Left versus right canonical Wiener-Hopf factorization and realization

For an arbitrary rational matrix function, not necessarily analytic at infinity, the existence of a right canonical Wiener-Hopf factorization is characterized in terms of a left canonical Wiener-Hopf factorization. Formulas for the factors in a right factorization are given in terms of the formulas for the factors in a given left factorization. All formulas are based on a special representation of a rational matrix function involving a quintet of matrices.     

Lie-algebraic structure of integrable nonlinear dynamical systems on extended functional manifolds

We consider the general Lie-algebraic scheme of construction of integrable nonlinear dynamical systems on extended functional manifolds. We obtain an explicit expression for consistent Poisson structures and write explicitly nonlinear equations generated by the spectrum of a periodic problem for an operator of Lax-type representation.     

Investigation of invariant sets with random perturbations with the use of the Lyapunov function

We consider invariant sets of the form V(t, x) = 0, where V(t, x) is the Lyapunov function of the corresponding deterministic system.

Poincaré’s inequalities and Talagrand’s concentration phenomenon for the exponential distribution

Summary. We present a simple proof, based on modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, of Talagrand’s concentration inequality for the exponential distribution. We actually observe that every measure satisfying a Poincaré inequality shares the same concentration phenomenon. We also discuss exponential integrability under Poincaré inequalities and its consequence to sharp diameter upper bounds on spectral gaps.

On the conjugate boundary value problem

We study the conjugate boundary-value problem with boundary conditions whose orders can be as large as the order of the differential equation or larger. We construct the Green's function of the problem over the entire space when the separating surface is a hyperplane, and we describe its properties.

Barium ferrite particulates prepared by a salt-melt method

Barium ferrite particulates have been prepared by coprecipitation and calcination in a flux of NaCl-KCl. It was found that a flux containing more than 30 wt% KCl tends to seriously deteriorate the magnetic properties of resultant perticulates. The flux with 10 wt% KCl or less showed promising results. A Ba(CoZr)_0.75Fe_10.5O₁₉ particulate showed the best properties, i.e., a saturation magnetization of 68.5, a squareness ratio of 0.49, and a coercivity of 1280 Oe, when calcined in NaCl at 900°C for 4 h.
