Et2Zn-mediated stoichiometric C(sp)-H silylation of 1-alkynes and chlorosilanes

A first example of an Et₂Zn mediated silylation of 1-aklynes is reported. A series of functional groups are tolerated in this reaction. Mechanistic studies support Zn alkynilides as intermediates in the reaction. This reaction protocol provides a practical method for the preparation of alkynylsilanes and expands the application of organometallic zinc in organic synthesis.     

Two Projection Algorithms for Solving the Split Common Fixed Point Problem

Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications - We study the split common fixed point problem for Bregman relatively nonexpansive operators in real reflexive Banach spaces. Using Bregman...     

The EPR Spectra of Manganese(II) on Sulfonated Polystyrene Resins Cross-linked with Pure Divinylbenzene Isomers

The EPR spectra of manganese(II) ions on sulfonated polystyrene cross-linked with either pure meta or pure para divinylbenzene show distinctions indicative of ionic environments of different symmetry.     

Convergence of non-periodic infinite products of orthogonal projections and nonexpansive operators in Hilbert space

We provide sufficient conditions for strong and uniform (on bounded subsets of initial points) convergence of infinite products of orthogonal projections and other (possibly nonlinear) nonexpansive operators in a Hilbert space. Our main tools are new estimates of the inclination of a finite tuple of closed linear subspaces.     

Finite element approximations of a nonlinear diffusion model with memory

The convergence of a finite element scheme approximating a nonlinear system of integro-differential equations is proven. This system arises in mathematical modeling of the process of a magnetic field penetrating into a substance. Properties of existence, uniqueness and asymptotic behavior of the solutions are briefly described. The decay of the numerical solution is compared with both the theoretical and finite difference results.     

A stable convergence theorem for infinite products of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces

We use the concept of porosity in order to establish a generic stable convergence theorem for infinite products of nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces.
