Synthesis of cationic molybdenum and cobalt diene complexes from neutral allyl compounds by ligand exchange in a strong protic acid

Conclusions The allyl ligand in neutral molybdenum and cobalt complexes is readily exchanged by dienes in the presence of a strong protic acid with the formation of cationic complexes. This exchange is facilitated by an increase in the basicity of the starting compounds.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1655–1657, July, 1987.     

On the stability of some integer programming algorithms

In the present paper we develop our approach for studying the stability of integer programming problems. We prove that the L-class enumeration method is stable on integer linear programming problems in the case of bounded relaxation sets [9]. The stability of some cutting plane algorithms is discussed.     

Ag-induced atomic structures on the Si(110) surface

We report the results of STM investigation of the initial stage of Ag adsorption on an Si(110) surface. At 0.21 ML Ag coverage, the size and orientation of the unit cell correspond to the parameters of a 16 × 2 unit cell of clean Si(110) surface. With increasing of the Ag coverage up to 0.42 ML, the type of surface reconstruction changes to a 4 × 1-Si(110)-Ag structure. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Approximation of nonsmooth solutions of linear ill-posed problems

In the multidimensional case, for the Tikhonov regularization, two new families of stabilizers containing the norms of the Lipschitz spaces and the norms of the Sobolev spaces with fractional derivatives are suggested. Theorems of convergence of Tikhonov regularized approximate solutions and their discrete approximations are proved. Detailed step-by-step investigation of the solving algorithm is performed by the example of an integral Fredholm equation of the first kind.     

Dual Characterizations of Set Containments with Strict Convex Inequalities

Characterizations of the containment of a convex set either in an arbitrary convex set or in the complement of a finite union of convex sets (i.e., the set, described by reverse-convex inequalities) are given. These characterizations provide ways of verifying the containments either by comparing their corresponding dual cones or by checking the consistency of suitable associated systems. The convex sets considered in this paper are the solution sets of an arbitrary number of convex inequalities, which can be either weak or strict inequalities. Particular cases of dual characterizations of set containments have played key roles in solving large scale knowledge-based data classification problems where they are used to describe the containments as inequality constraints in optimization problems. The idea of evenly convex set (intersection of open half spaces), which was introduced by W. Fenchel in 1952, is used to derive the dual conditions, characterizing the set containments.     

Analytical investigation into the mechanism of dielectric losses due to interlayer polarization

The theory of dielectric space-charge polarization losses describes well both the model of an inhomogeneous dielectric [1] and the polarization resulting from mosaic blocks of alkali-halide crystals [2]. The Debye frequency dependences ε*(ω) and tan δ(ω) with non-Arrhenius relaxation time are calculated in the first approximation of perturbation theory [3, 4] with the use of a nonlinear system of the Fokker-Planck and Poisson equations for the interlayer polarization with allowance for tunnel transitions of relaxation oscillators. For the Maxwell mechanism of space-charge relaxation, tan δ(ω) also has the Debye form [5]. It should be noted that in studies cited above the electric field was considered uniform, and the nonlinearity of the initial system of equations was not investigated. This paper removes these restrictions and elaborates a theory of relaxation mechanism. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 11, pp. 28–34, November, 2006.     

Heat-resistant foamed organoplastics based on a combination of polyimide felt, polyimide binders, and montmorillonite nanoparticles

A series of foamed organoplastics based on a combination of foamed fully aromatic polyimide binders and Arimid T polyimide felt were prepared. New composite foamed organoplastics reinforced with montmorillonite nanoparticles were prepared using commercially available aromatic monomers.     

Synthesis and fungicidal activity of S-amino derivatives of O-alkyldithiocarbonic acids

S-Amino derivatives of O-alkyldithiocarbonic acid were prepared by oxidative condensation of certain alkaloids with sodium xanthates. Some of the compounds synthesized exhibit fungicidal activity.
