abstract = {This paper examines how human capital (HC) outflows, triggered by economic sanctions imposed on Russia, constitute a profound environmental disruption with long-term consequences for firms. Drawing on HC theory and based on case studies of three companies in the Russian IT sector, the study analyzes how large-scale talent relocation, referred to as brain-drain, undermines firms' strategic investments in HC development. We find that in the face of sustained uncertainty, human resource (HR) managers adopt reactive approaches, leading to the widespread abandonment of professional development initiatives. We argue that this shift risks eroding orga- nizational capabilities and placing firms at a long-term competitive disadvantage. By moving beyond macro- economic discussions of sanctions and focusing on firm-level human resource management (HRM) responses, this study offers new theoretical insights into how geopolitical shocks reshape HRM practices and disrupt the un- derlying logic of HC investment in high-skill industries.},

We establish the local existence and uniqueness of solutions in the Sobolev space $H^m$, for $m  geq 3$ . We notice that in the incompressible case, the best known existence result requires $m  geq 5$, unless specific thermodynamic conditions are satisfied (their effect is to reduce the high nonlinearity of the model), in which case $m geq 3$ suffices.

Finally, we analyze the linearized system around the constant state and establish the global well-posedness of the solution, as well as its exponential decay in time toward the steady state. In addition, we prove the persistence of regularity for the solution.},

abstract = {Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has become a powerful tool for addressing fixed cost allocation (FCA) problems. Among the numerous DEA-based FCA studies, a significant category seeks to make all Decision-making Units (DMUs) efficient under a set of common weights after cost allocation, falling under the common-weights FCA framework. However, the classical DEA efficiency evaluation mechanism does not require all DMUs to be evaluated based on a set of common weights. Instead, a DMU is considered efficient if it can choose its favorable weights to achieve an efficiency score of one while ensuring that the efficiencies of other DMUs do not exceed one. Motivated by this, we develop a novel and general efficient FCA framework that allocates the total fixed cost by allowing each DMU to select its preferred weights to be efficient. We prove that the FCA possible set under the traditional common-weights framework is a subset of that under this new framework. Then, an Assurance Region (AR) constraint on fixed costs is introduced to avoid extreme allocation schemes. Moreover, an individual dominance realization strategy and a FCA model based on it are proposed within this framework, aimed at minimizing each DMU's cross-efficiencies from the perspective of all other DMUs while ensuring its self-assessed efficiency remains at one. Additionally, an algorithm is introduced to guarantee the uniqueness of the FCA scheme. A numerical example and a case study from the Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation are used to validate the effectiveness of this approach and compare it with other classic methods.},

Scholars have emphasized making consumers ecologically conscious in their consumption decisions. Likewise, it is vital to investigate the precursors that guide or serve as a road map for consumers to make wise choices. This study aims to examine the intricate interplay of motives (altruism, value consciousness and self-identity) that influence ethical consumption in Pakistan's hospitality industry. This study also assessed attitudes, ascribed responsibility as a mediator and environmental protection emotions as a boundary condition.

Design/methodology/approach



The data were collected from 522 individuals, and meticulous analysis was performed using structural equation modeling.

Findings



This study found that individuals with altruistic values and a high sense of self-identity are likelier to develop an attitude and take responsibility for ethical consumption. Moreover, the tendency of environmental protection moderates these relations.

Originality/value



This research employs the Value-Belief-Norm theory, offering novel insights for intellectuals to comprehend ethical consumption by exploring the psychological drivers that influence individuals to consume ethically, thereby enriching the literature.},

While each model independently delivers excellent performance on a variety of tasks, their integration leverages the complementary strengths of the CNNs' localized feature extraction capabilities and the Transformers' global attention mechanisms. Our proposed ConvNeXt-ViT hybrid solution was thoroughly evaluated on benchmark age estimation datasets, including MORPH II, CACD, and AFAD, and achieved superior performance in terms of mean absolute error (MAE). To address computational constraints, we leverage pre-trained models and systematically explore different configurations, using linear layers and advanced regularization techniques to optimize the architecture. Comprehensive ablation studies highlight the critical role of individual components and training strategies, and in particular emphasize the importance of adapted attention mechanisms within the CNN framework to improve the model's

focus on age-relevant facial features. The results show that the ConvNeXt-ViT hybrid not only outperforms traditional methods, but also provides a robust foundation for future advances in age estimation and related visual tasks. This work underscores the transformative potential of hybrid architectures and represents a promising direction for the seamless integration of CNNs and transformers to address complex computer vision challenges.},

