Revealing the Invisibility of Whiteness in Literary Studies
No full textThis chapter narrates the work of redefining the literary canon and decentering the white gaze by including a selection of authors that better represent the diversity of the American canon. The “white gaze”, which refers to the lens in which white, often colonial, perspectives dominate the narrative and interpret texts, has historically marginalized or misrepresented diverse identities and experiences. The chapter describes several antiracist actions that not only decenter the white gaze, but also (paradoxically) use texts by historically influential white authors to make visible to students whiteness and issues of race and racism. Two activities/assignments (“Identity Survey” and “Commonplace Book”) invited students to not only reflect on their intersecting identities, but to explore their relationship to content and concepts in literary studies. As its title suggests, the chapter reveals pedagogical activities that remove the invisibility of whiteness in literary studies. © 2026 selection and editorial matter, Jie Y.

On the Petrov type of a 4-manifold
No full textOn an oriented 4-manifold, we examine the geometry that arises when the curvature operator of a Riemannian or Lorentzian metric g commutes, not with its own Hodge star operator, but rather with that of another semi-Riemannian metric h that is a suitable deformation of g. We classify the case when one of these metrics is Riemannian and the other Lorentzian by generalizing the concept of Petrov Type from general relativity; the case when h is split-signature is also examined. The “generalized Petrov Types” so obtained relate to the critical points of g’s sectional curvature, and sometimes yield unique normal forms. They also carry topological information independent of the Hitchin–Thorpe inequality, and yield a direct geometric characterization of “almost-Einstein” metrics via the Ricci or sectional curvature of g. © World Scientific Publishing Company
CuBr2complexes with 3,5-disubstituted pyridine ligands
Get PDFReaction of copper(II) bromide with 3,5-dichloropyridine (3,5-Cl2py) or 3,5-dimethylpyridine (3,5-Me2py) led to the isolation of the coordination polymers catena-poly[[bis(3,5-dichloropyridine)copper(II)]-di-μ-bromido], [CuBr2(C5H3Cl2N)2]n or [CuBr2(3,5-Cl2py)2]n (1), and catena-poly[[bis(3,5-dimethylpyridine) copper(II)]-di-μ-bromido], [CuBr2(C7H9N)2]n or [CuBr2(3,5- Me2py)2]n (2), respectively. The structures are characterized by bibromidebridged chains [d(av.)Cu Cu = 3.93 (9) A ]. In 1, the chains are linked perpendicular to the a axis by non-classical hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds, while in 2, only non-classical hydrogen bonds are observed. © 2025 International Union of Crystallography.

GDP Manipulation, Cost of Equity, and Firm Performance
No full textWe use satellite night light data to estimate the extent of gross domestic product (GDP) manipulation in China and investigate the impact of such manipulation on local firms. Firms located in provinces with higher levels of GDP manipulation experience a higher cost of equity, lower investment efficiency, and weaker profit growth. Using a difference-in-difference test, we show that the cost of equity decreases and firm performance improves following unexpected turnovers of top government officials, which significantly reduces GDP manipulation. Additionally, our findings suggest that local firms may collude with government officials in costly data manipulation. We show that firms in provinces with higher levels of GDP manipulation receive more government subsidies, and that firms with lower pay–performance sensitivity (PPS) are more likely to collude. © 2025 John Wiley & Sons Ltd
