Lattices of processes for graphs

The structure of the lattice of processes of a finite digraph with entries is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the isomorphism of a given lattice to the lattice of processes of a certain digraph are obtained. Bibliography: 5 titles. Translated by K. V. Shakhbazyan.

Collisions for the quantum Coulomb Hamiltonian

We study the propagation of phase space singularities for the time dependent Schrödinger equation with potential having Coulomb-type singularities in space dimension equal tothree. We prove that the singularities (frequency set) of the solution are reflected by a Coulomb center exactly as in the classical problem, i.e. the frequency set follows theregularized trajectories of Classical Mechanics after a collision.     

Method of fictitious regions for second-order quasilinear elliptical equations

We consider the application of the fictitious region method to solve the first and second boundary-value problems for a second-order quasilinear elliptical equation. Rate of convergence bounds are obtained for two versions of the fictitious region method.Translated from Vychislitel'naya i Prikladnaya Matematika, No. 56, pp. 7–14, 1985     

Calculation of the dynamic temperature characteristics of a heated graphite tube used in electrothermal atomic absorption measurements

A method and computer program were developed for calculating the temperature of any part of a graphite furnace tube at any instant of time after onset of the heating cycle. Results for tubes of the Massman design show large differences in spatial temperature distributions during and at the end of the heating cycle when equilibrium is reached. When constant current is applied to contoured tubes, greater heating rates at the tube centres are obtained than with standard tubes.     

Role of orientation in kinetics of nucleation and growth of crystals in polymers

A theoretical framework is provided for generalizing the inferences drawn from the results of earlier experimental studies of kinetics of crystallization in oriented poly(ethylene terephthalate). The framework is obtained by combining extensions of classical nucleation theories in polymers^3,4 and a theory of crystal growth with anisotropic incorporation of segments into growing crystals.¹⁵ It is shown that, while a very strong dependence of rate of primary nucleation on orientation does exist, there is a only a much weaker dependence of rate of crystal growth on the orientation of the crystallizing polymer. The theoretical formulation provided here would allow qualitative estimates for comparison with experiments.