In many applications, this class of fluid flows is challenging to numerically solve using the conventional monolithic methods. The proposed approach belongs to a family of viscosity-splitting methods and it separates the convection term from the incompressibility

constraint into two steps using the second-order implicit backward differentiation formula for the time integration. To ensure the stability of this method, we introduce a numerical scheme based on the scalar auxiliary

variable approach an efficient pressure incrementation is introduced using the scalar auxiliary variable approach. Unlike most projection methods for solving incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, the proposed method is free of any numerical inconsistencies generated by the treatment of boundary conditions in the pressure solution. A rigorous stability analysis is also carried out in this study and the proposed method is demonstrated to be consistent and stable with no restrictions on the time step. Numerical results are presented for three flow problems to validate the second-order convergence rates and to illustrate the performance of the proposed time-splitting scheme for unsteady

mation from various sources. It plays a crucial role in intelligent systems and finds extensive applications in 

fields such as computer vision, recommender systems, and natural language processing. With the increasing 

complexity and heterogeneity of real-world data, the integration of Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) in 

multi-view learning scenarios is becoming increasingly important. Despite the advances in GCNs, it remains a 

major challenge to effectively generalize models and improve their stability across different data views. In this 

paper, we present a novel framework, the Enhanced Triplet Loss Based Semi-Supervised Graph Convolutional 

Network for Multi-View Learning (MV-TriGCN), which addresses these challenges through three primary 

innovations. First, we propose an enhanced triplet loss for deep metric learning tailored to the hidden features 

of GCNs based on semi-hard negative sample selection. Second, view graphs are constructed using the classical 

KNN scheme and a semi-supervised flexible method to improve the diversity of data structure representation 

resulting in a more stable hypothesis space. Moreover, we learn an end-to-end multi-view GCN by merging all 

available graphs and utilizing the aggregated cross-entropy losses and deep metric losses. Finally, we introduce 

a stepwise training strategy that allows the model to adapt to the losses during different optimization phases. 

Extensive experiments show that our method outperforms existing state-of-the-art approaches in terms of  accuracy and stability},

Through a qualitative analysis of interviews with 22 supply chain (SC), operations, logistics, and procurement managers, the research identifies key paradoxes that emerge when pursuing social goals alongside circular and digital transformations. The study finds that pursuing CDSCs' goals alongside social sustainability objectives creates paradoxical tensions, such as conflicts between efficiency and fair labor practices, data privacy concerns, and the potential for power concentration within digital platforms. These tensions highlight the complexities of balancing competing objectives within CDSC operations. Moreover, the different managerial perspectives, such as SC, operational, logistics, and procurement, may prioritize different aspects of sustainability, leading to potential tensions. These tensions were categorized into four paradoxes: the paradox of progress, the paradox of efficiency, the paradox of control, and the paradox of governance. To manage these paradoxes, the findings highlight the importance of dynamic management, stakeholder engagement, transparency, innovation, and continuous learning. This should also be supported by holistic integration, which involves a unified, comprehensive approach to managing paradoxes in CDSCs, transitioning from separate functional strategies to a cohesive solution. This study contributes to understanding the complexities of social sustainability in CDSCs. It offers insights for practitioners and policymakers seeking to promote more responsible and sustainable SC practices.},

A quantum model for Markowitz portfolio optimization is presented that resolves this by embedding slack variables directly into the problem Hamiltonian. The method maps each slack variable to a dedicated ancilla qubit, transforming the problem into a Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) formulation suitable for the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA). This process internalizes the constraints within the quantum state, altering the problem's energy landscape to facilitate optimization. The model is empirically validated through simulation, showing it consistently finds the optimal portfolio where a standard penalty-based QAOA fails. This work demonstrates that modifying the Hamiltonian architecture via a slack-ancilla scheme provides a robust and effective pathway for solving constrained optimization problems on quantum computers. A fundamental quantum limit on the simultaneous precision of portfolio risk and return is also posited.},

The study's findings indicate a positive association between GHG emissions intensity and ESG performance, suggesting that higher emitting firms tend to bolster their ESG ratings chiefly through enhanced transparency and governance practices rather than through emissions reductions. R&D intensity and CLS also demonstrate positive associations with ESG performance, with powerful effects among firms with initially lower capabilities. Quantile regression results indicate that these relationships vary across performance levels; top-performing firms achieve a deeper level of sustainability integration, whereas lower performing firms rely more heavily on disclosure strategies.

