Transformation of Wiener measure under anticipative flows

Summary LetT()=+F() be a transformation from the Wiener space to itself with the range ofF() assumed to be in the Cameron-Martin space. The absolute continuity and the density function associated withT is considered;T is assumed to be embedded in or defined through a parameterizationT _t =+F _t () andF _t is assumed to be differentiable int. The paper deals first with the case where the range of thet-derivative ofF _t () is also in the Cameron-Martin space and new representations for the Radon-Nikodym derivative and the Carleman-Fredholm determinant are derived. The case where thet-derivative ofF _t is not in the Cameron-Martin space is considered next and results on the absolute continuity and the density function, under conditions which are considerably weaker than previously known conditions, are presented.The work of the second author was supported by the fund for promotion of research at the Technion     

Symmetric orbits of orthogonal Plücker actions and triviality of their second order envelopes

The orbits of Lie groups acting in Euclidean spaces by isometries are extrinsically symmetric iff they are parallel, i.e. satisfy % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafeart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaeSijHikaaa!3764!\[\mathbb{Z}\]h = 0.

Noncommutative Geometry and Integrable Models

A construction of conservation laws for -models in two dimensions is generalized in the framework of noncommutative geometry of commutative algebras. This is done by replacing theordinary calculus of differential forms with other differentialcalculi and introducing an analogue of the Hodge operator on thelatter. The general method is illustrated with several examples.     

Application of Multivariate Calibration Techniques to HPLC Data for Quantitative Analysis of a Binary Mixture of Hydrochlorathiazide and Losartan in Tablets

New multivariate approaches have been applied to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with multiwavelength photodiode-array (PDA) detection. Multivariate calibration techniques such as partial least squares (PLS), principal component regression (PCR), classical least squares (CLS), and inverse least squares (ILS) was subjected to HPLC data for simultaneous quantitative analysis of synthetic binary mixtures and a commercial tablet formulation containing hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) and losartan potassium (LST). The combined use of HPLC and multivariate calibrations has been denoted HPLC–CLS, HPLC–ILS, HPLC–PCR, and HPLC–PLS. Successful chromatographic separation of the two active compounds and enalapril maleate, used as internal standard (IS), was accomplished by means of a 4.6 mm i.d. × 250 mm, 5 m particle, Waters Symmetry C₁₈ reversed-phase column and a mobile phase consisting of 60:40 acetate buffer (0.2 M, pH 4.8)–acetonitrile (v/v, 60:40). HPLC data based on the ratio of analyte peak areas to IS peak area were obtained by PDA detection at five-wavelengths (250, 255, 260, 265, and 270 nm). The HPLC–CLS, HPLC–ILS, HPLC–PCR, and HPLC–PLS calibration plots for hydrochlorothiazide and losartan potassium were constructed separately by using the peak-area ratios corresponding to the concentrations of each active compound. The HPLC multivariate calibrations obtained were tested for different synthetic mixtures containing HCT and LST in the presence of the IS. These multivariate chromatographic methods were also applied to a commercial pharmaceutical dosage form containing HCT and LST. The results obtained from the multivariate calibrations were compared with those obtained by use of another, classical HPLC method using single-wavelength detection.Revised: 29 September 2004 and 4 January 2005     

Transition Metal Ion-binding Properties of a 14-Membered N2O2S2- Macrobicyclic Ligand

The selective liquid–liquid extraction of various transition metal cations from the aqueous phase to the organic phase was carried out using a 14-membered N₂O₂S₂-macrobicycle. Metal picrates such as Pb²⁺, Co²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺,Cu²⁺ and Cd²⁺ were used in this extraction studies. It was found that the ligand showed moderate selectivity towards Pb²⁺ only among the other metals. The extraction constant (log K _ex) was determined to be 13.8 for Pb²⁺ complex.     

Ionized water clusters,n = 2 to 6: A high-accuracy study of structures and energetics

Ionized water clusters, , have been of remarkable interest owing to their crucial roles in many chemical and biological processes. Small cationic water clusters , n = 2 to 6 serve as reasonable models for understanding the nature of the ionized water. In this study, employing high-level ab initio quantum chemical methods, such as the density-fitted orbital-optimized linearized coupled-cluster doubles (DF-OLCCD), coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD), and coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples [CCSD(T)], a high-accuracy study of structures and energetics for cationic water clusters [, n = 2-6] is presented. In this study, 2 dimer, 8 trimer, 18 tetramer, 23 pentamer, and 25 hexamer clusters are reported. Most of the structures considered are reported for the first time. Relative, binding, and vertical attachment energies (VAEs), for the first time, are presented at the complete basis set (CBS) limit, extrapolating energies of the aug-cc-pVTZ and aug-cc-pVQZ basis sets, to provide the most accurate energetics to date. Our results demonstrate that as cluster size increases, the VAE value decreases, which indicates that large-size clusters better compensate for the electron deficiency compared with small-size clusters. The VAE values for pentamer and hexamer clusters are 118.5 to 165.5 and 121.9 to 153.7 kcal mol⁻¹, respectively. Further, our binding energy results, at the CCSD(T)/CBS level, indicate strong bindings in cationic clusters due to hydrogen bond interactions. The average binding energy per water molecule varies from −16.6 to −21.8 kcal mol⁻¹ for the clusters considered. Hence, we present the most extensive and accurate study on ionized water clusters to date. Further, our results indicate that the DF-OLCCD method is very promising for ionic molecular clusters, and its accuracy approaches the CCSD(T) quality. The inexpensive analytic gradients of DF-OLCCD, compared with CCSD(T), make it very helpful for high-accuracy studies of molecular geometries.
