Studies suggest that graduate start-up outcomes are linked to resources invested in a university’s ‘teaching’ mission, such as entrepreneurial education and training. However, results remain mixed and associational. This paper therefore asks whether increased university teaching focus causes an increase in graduate start-up creation and turnover. Using data from the Higher Education – Business and Community Interaction survey from 2008/09 to 2014/15, this paper exploits the 2012 tuition fee reform in England to proxy for an increased focus on English universities’ teaching missions and estimates a difference-in-differences model with Scottish universities as a control. The results show that after the reform, there was a significant increase in English graduate start-up creation compared to Scotland. The result is not driven by elite or London-based institutions. However, the effect loses significance in an uncontrolled specification from 2008/09 to 2024/25. There is also largely no evidence of an effect on graduate-start up turnover throughout.

It tests the question by auditing six UK policy decisions taken since 2021 against the security criteria their own public justifications invoked. Energy security is measured through availability, affordability, diversity, reliability and resilience. Trade security is measured through market access, partner diversification, exposure to unilateral discretion and stability of terms, drawing on Hirschman and on Farrell and Newman’s work on weaponised interdependence. Five of the six policies fail their own test. The ban on Russian energy imports removed a small exposure but did nothing about the mechanism that passed the 2022 price shock on to British consumers. North Sea licensing is defended on security grounds by both its supporters and its opponents, yet neither position delivers the price security claimed. The UK holds roughly 12 days of gas storage, compared with 89 in Germany and 103 in France, and this drew no significant policy response. Meanwhile the United States now supplies 76% of UK LNG imports and takes 21.7% of UK exports, a concentration that has received almost no security scrutiny. The project concludes that security language in UK economic policy works mainly as a justification attached to decisions made on alliance, environmental or domestic political grounds. It proposes that any economic security claim be accompanied by a published assessment of the exposure it addresses.

We study the KKT points of the squared-norm minimisation problem, where the biases and skip connection are unpenalised. By constructing feasible descent directions, we show that every KKT point represents the unique ridgeless interpolant. We further establish that KKT points have balanced parame- ters and no cancellation between coincident slope jumps. Combining these results with the relationship between the squared norm and total variation, we prove that every feasible KKT point is a global minimiser of the squared-norm interpolation problem.

We ask how the way a transcription factor controls a gene shapes this variation between cells, using the copper-responsive yeast gene CUP1 and its transcription factor Ace1p as the biological setting. We develop a model in five stages: constitutive production; a promoter that switches between OFF and ON; activation controlled by a fixed Ace1p input; explicit Ace1p binding at the four CUP1 response elements; and a reduced two-state model whose activation rate is a Hill function of the input. For each stage we derive the steady-state mean and Fano factor (variance divided by mean) and check them against exact Gillespie simulations. When the input controls only how often the promoter switches ON, a stronger input raises the mean and lowers the Fano factor, whilst the mean burst size stays fixed. Following binding at four sites shows that the input also lengthens ON periods, so it changes burst size as well as burst frequency. With the illustrative parameters used here, a Hill reduction calibrated to the four-site model reproduces its mean to within about 10% over the inputs studied, but underestimates the Fano factor by up to about 19% and overestimates the burst frequency by up to about 168%. Preserving the average mRNA level therefore does not preserve the variation between cells.

In real life matching, judging others based on first impressions is inevitable and these impressions are subjective and maybe inaccurate. We show that, under sufficient learning, each agent eventually become either a permanent solo or a member of a persisting pair. The initial beliefs play an important role because they will affect the opportunity to form pairs and subsequent interactions. Hence, the initial information state will affect the lower bounds of the expected proportions of these eventual outcomes through its effect on the probability that the conditions for each eventual outcomes required are satisfied. We use simulations under specific assumptions about the initial belief distribution and true type distribution to examine how first impressions and population size affect the matching outcomes over a finite horizon. The simulation results reflect how the tight pairing restrictions of the model affect the proportion of agents who remain solo.

Dicarbamates were synthesised using diisocyanate and glycol alcohol starting materials in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) as a catalyst. The products were monitored using thin-layer chromatography (TLC), purified by column chromatography, and characterised using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The purified dicarbamates were subsequently subjected to electrolysis to investigate their electrochemical reactivity.
