Rational matrix functions associated with the Nevanlinna-Pick problem in the class <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>[<Emphasis Type="Italic">a,b</Emphasis>] and orthogonal on a compact interval

We consider the interpolation Nevanlinna-Pick problem with infinitely many interpolation nodes in the class S[a, b] and rational matrix functions associated with this problem and orthogonal on the segment [a, b]. We obtain a criterion of complete indeterminacy of the Nevanlinna-Pick problem in terms of orthogonal rational matrix functions. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 59, No. 6, pp. 764–770, June, 2007.     

On the properties of solutions to the Goursat-Darboux problem with boundary and distributed controls

We consider a control system described by the Goursat-Darboux equation. The system is controlled by distributed and boundary controls. The controls are subject to the constraints given as multivalued mappings with closed, possibly nonconvex, values depending on the phase variable. Alongside the initial constraints, we consider the convexified constraints and the constraints whose values are the extreme points of the convexified constraints. We study the questions of existence of solutions and establish connections between the solutions under various constraints.     

Higher discriminants of binary forms

We propose a method for constructing systems of polynomial equations that define submanifolds of degenerate binary forms of an arbitrary degeneracy degree. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 153, No. 2, pp. 147–157, November, 2007.     

On a certain nonlocal problem for a hyperbolic equation

The author proves the existence and uniqueness of a generalized solution of a nonlocal problem with an integral condition for a hyperbolic equation with n spatial variables. This work is a continuation of the studies started in [3–5], where the solvability problem of nonlocal problems with an integral condition was studied for hyperbolic equations on the plane. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 33, Suzdal Conference-2004, Part 1, 2005.     

Algorithms of motion planning for a six-legged walking machine

This paper investigates algorithms of motion planning for a six-legged walking machine over complex terrain. Application of the Rodrigues-Hamilton parameters for describing the orientation of the body enables one to develop algorithms of motion planning for the body and legs in an absolute coordinate frame with automatic adaptation to the surface. Experiments with a laboratory scale walking machine have demonstrated the efficiency of proposed algorithms. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 11, No. 7, pp. 197–206, 2005.     

Correlation between energy positions of deep intrinsic point-defect levels and a limiting fermi level in irradiated III–V semiconductors

The energy levels of neutral anion (V_A) and cation (V_C) vacancies and antisite defects are calculated for the anion C_A and cation A_C sublattices of III–V semiconductors. An averaged energy level position for these defects is estimated to be E_av ^abs = 4.9 eV. The position coincides with the local charge electroneutrality level. It is shown that the case, where the total energies of formation of V_A, V_C and antisite C_A, A_C defects in the sublattices of binary semiconductors are similar, corresponds to the point-defect equilibrium condition and stabilization of the Fermi level in the proximity of the local charge electroneutrality level. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 5, pp. 17–22, May, 2007.
