LP-Abschätzungen und klassische Lösungen für nichtlineare Wellengleichungen II

This paper deals with the global classical solvability of the Cauchy problem for nonlinear wave equations of higher order of the following form where denotes the Laplacian, a real constant, m a positive integer, and f the nonlinearity. Using results of the first part [6] concerning estimations for the kernel of the associated integral equation a priori estimates for certain L^P-norms of the local regular solution are established for higher space dimensions and for a class of nonlinearities satisfying certain growth and positivity conditions. This leads to completely regular solutions by means of the Sobolev embedding theorems.     

Der quadratfreie Kern der Eulerschen φ-Funktion

It is shown by a simple induction that any square-free natural number is the square-free kernel of Euler's -function of infinitely many natural numbers. Furthermore every square-free natural number >1 is the square-free kernel of Euler's -function of infinitely many square-numbers.     

Striktionseigenschaften von Regelscharen imE n

Let ={e(u)|uI} be a one-parameter family of straight lines forming a ruledC ^r-2-surface E ⁿ (n2,r1) without singular generatorse(u) (uI). As a synopsis, a generalization and an improvement of various results already known about the strictional properties of ruled surfaces E ⁿ (especially in the casen=3) the author demonstrates a uniform geometrical way of defining and uniquely obtaining thestriction point S(u) and theparameter of distribution d(u) of a generatore(u) under the minimal assumptions thate(u)E ⁿ (n2) be noncylindrical andr1. Other methods of obtainingS(u) andd(u) are discussed in comparison, and special strictional properties ofskew ruled surfaces E ⁿ are proved.

A variational proof of the Gauss-Bonnet formula

The classical Gauss-Bonnet formula has the form I(g_ij)=2, where I(g_ij) represents a sum of three terms each of which depends on the metric tensor g_ij. It is shown that the first variation I of I(g_ij) with respect to the metric g_ij vanishes and that for the Euclidean metric _ij we have I(_ij)=2. From this the formula I(g_ij)=2 follows. In the process, explicit expressions are obtained for the first variation of each of the three terms which comprise I(g_ij). Furthermore, a general expression for the first variation of a multiple integral whose integrand is a scalar density depending on the metric tensor g_ij and its derivatives up to the second order is obtained with the aid of results of Rund [1].     

Mean value estimates in lattice point theory

LetQ(u) be a positive definite quadratic form inr2 variables with a real symmetric coefficient matrix of determinantD. Given a real vectorb with 0b _j <1, forx>0 letA(x) be the number of lattice points in the ellipsoidQ(u+b)x, letV(x) be the volume of this ellipsoid andP(x)=A(x)–V(x). Let . By introduction of a parameter we shall show how the treatment of estimates onP(x) and onM(x) can be unified.     

Lexicographic quasiconcave multiobjective programming

Summary Letf _i :A R ben real-valued objective functions on a convex setA -K ^m ,K:=R orC, n, mN. Letg: A R ⁿ be defined by , where for eachxA, (i ₁ (x), ..., i _n (x)) is a permutation of (1, ...,n) such that . In this paper we treat the problem of findingx ^*A such that , wherel-max denotes the lexicographic maximum. If the f_i's are strongly quasiconcave we can reduce the problem stepwise until finally it is in the form of a scalar programming problem. Further, we consider conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a solution and discuss the relationship of the problem to the vector maximum (i.e. Pareto) and maxmin (i.e. Chebychev) problems.

Falls dief _i stark quasikonkav sind, läßt sich das Problem stufenweise reduzieren, bis es schließlich die Gestalt eines skalaren Optimierungsproblems annimmt. Wir geben Existenz- und Eindeutigkeitsbedingungen an und besprechen Zusammenhänge mit dem Vektormaximumproblem (d.h. Pareto-Optimierung) und dem Maxmin-Problem (d.h. Tschebyscheff-Optimierung).

Spezifisches Verfahren zur quantitativen CO2-Bestimmung in natürlichen Wässern

The direct determination of CO₂ is often faulty because of certain contents of the natural water. Due to this reason a specific method was worked out. The water to be analysed and distilled water are placed side by side in a gas-tight vessel with an atmosphere free of CO₂, whereby mixing is avoided but gas-exchange is possible. After adjustment to the gas-equilibration the CO₂ content of the distilled water is determined e.g. by titration, measuring of conductivity or other methods, from where the CO₂ content in the natural water is calculated.     

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐Molybdate(II) Anions: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐molybdate‐(II) anions, [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo), which are novel weakly coordinating anions that contain a metal carbonyl/nitrosyl moiety, have been generated in fluorosulfonic acid and completely characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy as well as ESI mass spectrometry. ESI MS measurements performed for the first time on a superacidic solution system unambiguously reveal the formation of the monoanionic, mononuclear W and Mo complexes formulated as [M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo). Multinuclear NMR spectroscopic studies at natural abundance and ¹³C and ¹⁵N enrichment clearly indicate the presence of one CO ligand, two equivalent NO ligands, and two types of nonequivalent SO₃F^? groups in a 2:1 ratio. The IR and Raman spectra reveal that the two equivalent NO ligands have a cis conformation, thus indicating a fac structure. Density functional calculations at the B3LYP level of theory predict that these anions have a singlet ground state (¹A′) with a C_s symmetry along with C–O and N–O vibrational frequencies that are in agreement with the experimental observations. Mulliken population analysis shows that the monovalent negative charge is dispersed on the bulky sphere, the surface of which is covered by all the negatively charged O and F atoms with charge densities much lower than SO₃F^?, suggesting that [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo) are weakly nucleophilic and poorly coordinating anions.
