Carleson measure characterization of Bloch functions

We give several equivalences of Bloch functions and little Bloch functions. Using these results we obtain the generalized Carleson measure characterization of Bloch functions and the generalized vanishing Carleson measure characterization of little Bloch functions, that is,f B if and only if |D f(z)| ^p (1-|z|²)^p-1 dm(z) is a generalized Carleson measure;f B ₀ if and only if |D f(z)| ^p (1-|z|²)^p-1 dm(z) is a generalized vanishing Carleson measure, whereD f( > 0) is the fractional derivative of analytic functionf of order, m denotes the normalised Lebesgue measure.Supported partly by the Young Teacher Natural Science Foundation of Shandong Province.     

Influence of organic modifier and temperature on the enantiomeric separation of γ-lactams by HPLC

Summary A high-performance liquid chromatographic method is reported for the resolution of the enantiomers of a series of fused -lactams (2,7-diaza-3-oxo[3.3.0]octan-6-ones) with probable anti-HIV and anticancer activity. Resolution was achieved on a Chiralcel^® OD column, cellulose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate) adsorbed on macroporous silica gel; mixtures ofn-hexane and isopropyl alcohol in different proportions were used as the mobile phase. The analysis was studied at different temperatures.     

Systematic analysis of the PSI experiment to directly measure the sticking probabilityω s in dt fusion

Starting in 1989 an experiment was run at PSI to directly measure the final sticking probability in muon catalyzed dt fusion. This experiment was based on an active-target ionization chamber (IC) built at Gatchina, Russia, and an array of plastic neutron counters. In three runs approximately 5×10⁶ isolated alpha signals were recorded with around one half of these occurring in the inner chamber region where we have more complete understanding of the systematic errors. Particularly from a long run in 1992 we were able to obtain a very clean sticking peak of some 5000 events. However, to reach an accurate value of sticking, all systematic effects and several major backgrounds had to be understood in detail. To this end a Monte Carlo code was written to simulate the full electrostatic environment of the IC and to recreate completely each signal type including the actual tritium decay noise from the live experiment. A slightly model dependent value of approx. 0.56±0.04% is obtained for final sticking.     

Feasibility of an experiment to determine the branching ratio for the emission of a heavy neutrino after muon capture in3He

The triton energy of the muon capture reaction ³He t+v, where ³ He is the ground state of muonic³He, has been measured in order to investigate a possible heavy v admixture into the flavour with high sensitivity. ³ He has been formed via the pd fusion reaction by stopping ^– in an ionization chamber (IC) filled with an H/D gas mixture of 3% D concentration at a pressure of 161 bar. In a first short experiment 650 triton events were observed yielding an upper limit for the -heavy v mixing strength of 2.3×10^–3 atE _0v=60 MeV.     

Survey of experimental results on μCF including hyperfine effects

Complementary to the investigations of the most efficient dt cycle, also the other muon-induced fusion cycles in mixtures of hydrogen isotopes have been studied. The results of these dedicated experiments provide rich information about muon-induced few-body reactions and contribute significantly to a better overall understanding of CF. A summary of the recent progress will be presented. Special emphasis will be put on two characteristic examples, namely a new experimental approach to study the muonic cascade in H-D mixtures and the systematic study of hyperfine effects in muon-induced reactions.     

A smooth method for the finite minimax problem

We consider unconstrained minimax problems where the objective function is the maximum of a finite number of smooth functions. We prove that, under usual assumptions, it is possible to construct a continuously differentiable function, whose minimizers yield the minimizers of the max function and the corresponding minimum values. On this basis, we can define implementable algorithms for the solution of the minimax problem, which are globally convergent at a superlinear convergence rate. Preliminary numerical results are reported.This research was partially supported by the National Research Program on Metodi di ottimizzazione per le decisioni, Ministero dell'Università e della Ricerca Scientifica e Tecnologica, Italy.
