Periods of generalized Fermat curves

Let $k,n\ge 2$ be integers. A generalized Fermat curve of type $(k,n)$ is a compact Riemann surface S that admits a subgroup of conformal automorphisms $H\le \text{Aut}(S)$ isomorphic to ${\mathbb{Z}}_k^n$, such that the quotient surface $S/H$ is biholomorphic to the Riemann sphere $\stackrel{?}{\mathbb{C}}$ and has $n+1$ branch points, each one of order k. There exists a good algebraic model for these objects, which makes them easier to study. Using tools from algebraic topology and integration theory on Riemann surfaces, we find a set of generators for the first homology group of a generalized Fermat curve. Finally, with this information, we find a set of generators for the period lattice of the associated Jacobian variety.     

Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz for analytic trigonometric polynomials

This paper proves such a new Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz for analytic trigonometric polynomials that if ${\left\{f_j\right\}}_{j=1}^{n\ge 2}$ are analytic trigonometric polynomials without common zero in the finite complex plane $?$ then there are analytic trigonometric polynomials ${\left\{g_j\right\}}_{j=1}^{n\ge 2}$ obeying ${\sum }_{j=1}^{n\ge 2}{f}_j{g}_j=1$ in $?$, thereby not only strengthening Helmer’s Principal Ideal Theorem for entire functions, but also finding an intrinsic path from Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz for analytic polynomials to Pythagoras’ Identity on $?$.

Analyticity of resonances and eigenvalues and spectral properties of the massless Spin–Boson model

We extend the method of Pizzo multiscale analysis for resonances introduced in [5] in order to infer analytic properties of resonances and eigenvalues (and their eigenprojections) as well as estimates for the localization of the spectrum of dilated Hamiltonians and norm-bounds for the corresponding resolvent operators, in neighborhoods of resonances and eigenvalues. We apply our method to the massless Spin–Boson model assuming a slight infrared regularization. We prove that the resonance and the ground-state eigenvalue (and their eigenprojections) are analytic with respect to the dilation parameter and the coupling constant. Moreover, we prove that the spectrum of the dilated Spin–Boson Hamiltonian in the neighborhood of the resonance and the ground-state eigenvalue is localized in two cones in the complex plane with vertices at the location of the resonance and the ground-state eigenvalue, respectively. Additionally, we provide norm-estimates for the resolvent of the dilated Spin–Boson Hamiltonian near the resonance and the ground-state eigenvalue. The topic of analyticity of eigenvalues and resonances has let to several studies and advances in the past. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that it is addressed from the perspective of Pizzo multiscale analysis. Once the multiscale analysis is set up our method gives easy access to analyticity: Essentially, it amounts to proving it for isolated eigenvalues only and use that uniform limits of analytic functions are analytic. The type of spectral and resolvent estimates that we prove are needed to control the time evolution including the scattering regime. The latter will be demonstrated in a forthcoming publication. The introduced multiscale method to study spectral and resolvent estimates follows its own inductive scheme and is independent (and different) from the method we apply to construct resonances.     

Fluorescent macrocyclic chemosensor for Zn(II) detection at alkaline pH values

ABSTRACT

The new macrocyclic ligand L (28,29-dimethoxy-27-oxa-8,11,14,17,25,26-hexaazatetracyclo[22.2.1.1(2,6).1(19,23)]nonacosa-2,4,6(28),19,21,23(29),24,26(1)-octaene) has been synthesised. It contains a tetramine chain and the 2,5-bis(2-methoxy-3-metyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PPD-OMe) chromophore, acting as coordinating and sensing units, respectively.

The fluorescent emission of L depends on the pH being highly fluorescent at pH = 2 and not emitting from pH >10. The studies highlighted that L is a PET mediated emitting chemosensor, being the PET effect regulated by the degree of the tetraamine protonation.

L coordinates metal ions (Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II)) in water giving rise to an OFF-ON fluorescent response for the presence of Zn(II) ion thus signalling its presence in the medium. This response is particularly notable at pH = 9 allowing to extend the Zn(II) sensing also in the alkaline pH field.     

Biosynthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using Euphorbia milii leaf constituents: Characterization and improved photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under natural sunlight

A facile biosynthesis route was followed to prepare zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using Euphorbia milii (E. milii) leaf constituents. The SEM images exhibited presence of spherical ZnO NPs and the corresponding TEM images disclosed monodisperse nature of the ZnO NPs with diameter ranges between 12 and 20 nm. The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis revealed that the ZnO NPs have specific surface area of 20.46 m²/g with pore diameter of 2 nm–10 nm and pore volume of 0.908 cm³/g. The EDAX spectrum exemplified the existence of Zn and O elements and non-appearance of impurities that confirmed pristine nature of the ZnO NPs. The XRD pattern indicated crystalline peaks corresponding to hexagonal wurtzite structured ZnO with an average crystallite size of 16.11 nm. The FTIR spectrum displayed strong absorption bands at 512 and 534 cm^?1 related to ZnO. The photocatalytic action of ZnO NPs exhibited noteworthy degradation of methylene blue dye under natural sunlight illumination. The maximum degradation efficiency achieved was 98.17% at an illumination period of 50 min. The reusability study proved considerable photostability of the ZnO NPs during photocatalytic experiments. These findings suggest that the E. milii leaf constituents can be utilized as suitable biological source to synthesis ZnO NPs for photocatalytic applications.

Macroscopic and microscopic electrical properties of a ferrofluid in a low frequency field

Using the complex dielectric permittivity measurements, in the frequency range 20 Hz – 2 MHz and at temperatures between (25–70) ^∘C, the polarizability (α), the electric modulus (M) and the electrical conductivity (σ), of a ferrofluid sample, were determined. The results enabled the computation of the thermal activation energy of electrical conduction, the obtained value being approximately equal, at 0.15 eV. By eliminating the losses arising from electrical conduction, we highlighted the existence of a Schwarz type dielectric relaxation, in the sample, at the frequency above 5 kHz. These results allowed, for the first time, the evaluation of the mechanical mobility, u, of the ions on the particle surface, resulting in a value of, $u=3.4\cdot {10}^8$ m/s N. Knowledge of macroscopic and microscopic electrical properties is useful in explaining the dielectric polarization mechanisms and relaxation processes of ferrofluids, and also in the use of ferrofluids in technological and biomedical applications.
