Laguerre expansion on the Heisenberg group and Fourier-Bessel transform on C~n Dedicated to Professor Sheng GONG on the occasion of his 75th birthday

Given a principal value convolution on the Heisenberg group Hn = Cn×R, we study the relation between its Laguerre expansion and the Fourier-Bessel expansion of its limit on Cn. We also calculate the Dirichlet kernel for the Laguerre expansion on the group Hn.     

Efficient microwave induced direct α-halogenation of carbonyl compounds

A novel and direct method for the synthesis of α-halocarbonyl compounds using sequential treatment of carbonyl compounds with [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene followed by magnesium halides under solvent-free microwave irradiation conditions is described.     

Ternary univariate curvature-preserving subdivision

We present an interpolating, univariate subdivision scheme which preserves the discrete curvature and tangent direction at each step of subdivision. Since the polygon have a geometric information of some original (in some sense) curve as a discrete curvature, we can expect that the limit curve has the same curvature at each vertex as the control polygon. We estimate the curvature bound of odd vertices and give an error estimate for restoring a curve from sampled vertices on curves.     

Enclosure results for second-order relative spectra by elementary means

Motivated by the general approach due to Shargorodsky we derive enclosure results for the second-order relative spectrum of bounded selfadjoint operators by studying quadratic operator pencils. The quality of the results is discussed by means of a simple example.

     

Rigorous calculation of pixel and inter-electrode capacitances of thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays using three-dimensional simulation

We have rigorously calculated for the first time all the inter-electrode and pixel capacitances of Thin-Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Displays using the electrical energy distribution inside a liquid crystal cell. The energy distribution is obtained from the three-dimensional profiles of potential distribution and molecular director. The dynamic equation of continuum theory for liquid crystals is described in a tensorial form in order to maintain the equivalence of n and -n . The effects of lateral fields generated by multiple electrodes of finite sizes are taken into account in the simulation. As a numerical technique, we used a finite difference method which is suitable for the highly non-linear equations. As a result, we confirmed that the pixel capacitance for our pixel structure is about 40% larger than that of the conventional approach. It is also revealed that the gate-common and gate-data inter-electrode capacitances are not negligible.
