Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the growing research on sustainability, exactly how sustainability and trade credits are linked in the supply chain (SC) is still unclear. Therefore, this study aims to bridge this gap by examining how both supplier and retailer sustainability‐linked strategies and investment decisions influence trade credit terms, inventory decisions,

Can Supply Chain Integration Mitigate the Risks inherent in Circular Economy Transition?
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Italian furniture industry increasingly adopts circular economy (CE) practices to address sustainability challenges. However, CE implementation introduces specific risks related to supply chain fragmentation, traceability issues and consumer resistance to sustainable materials.

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There is strong evidence that design for remanufacturing (DfRem) can reduce initial‐design carbon emissions by up to 30%, and that product design can critically affect remanufacturing feasibility, yet academic adoption of DfRem remains limited.

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines consumer purchase intentions for a sofa produced through industrial symbiosis (IS), utilizing recycled textiles and fibers. As a high‐investment product, the IS sofa requires a significant financial commitment and involves complex decision‐making, an area less studied compared with other sustainable goods categories.

Investor Perception of ESG in Earnings Calls
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how the communicator's role and the framing of ESG statements affect investor capital allocation in the context of earnings calls. Based on a virtual asset market experiment, the analysis identifies that the assurance and reinforcement of ESG messages have a positive effect of up to 8% on capital allocation, with especially

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Several authors have reported the disconnection between the skills, abilities, and attitudes of graduates from STEM careers with the current needs of the labour market. In science and engineering fields, research has found the need for interdisciplinary approaches that encourage meaningful learning.

Equivariant toric geometry and Euler–Maclaurin formulae
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.Abstract We first investigate torus‐equivariant motivic characteristic classes of toric varieties, and then apply them via the equivariant Riemann–Roch formalism to prove very general Euler–Maclaurin‐type formulae for full‐dimensional simple lattice polytopes.

Ghost effect from Boltzmann theory
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.Abstract Taking place naturally in a gas subject to a given wall temperature distribution, the “ghost effect” exhibits a rare kinetic effect beyond the prediction of classical fluid theory and Fourier law in such a classical problem in physics. As the Knudsen number ε$\varepsilon$ goes to zero, the finite variation of temperature in the bulk is ...

Semiclassical inequalities for Dirichlet and Neumann Laplacians on convex domains
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.Abstract We are interested in inequalities that bound the Riesz means of the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet and Neumann Laplacians in terms of their semiclassical counterpart. We show that the classical inequalities of Berezin–Li–Yau and Kröger, valid for Riesz exponents γ≥1$\gamma \ge 1$, extend to certain values γ<1$\gamma <1$, provided the underlying ...
