole principle.

Transitivity of The delta^n-Relation in Hypergroups [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Indonesian Mathematical Society, 2018
The $\delta^n$-relation was introduced by Leoreanu-Fotea et. al.\cite{130}. In this article, we introduce the concept of$\delta^{n}$-heart of a hypergroup and we determine necessary andsufficient conditions for the relation $\delta^{n}$ to betransitive. Moreover, we determine a family $P_{\sigma}(H)$ ofsubsets of a hypergroup $H$ and we give sufficient
