Weighted Hardy Spaces of Quasiconformal Mappings
2019
We establish a weighted version of the $H^p$-theory of quasiconformal mappings.
Radial symmetry of p-harmonic minimizers
2017
"It is still not known if the radial cavitating minimizers obtained by Ball [J.M. Ball, Discontinuous equilibrium solutions and cavitation in nonlinear elasticity, Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. A 306 (1982) 557--611] (and subsequently by many others) are global minimizers of any physically reasonable nonlinearly elastic energy". The quotation is from [J. Sivaloganathan and S. J. Spector, Necessary conditions for a minimum at a radial cavitating singularity in nonlinear elasticity, Ann. Inst. H. Poincare Anal. Non Lineaire 25 (2008), no. 1, 201--213] and seems to be still accurate. The model case of the $p$-harmonic energy is considered here. We prove that the planar radial minimizers are indee…
Progression of Diiminopyridines: From Single Application to Catalytic Versatility
2015
Diiminopyridyl metal complexes, first characterized several decades ago, found practical application in 1998 when they were used as precatalysts in coordinative ethylene polymerization. This discovery contributed to the so-called postmetallocene revolution and triggered the large-scale experimental and theoretical research aimed at understanding diversified diiminopyridine chemistry. The results of this quest, some of which were intriguing and difficult to anticipate, are discussed and summarized in the current Review.
Baltijas valstu un Polijas reģionālā drošības kompleksa nozīmība aktuālā apdraudējuma novēršanā. No 2008. līdz 2017. gadam
2019
Maģistra darbs “Baltijas valstu un Polijas reģionālā drošības kompleksa nozīmība aktuālā apdraudējuma novēršanā. No 2008. līdz 2017. gadam” apskata Baltijas valstis un Poliju, kā vienu reģionālās drošības kompleksu veidojošas valstis. Vienota reģionālā drošības kompleksa esamība tiek pamatota ar empīrisko materiālu, kas atbalsta teorijas piedāvāto analīzi. Pētījuma mērķis ir ņemot vērā aktuālos drošības izaicinājumus, izpētīt valstīs esošos instrumentus un sadarbības virzienus, kā arī identificēt tuvināšanās potenciālu. Darbā tiek izmantotas kvalitatīvās pētniecības metodes – akadēmiskās literatūras izpēte, dokumentu un pētnieciskās literatūras kontentanalīze, tiek veiktas strukturētas kval…
Chronic ethanol exposure alters the levels, assembly, and cellular organization of the actin cytoskeleton and microtubules in hippocampal neurons in …
2010
The organization and dynamics of microtubules (MTs) and the actin cytoskeleton are critical for the correct development and functions of neurons, including intracellular traffic and signaling. In vitro ethanol exposure impairs endocytosis, exocytosis, and nucleocytoplasmic traffic in astrocytes and alters endocytosis in cultured neurons. In astrocytes, these effects relate to changes in the organization and/or function of MTs and the actin cytoskeleton. To evaluate this possibility in hippocampal cultured neurons, we analyzed if chronic ethanol exposure affects the levels, assembly, and cellular organization of both cytoskeleton elements and the possible underlying mechanisms of these effec…
Méthodologie de modélisation et de caractérisation des réseaux spatiaux. Application au réseau viaire de Paris
2016
International audience; Les graphes spatialisés soulèvent différentes questions qui intéressent plusieurs disciplines, depuis la biologie (veinures de feuilles, réseaux neuronaux) ou la géomorphologie (réseaux fluviaux) jusqu’aux études urbaines (réseaux de transports), sans oublier celle des réseaux d’énergie (réseaux électriques, de gaz ou de pétrole) et de télécommunication. Nous nous concentrerons ici sur les exemples apportés par les réseaux viaires. C’est à travers ceux-ci que nous définirons dans cet article d’abord un objet d’étude multi-échelle, la voie, puis cinq indicateurs liés qui permettront une lecture enrichie de la spatialité urbaine. Nous expliciterons ainsi les particular…
Metal salen complexes as ethylene polymerization catalysts - effect of catalytic system composition on its activity and properties of polymerization …
2008
Zsyntetyzowano i zastosowano [po aktywacji metyloaluminoksanem (MAO) lub Et2AlCl] w charakterze katalizatorów niskociśnieniowej polimeryzacji etylenu serię salenowych kompleksów metali przejściowych różniących się rodzajem atomu centralnego (M=Ti, Zr lub V) i budową chemiczną ligandu (schemat A). Stwierdzono, że salenowe kompleksy cyrkonu są aktywne w polimeryzacji jedynie wówczas, gdy aktywator stanowi MAO, natomiast kompleksy tytanu i wanadu są aktywniejsze w przypadku gdy kokatalizatorem jest typowy związek glinoorganiczny - dietylochloroglin. Aktywność kompleksów w układzie z Et2AlCl zmienia się w szeregu V>Ti>>Zr?0, podczas gdy w odniesieniu do kompleksów aktywowanych MAO maleje ona w …
Science of success: An introduction
2019
Performance and success are often used as synonyms to express individual accomplishment. However, from a scientific perspective they cover very different concepts: performance is about individual effort, while success is a collective quantity capturing the community's acknowledgment of effort and performance. In these notes, we investigate the quantitative rules that govern both, trying to model their interdependence within the framework of complex systems. We explore different fields, ranging from online crowdfunding platforms to academia, with the idea of applying scientifically sound methods to uncover the universal laws that determine the allocation of merit in science and society.