To increase supervision information in semi-supervised learning, the self-training paradigm is often used, mainly in datasets with moderate sizes. On the other hand, the use of anchors was adopted with large datasets. In this research endeavor, we propose a novel framework for GSSL that leverages a novel self-training principle tailored for very large datasets, and introduces an advanced method for automatic graph construction using anchors. Our approach focuses on utilizing generated labels of random batches of unlabeled samples, subsequently incorporating these predictions into the training set to enhance the model's accuracy. Pseudo-labeling, a specific instance of self-training, assigns pseudo-labels to the most confidently predicted unlabeled examples, treating them as ground truth during the training phase. By constructing anchor-to-anchor affinity graphs that incorporate both feature and label information, our method facilitates robust learning on large-scale datasets. Through comprehensive experimentation across diverse large datasets, our approach demonstrates its efficacy in achieving scalable and reliable semi-supervised learning outcomes. These findings represent a significant advancement in the field of GSSL, with wide-ranging implications for various applications across different domains. Our method not only addresses the scalability issue but also ensures the effective integration of both labeled and pseudo labeled data, thereby enhancing the overall learning process.},

abstract = {Natural fibres are well known for their high efficiency in evaporation and humidification applications, making them a promising solution for cooling processes during heat waves. Mimicking the evapotranspiration mechanisms of trees is essential for designing optimal fibre wicks in canopy-like devices. Such devices are designed by their capillary rising height and water storage capacity. This study examines the water retention properties and capillary rise height of various yarns: retention tests for surface properties and tomographies for topographical aspects are combined to explain observed water rising height in samples. Tomographic analyses document pore sizes, fibre diameters, and water distribution within the wicks. Water retention properties among the samples range from less than 10% to over 20% of dry mass, reflecting significant wettability differences. However, the ultimate height of water ascension primarily depends on the structural yarn properties. Repeated tomographic scans during the rise reveal that water initially ascends in fibre-dense regions. The competition between capillary and tensile forces causes displacements, redistributing fibre densities. In plant fibres, swelling amplifies these displacements and propagates them along the wick axis. Water envelops individual fibres or bundles, penetrating into the lumens. The size of wet lumens increases due to internal capillary pressure, which is influenced by the convexity of the internal walls. This pressure drives a creeping progression of the water front along the fibre axis. The study finds that a high number of strings with intermediate porosities, which accommodate swelling, enhances the capillary rise height. However, further research is needed to fully understand the role of lumens. While they provide additional water storage capacity and facilitate capillary action through small diameters, they may also reduce the flow rate of water ascent.},

less likely to engage in real earnings management, supporting the ethical theoretical perspective. However, waste-recycling

activities positively influence real earnings management due to the high costs of recycling processes. Additionally, we show that

the negative effect of waste reduction on real earnings management is only prevalent in companies with low agency costs, those

with high corporate governance quality, and those operating in non-competitive markets. These findings highlight the broader

implications of corporate waste management for financial reporting quality. By focusing solely on real earnings management,

this study opens new avenues via which future research can explore other dimensions of financial reporting quality and examine

evolving regulatory frameworks.},

This paper aimed to investigate the impact of individual and organizational antecedents and their interactions on a firm's absorptive capacity (ACAP) based on Coleman's (1990) framework.

Design/methodology/approach



We used multilevel structural equation modeling based on 135 top managers and 307 core knowledge employees from 135 Tunisian companies in the chemical and electrical, electronic and appliance sectors.

Findings



The results show that flexibility-oriented human resource management (HRM) systems are positively associated with ACAP at the organizational level, suggesting that there is a micro-level process underlying this relationship. The results also show that flexibility-oriented HRM systems positively impact extrinsic motivation, which, in turn, fosters creative behavior, further boosting ACAP. Finally, extrinsic motivation and creative behavior mediate the relationship between flexibility-oriented HRM systems and ACAP.

Originality/value



This study provides new insights into the relationship between flexibility-oriented HRM systems and ACAP, highlighting the essential microfoundations that underlie organizational ACAP, i.e. creative behavior and extrinsic motivation. It is one of the first empirical investigations to validate Coleman's (1990) multilevel framework for understanding organizational ACAP.},

We empirically show that in all seven portfolio combinations, the augmented portfolio is not spanned by the traditional one. Our results are further confirmed by both parametric and non-parametric tests in an out-of-sample setting. Traditional investors face opportunity cost of up to 0.77% per month by not switching to an augmented portfolio including alternative asset classes. Additional analysis demonstrates that diversification benefits are stronger for times of declining economy and financial markets.},

Investigation of returnees receives much attention in management as due to obtaining international human and social capital, returnees contribute to economic and non-economic performance, internationalization, corporate social responsibility activities, social change, innovativeness, and competitive advantage of companies where those returnees work. Returnees' effect on innovative capabilities, i.e. antecedents of innovativeness, is dependent on the extent to which these individuals can share their knowledge and experience. The paper aims to investigate the role of talent management (TM) practices for returnees in shaping firms' innovative capabilities.

