Complex homogeneous splines on the torus

We construct functions M_α which are piecewise homogeneous polynomials on the (d+1)-dimensional torus U^d+1. These functions possess complete symmetry with respect to the independent variables. The symmetry and homogeneous relations for these functions are exploited to obtain a recurrence relation and explicit representations. Furthermore, we show that , where ω=e^12x/k, 0≤j_t≤k−1, are linearly independent. By restricting M_α to U^d, we obtain the complex analogue of polynomial box splines on a (d+1)-direction mesh on U^d, which is a multivariate analogue of B-splines on the circle studied by I.J. Schoenberg^[8].     

Polarization density matrix forZ decay intoWff' with generalZWW couplings

We give the polarization density matrix ofZ andW for the decay processZ ⁰→Wff' with generalZWW couplings. The matrix elements are expressed in terms of kinematical invariants so that they can be readily used in \(p\bar p \to Z^0 W\) as well. Using these formulas, we analyze the possibilities of probing theZWW couplings through the decay of polarizedZ ⁰.     

The synthesis of 1,4-diazacycl[3,2,2]azine

The diazaanalog of “cycl[3,2,2]azine”, “1,4-diazacycl[3,2,2]azine” (1,4,7b-triazacyclopent-[cd]indene) and its 2-methyl derivative were prepared. These compounds are subject to facile acid-catalyzed hydrolysis affording substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines.     

Determination of inosine 5′-monophosphate and guanosine 5′-monophosphate in pig feed by capillary zone electrophoresis

A capillary zone clectrophoresis method was developed for the determination of IMP and GIMP, commonly used as flavor enhancers in poultry feed, in a real sample of complex composition. A baseline separation of inosine 5′-monophosphate and guanosine 5′-monophosphate was achieved within 10 min and the other components in the sample did not interfere with the separation. Quantitative results obtained from pig feed samples are presented. The separation conditions and experimental reproducibility are also discussed.
