Towards Transformative Climate Governance: Capacities and Constraints for Local Government in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An emerging consensus calls for transformative climate governance. However, what instigates and sustains transformative pathways remains unclear. This study characterises the existence, quality and structural underpinnings of transformative governance capacities in local government climate change response in Aotearoa New Zealand, applying a ...

ON UNITARY REPRESENTATIONS OF ALGEBRAIC GROUPS OVER LOCAL FIELDS

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceLet G be an algebraic group over a local field k of characteristic zero. We show that the locally compact group G(k) consisting of the k-rational points of G is of type I.

Kuga–Satake Construction on Families of K3 Surfaces of Picard Rank 14

open access: yesMathematische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The isometry between the type IV6 and the type II4 hermitian symmetric domains suggests a possible relation between suitable moduli spaces of K3 surfaces of Picard rank 14 and of polarized abelian 8‐folds with totally definite quaternion multiplication. We show how this isometry induces a geometrically meaningful map between such moduli spaces

Conditions implying the uniqueness of the weak*-topology on certain group algebras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate possible preduals of the measure algebra M(G) of a locally compact group and the Fourier algebra A(G) of a separable compact group. Both of these algebras are canonically dual spaces and the canonical preduals make the multiplication ...

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

Representations of locally compact groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The topic of this thesis is representation theory. The idea of representation theory is to represent an algebraic object, such as a locally compact group or an algebra, as a more concrete group or algebra consisting of matrices or operators.

Dynamic Probit Models With Network Interdependence and Unobserved Heterogeneity With an Application to Multinational‐Firm Participation in China

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In many areas of regional/spatial economics, we are faced with analyzing discrete dynamic choice problems of economic agents interacting with some network structure through general equilibrium, input‐output links, or strategic interaction. Stochastic estimating equations for such problems can be difficult for many practitioners to estimate ...

Invariant Measure and Universality of the 2D Yang–Mills Langevin Dynamic

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 1973-2102, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We prove that the Yang–Mills (YM) measure for the trivial principal bundle over the two‐dimensional torus, with any connected, compact structure group, is invariant for the associated renormalised Langevin dynamic. Our argument relies on a combination of regularity structures, lattice gauge‐fixing and Bourgain's method for invariant measures ...
