This paper challenges the common belief that wine tourism drives export demand by analyzing Madeira wine shipments and finding no stable statistical evidence that overnight stays by visitors lead to increased wine purchases in their home countries.
This paper presents a novel QUBO-based framework using Japanese municipal data to model and optimize social indicator configurations for working-age population growth, demonstrating that quantum and classical annealing methods can identify optimal policy scenarios while capturing nonlinear indicator interactions in an interpretable manner.
This study utilizes the DREAMpy model to demonstrate that the ex-ante adoption of genetically engineered sorghum in Elgeyo Marakwet County is a highly profitable investment, yielding an estimated net present value of USD 9.69 million and significantly enhancing both producer incomes and consumer welfare.
This paper introduces "claimant congestion" as a mechanism linking financing structures to productive performance in state-owned mining, using a calibrated model of Codelco (2009–2025) to demonstrate that while minority capitalization can enhance governance, it creates a finite public-value boundary where excessive leverage or unmanaged stakeholder claims reduce net public returns, thereby supporting staged capitalization and ring-fenced project equity as optimal strategies.
This article argues that in high-income democracies, economic freedom does not automatically enhance democratic quality, as its positive effects are contingent on low corruption and informality, which otherwise signal institutional fragility and unequal access.
This study of Vietnamese listed firms (2020–2024) finds that while higher state ownership correlates with fewer disclosure violations, the adoption of formal audit committees does not significantly alter this relationship, suggesting that state-linked firms rely on alternative institutional monitoring configurations rather than standard board-centered oversight to ensure accountability.
This paper presents a systematic literature review of 19 studies (2015–2024) on climate risk integration in portfolio construction, revealing a research bias toward transition risks over physical risks, synthesizing current methodologies and governance frameworks into a unified conceptual model, and proposing a future research agenda to guide investors and policymakers.
This paper proposes Smoothing Rank Scale Gradient Descent (SRSGD), a novel optimization framework that transforms the discrete loss function of threshold-based financial crime detection into a continuous one via sigmoid approximation and rank-scale transformation, achieving a 4000-fold computational speedup and superior human resource savings while maintaining regulatory-compliant recall.
This study on the Seoul metropolitan area reveals that while commuters exhibit a significant "underground-space penalty" requiring substantial time savings to offset, the viability of underground expressways depends more on credible performance delivery regarding safety and reliability than on toll levels alone.
This study analyzes the spatial network structure and influencing factors of tourism economic resilience across 39 cities in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River Basin from 2010 to 2024, revealing a "core-periphery" hierarchical network driven by population mobility, geographical proximity, economic disparities, and resource endowments, while offering policy recommendations to enhance regional resilience.
