Profile empirical likelihood for parametric and semiparametric models

This paper introduces a profile empirical likelihood and a profile conditionally empirical likelihood to estimate the parameter of interest in the presence of nuisance parameters respectively for the parametric and semiparametric models. It is proven that these methods propose some efficient estimators of parameters of interest in the sense of least-favorable efficiency. Particularly, for the decomposable semiparametric models, an explicit representation for the estimator of parameter of interest is derived from the proposed nonparametric method. These new estimations are different from and more efficient than the existing estimations. Some examples and simulation studies are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

Studies on self-pumped phase conjugation in Cu-doped (K0.5Na0.5)0.2(Sr0.61Ba0.39)0.9Nb2O6 crystals

The use of Cu-doped (K_0.5Na_0.5)_0.2(Sr_0.61Ba_0.39)_0.9Nb₂O₆ as self-pumped phase conjugators using internal reflection is reported. Reflectivities as high as 63% at 5145.5 nm and 60% at 632.8 nm were realized. It was found that the photorefractive response changes significantly at different doping concentration. The responses of the crystals to the laser wavelength, incident angle and dopant concentration are studied.     

POSITIVE SOLUTIONS OF NONLOCAL BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR NONLINEAR RETARDED DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

§1　IntroductionAt present,boundary value problems (BVPs) are widely investigated with variousmethods and techniques. BVPs with integral boundary conditions constitute a veryinteresting class of problems such as multipoint,three-point,four-point and nonlocalboundary value problems which are considered by many authors.And the existence ofpositive solutions for these problems becomes the subjectof many papers[1—6] .In a recentpaper[7] ,the authors have studied the existence of positive solut…     

Lipschitz estimates for generalized commutators of fractional integrals with rough kernel

Let (0 < α < n) be the generalized commutator generated by fractional integral with rough kernel and the m–th order remainder of the Taylor formula of a function A. In this paper, the (L^p, L^r) (r > 1) boundedness, the weak (L¹, L^{n/(n–α–β)}) boundedness and the (L^p, ?^{β, ∞}_p) boundedness of are discussed, when D^γA belongs to the Lipschitz function spaces.     

定常的热传导-对流问题的Galerkin/Petrov最小二乘混合元方法

1.引言 热传导-对流问题是大气动力学中的一个重要的方程,这个方程组也称为强迫耗散的非线性系统方程组,其较Navier-Stokes方程多了一个未知函数温度场,且温度与速度和压力之间存在着复杂的非线性关系.从热动力学可知,任何运动都会产生热量即有温度,而且温度与速度和压力之间必定互相转化,因此对该非线性系统的研究更具有实际意义.[1]先对     

2,3,4,5,6‐Penta­nitro­aniline 1,2‐dichloro­ethane disolvate: `push–pull' deformation of aromatic rings by intra­molecular charge transfer

The title compound, C₆H₂N₆O₁₀·2C₂H₄Cl₂, forms layered stacks of penta­nitro­aniline mol­ecules, which possess twofold symmetry. The voids between these stacks are occupied by dichloro­ethane mol­ecules, which reside near a 2/m symmetry element and display pseudo‐inversion symmetry. The C atoms in one of the two solvent mol­ecules are threefold disordered. In the penta­nitro­aniline mol­ecule, considerable distortion of the benzenoid ring, coupled with the short C—N(H₂) bond and out‐of‐plane NO₂ twistings, point to significant intra­molecular `push–pull' charge transfer at the amino‐ and nitro‐substituted (ortho and para) positions, as theoretically quantified by natural bond orbital analysis of the π‐electron density.
