The adiabatic strictly-correlated-electrons functional : kernel and exact properties
2016
We investigate a number of formal properties of the adiabatic strictly-correlated electrons (SCE) functional, relevant for time-dependent potentials and for kernels in linear response time-dependent density functional theory. Among the former, we focus on the compliance to constraints of exact many-body theories, such as the generalised translational invariance and the zero-force theorem. Within the latter, we derive an analytical expression for the adiabatic SCE Hartree exchange-correlation kernel in one dimensional systems, and we compute it numerically for a variety of model densities. We analyse the non-local features of this kernel, particularly the ones that are relevant in tackling p…
Self-assembly and rheology of dipolar colloids in simple shear studied using multi-particle collision dynamics.
2017
Magnetic nanoparticles in a colloidal solution self-assemble in various aligned structures, which has a profound influence on the flow behavior. However, the precise role of the microstructure in the development of the rheological response has not been reliably quantified. We investigate the self-assembly of dipolar colloids in simple shear using hybrid molecular dynamics and multi-particle collision dynamics simulations with explicit coarse-grained hydrodynamics, conduct simulated rheometric studies and apply micromechanical models to produce master curves, showing evidence of the universality of the structural behavior governed by the competition between the bonding (dipolar) and erosive …

The new title compound is synthesized from a mixture of U, P2S5, Li2S, Cs2S, and S in the molar ratio 2:2:1:1:4 (sealed silica tube, 700 °C, 3 d).
Reducing disruptive behaviours and improving learning climates with class-wide positive behaviour support in middle schools
2014
Disruptive behaviours in classrooms pose a significant challenge for learning in schools and are, at the same time, a risk factor for students’ academic achievement and a major source for work-related stress among teachers. Earlier research suggests that clarifying the classroom rules and behavioural expectations, monitoring students’ adherence to them and using behaviour-specific praise are simple and effective practices to reduce disruptive behaviour. Most of the interventions have been developed for elementary schools, although behaviour problems tend to be more common in middle schools. This two-month pilot study using a pre–post design evaluated the effects of a class-wide intervention…
Permutability of injectors with a central socle in a finite solvable group
2017
In response to an Open Question of Doerk and Hawkes [5, IX Section 3, page 615], we shall show that if Zπ is the Fitting class formed by the finite solvable groups whose π-socle is central (where π is a set of prime numbers), then the Zπ-injectors of a finite solvable group G permute with the members of a Sylow basis in G. The proof depends on the properties of certain extraspecial groups [4].
Are locally finite MV-algebras a variety?
2021
We answer Mundici's problem number 3 (D. Mundici. Advanced {\L}ukasiewicz calculus. Trends in Logic Vol. 35. Springer 2011, p. 235): Is the category of locally finite MV-algebras equivalent to an equational class? We prove: (i) The category of locally finite MV-algebras is not equivalent to any finitary variety. (ii) More is true: the category of locally finite MV-algebras is not equivalent to any finitely-sorted finitary quasi-variety. (iii) The category of locally finite MV-algebras is equivalent to an infinitary variety; with operations of at most countable arity. (iv) The category of locally finite MV-algebras is equivalent to a countably-sorted finitary variety. Our proofs rest upon th…
Correspondence between some metabelian varieties and left nilpotent varieties
2021
Abstract In the class of left nilpotent algebras of index two it was proved that there are no varieties of fractional polynomial growth ≈ n α with 1 α 2 and 2 α 3 instead it was established the existence of a variety of fractional polynomial growth with α = 7 2 . In this paper we investigate similar problems for varieties of commutative or anticommutative metabelian algebras. We construct a correspondence between left nilpotent algebras of index two and commutative metabelian algebras or anticommutative metabelian algebras and we prove that the codimensions sequences of the corresponding algebras coincide up to a constant. This allows us to transfer the above results concerning varieties of…
On a Linear Diophantine Problem of Frobenius: Extending the Basis
1998
LetXk={a1, a2, …, ak},k>1, be a subset of N such that gcd(Xk)=1. We shall say that a natural numbernisdependent(onXk) if there are nonnegative integersxisuch thatnhas a representationn=∑ki=1 xiai, elseindependent. The Frobenius numberg(Xk) ofXkis the greatest integer withnosuch representation. Selmer has raised the problem of extendingXkwithout changing the value ofg. He showed that under certain conditions it is possible to add an elementc=a+kdto the arithmetic sequencea,a+d,a+2d, …, a+(k−1) d, gcd(a, d)=1, without alteringg. In this paper, we give the setCof all independent numberscsatisfyingg(A, c)=g(A), whereAcontains the elements of the arithmetic sequence. Moreover, ifa>kthen we give …
Hypergraph functor and attachment
2010
Using an arbitrary variety of algebras, the paper introduces a fuzzified version of the notion of attachment in a complete lattice of Guido, to provide a common framework for the concept of hypergraph functor considered by different authors in the literature. The new notion also gives rise to a category of variable-basis topological spaces which is a proper supercategory of the respective category of Rodabaugh.
Nilpotent length and system permutability
2022
Abstract If C is a class of groups, a C -injector of a finite group G is a subgroup V of G with the property that V ∩ K is a C -maximal subgroup of K for all subnormal subgroups K of G. The classical result of B. Fischer, W. Gaschutz and B. Hartley states the existence and conjugacy of F -injectors in finite soluble groups for Fitting classes F . We shall show that for groups of nilpotent length at most 4, F -injectors permute with the members of a Sylow basis in the group. We shall exhibit the construction of a Fitting class and a group of nilpotent length 5, which fail to satisfy the result and show that the bound is the best possible.
