The common good in business ethics: disentangling a crucial concept
Purpose This paper aims to examine how the notion of the common good has evolved within the social sciences, with a particular focus on its application in business ethics and corporate social responsibility. Although scholars often cite the concept, they frequently use it ambiguo...

Reversible Oxygen Redoxin High Voltage for Lithium-RichLayered Oxides
Abstract Lithium-rich layered oxides, characterized by Li ions in the transition-metal layers, can significantly increase battery energy density through the introduction of oxygen redox. However, these cathodes often suffer from substantial voltage hysteresis, leading to a consid...

Rethinking Transparency in Artificial Intelligence: From Definitions to Functions
Transparency has become one of the defining principles of contemporary artificial intelligence governance, appearing throughout legislation, standards, regulatory frameworks, and ethical guidelines. Yet despite this widespread consensus, AI transparency remains conceptually unsta...

Anomalies of NetPrimary Productivity under CompoundMarine Heatwaves and Microplastics
Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHW) and microplastics (MPs) pollution increasingly co-occur, yet the response of phytoplankton net primary production (NPP) to this compound condition remains incompletely characterized, in part because analyses confined to local conditions may overloo...

A Geometric Model of SU(2) via the Three‑Leaf Lemniscate and a Derivation of the Jacobi Identity
This paper presents a geometric model of SU(2) using a three‑leaf lemniscate. The trifolium’s orientation space forms S3, its infinitesimal rotations reproduce su(2), and the Jacobi identity arises naturally from the structure’s inherent 120∘ cyclic symmetry.
