Synthesis of pyrazoles and oxyquinoxalines from 2,4-dioxohexenoales

Condensation of ethyl 2,4-dioxo-6-phenylhex-5-enoates (I; R = H, I; R = Me, I, R = Ph) with various hydrazines yielded ethyl 5-styrylpyrazole-3-carboxylates (III), which were hydrolyzed to the acids (IV), and ozonized to 5-keto pyrazole esters (VI) and acids (VII). Reduction of the 5-formylpyrazoles (VI; R = II) with borohydride afforded the 5-hydroxymethyl derivatives (VIII). The same 2,4-dioxohexenoates (I) when treated with o-phenylenediamine gave 2-oxy-quinoxalines (V; R = H, V; R = Me, V; R = Ph). The uv spectra data of these compounds are given.     

A cluster of many small holes with negative imaginary surface impedances may generate a negative refraction index

We deal with the scattering of an acoustic medium modeled by an index of refraction n varying in a bounded region Ω of and equal to unity outside Ω. This region is perforated with an extremely large number of small holes D_m's of maximum radius a, a << 1, modeled by surface impedance functions. Precisely, we are in the regime described by the number of holes of the order M:=O(a^{β ? 2}), the minimum distance between the holes is d ～ a^t, and the surface impedance functions of the form λ_m～λ_m,0a^?β with β > 0 and λ_m,0 being constants and eventually complex numbers. Under some natural conditions on the parameters β,t, and λ_m,0, we characterize the equivalent medium generating approximately the same scattered waves as the original perforated acoustic medium. We give an explicit error estimate between the scattered waves generated by the perforated medium and the equivalent one, respectively, as a→0. As applications of these results, we discuss the following findings:

Suites récurrentes linéaires : terme général et idempotents

In this Note, we show essentially two results. The first one consists in showing that the algebra of linear recurrence sequences is the direct sum of two sets. The second result consists in giving a characterisation of the idempotents of this algebra.     

On near-optimal necessary and sufficient conditions for forward-backward stochastic systems with jumps,with applications to finance

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions of near-optimality for nonlinear systems governed by forward-backward stochastic differential equations with controlled jump processes (FBSDEJs in short). The set of controls under consideration is necessarily convex. The proof of our result is based on Ekeland’s variational principle and continuity in some sense of the state and adjoint processes with respect to the control variable. We prove that under an additional hypothesis, the near-maximum condition on the Hamiltonian function is a sufficient condition for near-optimality. At the end, as an application to finance, mean-variance portfolio selection mixed with a recursive utility optimization problem is given. Mokhtar Hafay

The Topkis-Veinott algorithm for solving nonlinear programs with lower and upper bounded variables

In this paper we consider a nonlinear programming problem of the form to minimize f(x) subject to a x b, where f is a differentiable function on E_n and a and b are fixed vectors in E_n. We develop a variation of the feasible direction algorithm of Topkis and Veinott for solving the above problem and provide explicit expressions of the optimal directions for a family of direction-finding problems using different normalization constraints. We show that the algorithm converges to a Kuhn-Tucker point. The reported computational results indicate efficiency of the algorithm. It also indicates the strong effect of the form of the normalization constraint on convergence properties.     

Regio‐ and Stereoselective Biomimetic Synthesis of Oligostilbenoid Dimers from Resveratrol Analogues: Influence of the Solvent,Oxidant, and Substitution

Oligostilbenoids are polyphenols that are widely distributed in nature with multifaceted biological activities. To achieve biomimetic synthesis of unnatural derivatives, we subjected three resveratrol analogues to oligomerization by means of one‐electron oxidants. Upon varying the metal oxidant (AgOAc, CuBr₂, FeCl₃ ? 6 H₂O, FeCl₃ ? 6 H₂O/NaI, PbO₂, VOF₃), the solvent (over the whole range of polarities), and the oxygenated substitution pattern of the starting material, stilbenoid oligomers with totally different carbon skeletons were obtained. Here we propose to explain the determinism of the type of skeleton produced with the aid of hard and soft acid/base concepts in conjunction with the solvating properties of the solvents and the preferred alignment by the effect of π stacking.     

Convergence to equilibrium for linear spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with hard and soft potentials: A semigroup approach in L1‐spaces

We investigate the large time behavior of solutions to the spatially homogeneous linear Boltzmann equation from a semigroup viewpoint. Our analysis is performed in some (weighted) L¹‐spaces. We deal with both the cases of hard and soft potentials (with angular cut‐off). For hard potentials, we provide a new proof of the fact that, in weighted L¹‐spaces with exponential or algebraic weights, the solutions converge exponentially fast towards equilibrium. Our approach uses weak‐compactness arguments combined with recent results of the second author on positive semigroups in L¹‐spaces. For soft potentials, in L¹‐spaces, we exploit the convergence to ergodic projection for perturbed substochastic semigroup to show that, for very general initial datum, solutions to the linear Boltzmann equation converges to equilibrium in large time. Moreover, for a large class of initial data, we also prove that the convergence rate is at least algebraic. Notice that, for soft potentials, no exponential rate of convergence is expected because of the absence of spectral gap.
