Popular branchings and their dual certificates

Mathematical Programming - Let G be a digraph where every node has preferences over its incoming edges. The preferences of a node extend naturally to preferences over branchings, i.e., directed...     

Dynamical similarity of multi-block catenary arches and rocking blocks subjected to horizontal base excitation

Nonlinear Dynamics - In this paper, the dynamical similarity of multi-block catenary arches and columns is discussed, which can be used for the simplified design of rocking arches. The basic...     

Reflections on and of minor-closed classes of multisorted operations

The minor relation of functions is generalized to multisorted functions. Pippenger’s Galois theory for minor-closed sets of functions is extended to multisorted functions and multisorted relation pairs. Reflections of minor-closed sets are again minor-closed, and the effect of reflections on the invariant relation pairs of minor-closed sets of multisorted functions is described.     

Simple route to new oxadiazaboroles and oxadiazoles via amidoximes

Abstract

The novel push–pull alkene, the 2-(nitro-nitrosomethylene)-pyrrolidine with numerous aliphatic or aromatic amines as nucleophiles afforded amidoximes. Various substituted oxadiazaborole and oxadiazole derivatives were prepared starting from these amidoximes, widening the synthetic applicability of the push–pull alkenes. Acylation of the amidoximes was also examined. The mechanism of the amidoxime formation was investigated by computational methods.
