Driven by AI: the influence of multiple factors on employee innovation behavior

Artificial intelligence (AI) reshapes work practices and employee innovative behavior. Drawing on Organizational Adaptation Theory (OAT) and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), this study proposes the “Cognition, Attitude, Ability and Collaboration” (CAAC) framework to explain...

How do government-guided funds enhance employment scale?: evidence from China

Drawing on prefecture-level panel data from 2007 to 2023 and government-guided fund data from the Zero2IPO Private Equity Database, this study employs a staggered difference-in-differences (DID) model to examine the impact of government-guided funds on regional employment, along...

Urban Expansion and Satellite–Administrative Divergence in Mongolia: Multi-Sensor Evidence from Ulaanbaatar and Pastoral Provinces

Urban monitoring in rapidly growing dryland cities is difficult because satellite signals and administrative records capture different aspects of settlement change and can perform differently across land-cover contexts. Mongolia provides a useful case because urban growth is conc...

External factors of hotel philanthropic giving: Peer effects and fiscal stress

This study investigates two underexplored external determinants of hotel corporate giving (CG): peer effects and fiscal stress. Drawing on institutional theory, we analyze panel data from publicly listed Chinese hotel companies (2003–2022) using Tobit regression models to accommo...

New $r$-Euler-Mahonian Statistics Involving Denert's Statistic

Recently, we proved the equidistribution of the pairs of permutation statistics $(r\textsf{des},r\textsf{maj})$ and $(r\textsf{exc},r\textsf{den})$. Recently, we proved the equidistribution of the pairs of permutation statistics $(r\textsf{des},r\textsf{maj})$ and $(r\textsf{exc}...

Optimal placement of viscous dampers in high-rise buildings using the target-oriented krill herd algorithm with a dynamic search mechanism

Optimal placement of viscous dampers is essential for enhancing the seismic performance of high-rise buildings. In this study, we propose a target-oriented krill herd algorithm with a dynamic search mechanism (DTOKH) to optimize the placement of viscous dampers in high-rise build...

Borrowed size, city functional division, and total factor productivity of firms: a study based on city clusters in China

Research indicates that a city’s total factor productivity (TFP) correlates with its size, with larger cities exhibiting higher TFP. However, some smaller cities can achieve high TFP by borrowing their size from surrounding cities, achieving the size necessary to support the bene...

Soil Carbon Recovery and Hydrological Buffering in Mongolian Rangelands: Local Benefits and Limits of Earth-System Connectivity

Soil organic carbon (SOC) restoration in degraded drylands is increasingly promoted for climate mitigation and hydrological co-benefits, yet the scale at which these benefits remain detectable remains uncertain. We therefore evaluate SOC recovery and its hydrological effects acro...
