Complex multiplication, Griffiths-Yukawa couplings, and rigidity for families of hypersurfaces
2003
Let M(d,n) be the moduli stack of hypersurfaces of degree d > n in the complex projective n-space, and let M(d,n;1) be the sub-stack, parameterizing hypersurfaces obtained as a d fold cyclic covering of the projective n-1 space, ramified over a hypersurface of degree d. Iterating this construction, one obtains M(d,n;r). We show that M(d,n;1) is rigid in M(d,n), although the Griffiths-Yukawa coupling degenerates for d<2n. On the other hand, for all d>n the sub-stack M(d,n;2) deforms. We calculate the exact length of the Griffiths-Yukawa coupling over M(d,n;r), and we construct a 4-dimensional family of quintic hypersurfaces, and a dense set of points in the base, where the fibres ha…
Relative principal congruences in congruence-modular quasivarieties
1998
The problem of definability of relative principal congruences in relatively congruence modular (RCM) quasivarieties is investigated. The RCM quasivarieties are characterized in terms of parameterized families of finite sets of pairs of terms which define relative principal congruences.
Algebraic and logical characterizations of deterministic linear time classes
1997
In this paper an algebraic characterization of the class DLIN of functions that can be computed in linear time by a deterministic RAM using only numbers of linear size is given. This class was introduced by Grandjean, who showed that it is robust and contains most computational problems that are usually considered to be solvable in deterministic linear time.
Paths Coloring Algorithms in Mesh Networks
2003
In this paper, we will consider the problem of coloring directed paths on a mesh network. A natural application of this graph problem is WDM-routing in all-optical networks. Our main result is a simple 4-approximation algorithm for coloring line-column paths on a mesh. We also present sharper results when there is a restriction on the path lengths. Moreover, we show that these results can be extended to toroidal meshes and to line-column or column-line paths.
Insights into the decomposition pathway of a lutetium alkylamido complex via intramolecular C–H bond activation
2017
Abstract Synthesis, characterization and reaction chemistry of lutetium alkylamido LLu(CH2SiMe3)(NHCPh3) (2), L = 2,5-[Ph2P=N(4-iPrC6H4)]2N(C4H2)–, is reported. Complex 2 undergoes cyclometalation of the NHCPh3 ligand at elevated temperatures to produce the orthometalated complex LLu(κ2−N,C-(NHCPh2(C6H4))) (3) which converts to 0.5 equivalents of bis(amido) LLu(NHCPh3)2 (4) upon heating at 80 °C for 24 h. Reaction of complex 2 with 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) does not promote alkane elimination nor imido formation. A kinetic analysis of the thermal decomposition of complex 2, supported by deuterium labelling studies and computational analysis (PBE0/def2-TZVP/SDD(Lu)), indicate direct Csp…
Measuring the Relative Reactivity of the Carbon-Hydrogen Bonds of Alkanes as Nucleophiles
2018
We report quantitative measurements of the relative reactivities of a series of C-H bonds of gaseous or liquid CnH2n+2 alkanes (n = 1-8, 29 different C-H bonds) towards insitu generated electrophiles (copper, silver, and rhodium carbenes), with methane as the reference. This strategy surpasses the drawback of previous model reactions of alkanes with strong electrophiles suffering from C-C cleavage processes, which precluded direct comparison of the relative reactivities of alkane C-H bonds.
The hydrothermal system of the Domuyo volcanic complex (Argentina): A conceptual model based on new geochemical and isotopic evidences
2016
The Domuyo volcanic complex (Neuquén Province, Argentina) hosts one of the most promising geothermal systems of Patagonia, giving rise to thermal manifestations discharging hot and Cl−-rich fluids. This study reports a complete geochemical dataset of gas and water samples collected in three years (2013, 2014 and 2015) from the main fluid discharges of this area. The chemical and isotopic composition (δD-H2O and δ18O-H2O) of waters indicates that rainwater and snow melting are the primary recharge of a hydrothermal reservoir located at relative shallow depth (400–600 m) possibly connected to a second deeper (2–3 km) reservoir. Reactive magmatic gases are completely scrubbed by the hydrotherm…
Mechanism of anionic polymerization of (meth)acrylates in the presence of aluminium alkyls, 1. 13C NMR studies of model compounds in toluene
1994
The bimetallic ate complex [(CH 3 ) 2 C=C(OEt)(O - AlR 3 )]Li + is regarded to be the model of the active centre of the polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of aluminium alkyls. This complex is detectable by 13 C NMR up to 273 K. At ambient temperature irreversible decomposition takes place. Apart from the formation of the ate complex, excess aluminium chloride coordinates to the ester carbonyl groups of both the monomer and the polymer chain
On the formation of inclusion complexes at the solid/liquid interface of anchored temperature-responsive PNIPAAM diblock copolymers with γ-cyclodextr…
2017
The thermal responsive behavior of adsorbed layers of diblock copolymers of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM) and poly((3-acrylamidopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride) (PAMPTMA(+)) with γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) at the solid/liquid interface has been investigated using three in situ techniques: null ellipsometry, quartz–crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, and neutron reflectometry. The measurements provided information about the adsorbed amounts, the layer thickness, hydration and viscoelastic properties, and the interfacial structure and composition. The copolymers adsorb to silica with the cationic PAMPTMA(+) blocks sitting as anchors in a flat conformation and the PNIPAAM ch…
New chiral α-aminophosphine oxides and sulfides: an unprecedented rhodium-catalyzed ligand epimerization
2001
International audience; New chiral α-aminophosphine oxide N,P(O) and sulfide N,P(S) ligands have been prepared in one-pot syntheses by addition of Ph2PH to (S)-PhCH[double bond, length half m-dash]NCH(Ph)CH3, followed by oxidation with O2 or S8. Crystallization from cold methanol leads to the isolation of an enantiomerically pure single N,P(O) diastereomer and to a 1 : 1 mixture of the two N,P(S) diastereomers. The coordination chemistry of these ligands with [RhCl(COD)]2 and [RhCl(CO)2]2 has been investigated under argon and syngas. At high temperatures, a P–C oxidative addition of the N,P(O) ligand followed by imine elimination leads to several hydrido rhodium species. The complexes conta…
