On the spectrum and support theory of a finite tensor category by Nakano, Daniel K., Vashaw, Kent B., Yakimov, Milen T.

“…Our main result is the construction of a continuous map from the noncommutative Balmer spectrum of an arbitrary FTC, , to the of the categorical center and a theorem that this map is surjective under a weaker finite generation assumption for than the one conjectured by Etingof–Ostrik. We conjecture that, for all FTCs, (i) the map is a homeomorphism and (ii) the two-sided thick ideals of are classified by the specialization closed subsets of . …”

Optimization in liner industry with new sulphur cap regulation by Yan, Zirui

“…To meet the fixed schedule and certain demand, there could be more than twenty vessels deployed in one service. For a big container shipping companies such as Maersk, they operate dozens of services and hundreds of vessels, so it is too costly and risky to adopt only one option for all the vessels in order to comply with the low sulphur regulation. …”
