Oriented local entropies for expansive actions by commuting automorphisms

Given an expansive action α of ?² by automorphisms of a compact connected metrizable abelian groupX, we show how the entropy of the action may be decomposed into local contributions, 1 $$h(\alpha ) = \sum\limits_{p \leqslant \infty } {h_p^{(a,b)} } (\alpha )$$ in which the summandh _p ^(a,b) (α) represents thep-adic entropy due to arithmetic or geometric hyperbolicity in the direction (a, b). We recognize thep-adic contribution as an integral over thep-adic unit circle, in analogy with the global counterpart. As (a, b) changes, the decomposition (1) changes only when the line through (a, b) passes through one of a finite collection of critical directions, which are explicitly identified.     

Reactivity patterns of thermally stable, terminal, electrophilic phosphinidene complexes towards diazoalkanes: oxidation at the phosphorus centre and formation of P-bound eta1-phosphaazine, eta1-phosphaalkene and eta3-diazaphosphaallene complexes

The thermally stable, terminal phosphinidene complexes [CpM(CO)2(eta1-PNiPr2)]AlCl4(Cp= Cp, Cp*; M = Fe) and [Cp*M(CO)3(eta1-PNiPr2)]AlCl4 (M = Cr, Mo, W) react with Ph2C=N=N to form terminal P-coordinated eta1-phosphaazine and eta3-diazaphosphaallene ligands, respectively, whereas [CpFe(CO)2(eta1-PNiPr2)]AlCl4 reacts with Me3SiCHN2 affording a terminal phosphorus bound eta1-phosphaalkene complex.