Design/methodology/approach



Drawing from the knowledge-based view of the firm and dynamic capabilities theory, the authors use a sample of 80 companies with returnee employees to empirically test the hypotheses.

Findings



The authors show that attraction, development and retention practices aimed at returnees are positively associated with innovative capabilities and innovativeness of companies. Moreover, TM for returnees moderates the relationship between innovative capabilities and innovativeness in firms with returnee employees.

Originality/value



The authors provide statistical evidence of TM practices as a mechanism through which highly skilled returnees impact organizational outcomes in the context of emerging economies. As highly skilled returnees may be considered talents, a TM system may facilitate knowledge sharing and eliminate possible issues in cross-cultural adaptation and integration.},

abstract = {Nonlocal games play a crucial role in quantum information theory and have numerous applications in certification and cryptographic protocols. Kalai et al. (STOC 2023) introduced a procedure to compile a nonlocal game into a single-prover interactive proof, using a quantum homomorphic encryption scheme, and showed that their compilation method preserves the classical bound of the game. Natarajan and Zhang (FOCS 2023) then showed that the quantum bound is preserved for the specific case of the CHSH game. Extending the proof techniques of Natarajan and Zhang, we show that the compilation procedure of Kalai et al. preserves the quantum bound for two classes of games: bipartite XOR games and a higher dimensional generalization of CHSH (the SATWAP inequality), that we refer to as d-outcome CHSH games. We also establish that, for any pair of qubit measurements, there exists a compiled XOR game such that its near-optimal winning probability serves as a robust selftest for that particular pair of measurements. Finally, we derive computational self-testing of three anticommuting qubit observables, based on the compilation of the nonlocal game corresponding to the so-called elegant Bell inequality.},

This panel report synthesizes insights from a scholarly panel held at ICTO 2025 that convened the model's co-creator and experts in AI, digital transformation, user behavior, governance, and sustainability to reimagine the model's future evolution. We first recount the model's foundations, then examine how contemporary societal, technological, political, and environmental forces challenge its traditional formulation. The panel discussion revealed both consensus and healthy tensions: panelists agreed the six core dimensions of success remain largely timeless, yet underscored the need to adapt how these dimensions are defined and measured considering new realities. We highlight emerging themes such as the criticality of human-centric design to ensure information quality and trust in AI systems, the reconceptualization of ?use? and ?user satisfaction? as rich user experience constructs encompassing enjoyment and well-being, the incorporation of negative outcomes as part of success evaluation, and the broadening of ?net benefits? to include societal and environmental impacts. We discuss how the panel's insights extend recent literature, including new measures for social IS success and frameworks for multi-stakeholder value. We also outline directions for future research.},

abstract = {Finding an available parking space remains a significant challenge, particularly in major international cities, where rapid population growth and increasing traffic congestion exacerbate this problem. To address this issue, numerous sensor-based systems have been developed to manage parking infrastructures. However, these systems are often expensive and impractical because their sensors are susceptible to damage from adverse weather conditions. Consequently, in-vehicle camera-based parking-slot detection methods have emerged as more effective and scalable alternatives. Rapid advances in artificial intelligence in recent decades have facilitated the development of diverse methods and tools for autonomous parking detection. This systematic review examines state-of-the-art parking detection techniques, including image processing, machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning approaches. It considers various imaging perspectives such as the driver's point of view, bird's-eye view, and around-view monitoring (AVM). The reviewed methods are evaluated using widely adopted benchmark datasets, with a focus on their performance in identifying parking slots and determining the occupancy status. Key challenges, including real-time implementation constraints and performance robustness across diverse environmental conditions, were critically analyzed. The findings suggest that hybrid models that integrate reinforcement learning with supervised learning hold substantial promise for future research and applications. This study offers a comprehensive assessment of current methodologies, identifies persistent research gaps, and proposes actionable recommendations to advance the development of robust autonomous parking detection systems.},
