Airbnb, or the (globalized) geopolitics of a contested tourist accommodation offer. From magnified disruption to generalized conflictualities... by Victor Piganiol

“…A geopolitical approach makes it possible to analyse Airbnb from a purely conflictual perspective by mobilizing the tools, concepts and reasoning invented by and for this field of geography, and to shed light on some of the forces that make the platform a “city disrupter”, particularly at the local and even micro-local levels, that of the space of the residence itself and its immediate environment.…”

Spacetime Deformation-Induced Inertia Effects by Gagik Ter-Kazarian

“…We construct a toy model of spacetime deformation-induced inertia effects, in which we prescribe to each and every particle individually a new fundamental constituent of hypothetical 2D, so-called master space (MS), subject to certain rules. The MS, embedded in the background 4D-spacetime, is an indispensable companion to the particle of interest, without relation to every other particle. …”

Endogenous Instability in Credit-Constrained Emerging Economies with Leontief Technology by Cristiana Mammana, Elisabetta Michetti

“…Using bifurcation and stability analysis, we describe the properties of the system attractors, we assess the plausibility for complex dynamics and, we find out that border collision bifurcations can emerge due to the fact that the state space is piecewise smooth. As a consequence, when a fixed or periodic point loses its stability, the final dynamics may become suddenly chaotic. …”
