Unitarization of Körner-Kuroda model of electromagnetic structure of octet 1/2+ baryons

The Körner-Kuroda model of the electromagnetic structure of octet 1/2⁺ baryons is restored on a more topical physical basis. Electromagnetic radii of baryons under consideration are calculated and compared with other model predictions. By an incorporation of a two-cut approximation of correct form factor analytic properties and nonzero vector-meson widths, the Körner-Kuroda model is unitarized, providing in this manner imaginary parts of the octet 1/2⁺ baryon form factors to be nonzero just starting from a branch point corresponding to the lowest threshold.     

Local convergence of quasi-Newton methods for B-differentiable equations

We study local convergence of quasi-Newton methods for solving systems of nonlinear equations defined by B-differentiable functions. We extend the classical linear and superlinear convergence results for general quasi-Newton methods as well as for Broyden's method. We also show how Broyden's method may be applied to nonlinear complementarity problems and illustrate its computational performance on two small examples.     

Time irregularity of generalized Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes

This Note is concerned with the properties of solutions to a linear evolution equation perturbed by a cylindrical Lévy process. It turns out that solutions, under rather weak requirements, do not have a càdlàg modification. Some natural open questions are also stated.     

Radiocaesium pollution of fly agaric Amanita muscaria in fruiting bodies decreases with developmental stage

Amanita muscaria collected from a forested area in northern Poland in 2015 were analysed for activity concentrations of ¹³⁷Cs and ⁴⁰K. Total K concentration values were calculated from ⁴⁰K data. Mushrooms were grouped in six fruiting bodies size classes regarding to their developmental stage. The ¹³⁷Cs activity concentrations declined in A. muscaria as the fruiting bodies maturated. The contents of ⁴⁰K/K activity remained constant in caps at different developmental stage, while for stipes an increase was around twofold (⁴⁰K from 925?±?55 Bq kg^?1 dry biomass in the baby individuals and 1600?±?63–1700?±?53 Bq kg^?1 dry biomass in two oldest classes). A. muscaria is a weak accumulator of ¹³⁷Cs, while a steep drop in activity concentrations of this nuclide in the fruiting bodies as they maturate has not been reported earlier for mushrooms. Clearly, a fate of ¹³⁷Cs in A. muscaria is highly different from that of ⁴⁰K/K that is an essential element to fungi. In parallel, an observed increase in the content of ⁴⁰K/K in stipes of fruiting bodies with developmental state can be related to its ‘hardening’ and more fibrous nature with age and basic function to support the cap, but this has not been studied.

Deformed preprojective algebras of generalized Dynkin type

We introduce the class of deformed preprojective algebras of generalized Dynkin graphs (), (), , , and () and prove that it coincides with the class of all basic connected finite-dimensional self-injective algebras for which the inverse Nakayama shift of every non-projective simple module is isomorphic to its third syzygy .

     

LocalH-theorem for a kinetic variational theory

A localH-theorem is derived for a recently proposed extension of Enskog kinetic theory to a dense model fluid composed of particles with interactions extending beyond a hard core.On leave from: Katedra Fizyki, Uniwersytetu Szczecinskiego, 70-451 Szczecin, Poland.     

Tame kernels of cubic cyclic fields

There are many results describing the structure of the tame kernels of algebraic number fields and relating them to the class numbers of appropriate fields. In the present paper we give some explicit results on tame kernels of cubic cyclic fields. Table 1 collects the results of computations of the structure of the tame kernel for all cubic fields with only one ramified prime

In particular, we investigate the structure of the 7-primary and 13-primary parts of the tame kernels. The theoretical tools we develop, based on reflection theorems and singular primary units, enable the determination of the structure even of 7-primary and 13-primary parts of the tame kernels for all fields as above. The results are given in Tables 2 and 3.

     

On linear congruence relations for Kubota-Leopoldt 2-adic L-functions

Our purpose in the paper is to find the most general linear congruence relation of the Hardy-Williams type for linear combinations of special values of Kubota-Leopoldt 2-adic L-functions L₂(k,χω^1−k) with k running over any finite subset of not necessarily consisting of consecutive integers (see Acta Arith. 47 (1986) 263; Publ. Math. Fac. Sci. Besançon, Théorie des Nombres, 1995/1996; Publ. Math. Debrecen 56 (2000) 677 and cf. Mathematics and Its Applications, Vol. 511, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht, Boston, London, 2000). If k runs over finite subsets of consisting of consecutive integers see Compositio Math. 111 (1998) 289; Publ. Math. Debrecen 56 (2000) 677; Hardy and Williams, 1986; Compositio Math. 75 (1990) 271; Acta Arith. 71 (1995) 273; 52 (1989) 147; J. Number Theory 34 (1990) 362. In order to obtain the most general congruences of this type we make use of divisibility properties of the generalized Vandermonde determinants obtained in Spie? et al. (Divisibility properties of generalized Vandermonde and Cauchy determinants, Preprint 627, Institute of Mathematics, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, 2002). This allows us to simplify our main Theorem 2 and obtain Theorem 3 where the most general form of the linear congruence relation is given.
