Characterization of the SiOT Angle and Cation Effects on 29Si Chemical Shifts Of Zeolites

The quantitative relationships between ²⁹Si chemical shifts and (a) the SiOT (T = Al or Si) angles and (b) the nature of the cations of the alkali forms of zeolites can be account for by the changes of charge density and p electron population of the Si atoms as calculated by the extended Hückel method on cluster models.     

Einstein metrics and the number of smooth structures on a four-manifold

We prove that for every natural number k there are simply connected topological four-manifolds which have at least k distinct smooth structures supporting Einstein metrics, and also have infinitely many distinct smooth structures not supporting Einstein metrics. Moreover, all these smooth structures become diffeomorphic to each other after connected sum with only one copy of the complex projective plane. We prove that manifolds with these properties cover a large geographical area.

Optimality conditions and duality results for nonsmooth vector optimization problems with the multiple interval-valued objective function

In this paper, both Fritz John and Karush-Kuhn-Tucker necessary optimality conditions are established for a (weakly) LU-efficient solution in the considered nonsmooth multiobjective programming problem with the multiple interval-objective function. Further, the sufficient optimality conditions for a (weakly) LU-efficient solution and several duality results in Mond-Weir sense are proved under assumptions that the functions constituting the considered nondifferentiable multiobjective programming problem with the multiple interval-objective function are convex.     

Microanalytical method development for Fe, Cu and Zn determination in colorectal cancer cells

Microanalytical methods suitable for the determination of Fe, Cu in HT-29 (human colon adenocarcinoma) cells treated with different iron compounds (Fe(II) sulfate, Fe(III) chloride, Fe(III) citrate and Fe(III) transferrin) and cultured in medium supplemented or not with 10% (v/v) fetal calf serum (FCS) by total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (TXRF) and simultaneous graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GF-AAS) were developed. The developed TXRF method was also suitable for Zn determination in the samples. The main advantage of the proposed methods is the execution of all sample preparation steps following incubation and prior to the elemental analysis in the same Eppendorf tubes. Sample preparation was performed at microscale (115 μL sample volume) with 65% nitric acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide. According to scanning electron microscopic measurements, the organic matrix of the cell samples could be eliminated to the extent that accurate results were obtained for Cu and Fe by analyzing the same samples by TXRF and GF-AAS. Concerning the iron uptake, HT-29 cells incubated in FCS-free medium contained Fe in cca. 5-50 times higher amounts compared to cells cultured in FCS supplemented medium. Pronounced differences in the iron uptake compared to the iron supply (inorganic vs. organic chelated as well as iron(II) vs. iron(III)) were observed in the case of cell lines incubated in FCS-free medium.     

An inverse eigenvalue problem for periodic Jacobi matrices in Minkowski spaces

The spectral properties of periodic Jacobi matrices in Minkowski spaces are studied. An inverse problem for these matrices is investigated, and necessary and sufficient conditions under which the problem is solvable are presented. Uniqueness results are also discussed, and an algorithm to construct the solutions and illustrative examples is provided.     

Identities for the Widder transform and transforms with Bessel function kernels

In the present paper, we consider the classical Widder transform, the H_ν-transform, the K_ν-transform, and the Y_ν-transform. Some identities involving these transforms and many others are given. By making use of these identities, a number of new Parseval-Goldstein type identities are obtained for these and other well-known integral transforms.     

Condensed Cramer rule for some restricted quaternion linear equations

In this paper, we derive an alternative more condensed Cramer rule for the unique solution of some restricted left and right systems of quaternion linear equations. The findings of this paper extend some known results in the literature.     

Sensitivity of risk measures with respect to the normal approximation of total claim distributions

A simple and commonly used method to approximate the total claim distribution of a (possibly weakly dependent) insurance collective is the normal approximation. In this article, we investigate the error made when the normal approximation is plugged in a fairly general distribution-invariant risk measure. We focus on the rate of convergence of the error relative to the number of clients, we specify the relative error’s asymptotic distribution, and we illustrate our results by means of a numerical example. Regarding the risk measure, we take into account distortion risk measures as well as distribution-invariant coherent risk measures.
