Turner‚ Bird‚ Eratosthenes: the eternal burning thread by Gibbons, J

“…He observed that most programs are already structurally recursive or corecursive, therefore guaranteed respectively terminating or productive; he conjectured that “with more practice we will find this is always true”. We explore Bird’s circular Sieve of Eratosthenes as a challenge problem for Turner’s Total Functional Programming.…”

The effect of inter-municipal cooperation on social assistance programs: evidence from housing allowances in England by Elston, T, Bel, G, Wang, H

“…Using coarsened exact matching and stacked difference-in-differences estimators, we find no evidence of short-term savings after cooperation, and only weak indications thereafter. …”

Can solar water kiosks generate sustainable revenue streams for rural water services? by Wagner, J, Merner, S, Innocenti, S, Geling, A, Hope, R

“…Average revenues increase four-fold indicating stronger financial performance with solar kiosks. In contrast, we find no significant increase in the volume of water people use when a handpump is upgraded to a solar kiosk. …”

Unveiling the importance of longer paths in quantum networks by Hu, X, Dong, G, Lambiotte, R, Christensen, K, Fan, J, Tian, Z, Havlin, S, Meng, X

“…Here, we apply statistical physics to identify the origin of this stronger connectivity—known as concurrence percolation. Our finding is demonstrated on hierarchical scale-free networks, the (U,V) flowers, which allow full analytical control over path connectivity by adjusting the two distinct path length scales, U ≤ V. …”

Can large language model agents simulate human trust behaviors? by Xie, C, Chen, C, Jia, F, Ye, Z, Shu, K, Bibi, A, Hu, Z, Torr, P, Ghanem, B, Li, G

“…In this paper, we focus on one of the most critical behaviors in human interactions, trust, and aim to investigate whether or not LLM agents can simulate human trust behaviors. We first find that LLM agents generally exhibit trust behaviors, referred to as agent trust, under the framework of Trust Games, which are widely recognized in behavioral economics. …”

Optimal mobility and communication strategy to maximize the value of information in IoT networks by Wang, Z, Badiu, M-A, Coon, JP

“…We formulate this optimisation problem as a Markov decision process, and propose a reinforcement learning-based algorithm to find the VoIaware mobility and communication strategy efficiently. …”

Problems of the public good in higher education: building the common amid sovereign individualism, capital and the state by Marginson, S

“…Anglophone societies in which the sovereign individual is primary vis and vis social relations, and policy focuses on economic competition and consumption in education, find it hard to grasp non-pecuniary outcomes in higher education. …”

Quantifying the Evolutionary Dynamics of Structure and Content in Closely Related E. coli Genomes by Molari, M, Shaw, LP, Neher, RA

“…Within this diversity, we find 22 modifications to core genome synteny and estimate around 2,000 structural changes within the accessory genome, i.e. one structural change for every three core genome substitutions. …”

Forecasting green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) landing in Sarawak using grey model by Abang Mohammad Hudzaifah Abang Shakawi, Ani Shabri, Ruhana Hassan

“…The model also suggested that the current conditions will likely increase turtle landings. This approach will find useful applications in evaluating the conservation status of the species.…”

Modelling the impact of testing, contact tracing and household quarantine on second waves of COVID-19 by Aleta, Alberto, Martín-Corral, David, Pastore y Piontti, Ana, Ajelli, Marco, Litvinova, Maria, Chinazzi, Matteo, Dean, Natalie E., Halloran, M. Elizabeth, Longini Jr, Ira M., Merler, Stefano, Pentland, Alex, Vespignani, Alessandro, Moro, Esteban, Moreno, Yamir

“…Here we integrate anonymized, geolocalized mobility data with census and demographic data to build a detailed agent-based model of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission in the Boston metropolitan area. We find that a period of strict social distancing followed by a robust level of testing, contact-tracing and household quarantine could keep the disease within the capacity of the healthcare system while enabling the reopening of economic activities. …”
