Simultaneous best approximation by three polynomials

Let [a, b] be any interval and let p₀, p₁, p_k be any three polynomials of degrees 0, 1, k, respectively, where k 2. A set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an f in C[a, b] such that p_i is the best approximation to f from the space of all polynomials of degree less than or equal to i, for all i = 0, 1, k, is given.     

Influence of exciton-exciton interaction with spin paired charge carriers and exciton-lattice interaction on the surface properties of crystalline solids

Applying tight-binding approximation and spin pairing of like charge carriers in a pair of excitons created in a lattice, the possibility of forming a bound exciton-exciton state is studied. It is found that, provided there exists strong exciton-lattice interaction, such a bound state may be formed and its energy may lie within the valence band deforming the material into a crystalline solid with no energy gap. Lowering of the energy is calculated in naphthalene and anthracene crystals where some experimental results are known. The excess energy released after the formation of such bound state can be adequate, depending on the material, to desorb neutral atoms or eject of electrons from surfaces.     

Focusing of shock waves in a highly viscous fluid

The method of combined asymptotic expansions is used to solve the problem of the focusing of a shock wave (in a weakly compressible medium of high viscosity. Asymptotic forms of the solution are constructed in a number of spatial zones. The focusing zone is described by its asymptotic form obtained by combining it with the solution corresponding to viscous geometrical acoustics. The reflection of a shock wave formed as a result of velocity jump near one of the foci of the ellipsoid of revolution is discussed as an example. Analytical relationships descrbing the focusing zone around the second focus are obtained. It is shown that at the focus itself the wave profile has an antisymmetric form, and the compression wave is followed by a rarefaction wave of the same form.     

On an integral equation of the problem for an elastic strip with a slit

A new singular integral equation is obtained that describes the elastic equilibrium of a strip with both an inner and an edge slit (crack) and has a considerable advantage over existing equations /1–9/, etc.) from the viewpoint of a numerical realization and clarification of the analytical relationship with an analogous equation for a half-plane. Numerical results are given of a computation of the stress intensity coefficients at the tips of the inner and edge cracks that refine data in the literature.     

Synthesis of cationic molybdenum and cobalt diene complexes from neutral allyl compounds by ligand exchange in a strong protic acid

Conclusions The allyl ligand in neutral molybdenum and cobalt complexes is readily exchanged by dienes in the presence of a strong protic acid with the formation of cationic complexes. This exchange is facilitated by an increase in the basicity of the starting compounds.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1655–1657, July, 1987.
