Non-singular space-times with a negative cosmological constant: V. Boson stars

We prove existence of large families of solutions of Einstein-complex scalar field equations with a negative cosmological constant, with a stationary or static metric and a time-periodic complex scalar field.     

On symmetric stochastic games of resource extraction with weakly continuous transitions

We study stochastic games of resource extraction, in which the players have identical preferences. The transition probability is either non-atomic or a convex combination of transition probabilities depending on the investment with coefficients also dependent on the investment. Our approach covers the unbounded utility case, which was not examined in this class of games beforehand. We prove the existence of a stationary Markov perfect equilibrium in a non-randomised class of strategies.     

Highly enantioselective asymmetric reactions involving zinc ions promoted by chiral aziridine alcohols

Enantiomerically pure, chiral secondary and tertiary aziridine alcohols (including the aziridine analogue of ProPhenol—AziPhenol) have proven to be highly effective catalysts for enantioselective asymmetric reactions in the presence of zinc ions, including arylation of aromatic aldehydes, epoxidation of chalcone and addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes, leading to the desired chiral products in high chemical yields (up to 90%) and with ee’s up to 90%. A higher catalytic activity of Prophenol-type bis(aziridine alcohol) in the aforementioned asymmetric transformations has been demonstrated.
