A simple and realistic triton wave function

We propose a simple triton wave function that consists of a product of three correlation operators operating on a three-body spin-isospin state. This wave function is formally similar to that used in the recent variational theories of nuclear matter, the main difference being in the long-range behavior of the correlation operators. Variational calculations are carried out with the Reid potential, using this wave function in the so-called “symmetrized product” and “independent pair” forms. The triton energy and density distributions obtained with the symmetrized product wave function agree with those obtained in Faddeev and other variational calculations using harmonic oscillator states. The proposed wave function and calculational methods can be easily generalized to treat the four-nucleon α-particle.     

Proof schemata in Hilbert-type axiomatic theories

A derivation schema in an axiomatic theory is defined as a finite sequence of analysis of applications of rules and axioms. A derivation by a schema U is any derivation whose list of analyses of applications of rules and axioms is precisely U. A derivation schema is admissible if a corresponding derivation can be constructed. Let G be a Hilbert-type axiomatic theory. The following problems are considered: a) to decide whether a given derivation scheme is admissible in G; b) to decide whether a formula is derivable by a given derivation schema in G. In the usual formulations of the predicate calculus without equality, the first problem is shown to be decidable, the second undecidable.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Symmetric normal wave spectrum in an orthotropic layer

A solution is constructed for an orthotropic layer with free plane faces, that corresponds to the plane elastic waves symmetric over the thickness. The dynamical reconstruction of the normal wave spectrum during rotation of the wave vector from one to another elastically equivalent direction is investigated on the basis of a numerical analysis of the dispersion equation.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Prikladnaya Mekhanika, No. 19, pp. 116–121, 1988.

A marker method for the solution of the damped Burgers' equation

A new method for the solution of the damped Burgers' equation is described. The marker method relies on the definition of a convective field associated with the underlying partial differential equation; the information about the approximate solution is associated with the response of an ensemble of markers to this convective field. Some key aspects of the method, such as the selection of the shape function and the initial loading, are discussed in some details. The marker method is applicable to a general class of nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2006     

Fully closed mappings and their applications

This survey is devoted to the theory of fully closed mappings and their applications. The theoretical part includes a systematic study of relations between fully closed mappings and fiber products, inverse systems, and resolutions. The projective properties of fully closed mappings are studied. The applications are largely related to dimension and cardinal functions. The results are mainly due to the author and his students. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 9, No. 4, pp. 105–235, 2003.

Determination of the similarities between a sample and the likeness of microparticle size distribution in a disperse system

A method is proposed for determining the similarities and differences between the experimental distribution of particles in a disperse system with respect to a significant feature-particle size (sample) and the corresponding distribution (likeness), selected from the diversity of theoretical distributions with positive and negative asymmetry. The aim of the comparison is to extract the necessary information about the nature of the internal processes in the disperse system evolving as a result of the Ostwald reaction coagulation of microparticles. The procedure of comparing the distributions is illustrated on the example of the histogram of disperse Al₃Mg₂ particles of an aluminum-magnesium alloy heated isothermally at 430°C.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 80–84, December, 1991.
