The essential Lagrangian-Grassmannian and the homotopy type of the Fredholm Lagrangian-Grassmannian

Let H be a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space endowed with a symplectic structure and let L₀⊂H be a Lagrangian subspace. Using the results of [A. Abbondandolo, P. Majer, Infinite dimensional Grassmannians, math.AT/0307192], we show that the Fredholm Lagrangian-Grassmannian FL₀(Λ) has the homotopy type of Gc(L₀), the Grassmannian of all Lagrangian subspaces of H that are compact perturbations of L₀. It is well known that the latter has the homotopy type of the quotient U(∞)/O(∞). As a corollary, we recover a result by B. Booss-Bavnbek and K. Furutani (see [B. Booss-Bavnbek, K. Furutani, Symplectic functional analysis and spectral invariants, Contemp. Math. 242 (1999) 53-83; K. Furutani, Fredholm-Lagrangian-Grassmannian and the Maslov index, J. Geom. Phys. 51 (2004) 269-331]) that the L₀-Maslov index is an isomorphism between the fundamental group of FL₀(Λ) and the integers.     

On perfectly normal dense subspaces of products

Let M be a separable metric space consisting of more than one point. We construct perfectly normal dense subspaces Z⊂Mc² and (under additional set-theoretic assumption) Y⊂Mc which are not collectionwise Hausdorff.     

The Sheffer group and the Riordan group

We define the Sheffer group of all Sheffer-type polynomials and prove the isomorphism between the Sheffer group and the Riordan group. An equivalence of the Riordan array pair and generalized Stirling number pair is also presented. Finally, we discuss a higher dimensional extension of Riordan array pairs.     

Some new integral inequalities of Bellman–Bihari type with delay for discontinuous functions

In this article we investigate some integral functional inequalities of Bellman–Bihari type for piecewise-continuous functions with some fixed points of discontinuity. We also prove a new analogy and generalization of results which were obtained by Bellman and Bihari to integro-sum inequalities with delay and discontinuities that do not belong to Lipschitz’s type.     

A convergent approach to the formal total synthesis of hemibrevetoxin B

A convergent synthesis of the key synthetic intermediate of hemibrevetoxin B was achieved via the intramolecular allylation of an α-chloroacetoxy ether and subsequent ring-closing metathesis.     

A two-step biomimetic synthesis of antimalarial robustadials A and B

The antimalarial robustadials A and B have been synthesized in two steps starting from commercially available phloroglucinol comprising a key biomimetic three-component reaction that involves in situ generation of an o-quinone methide via Knoevenagel condensation and subsequent Diels-Alder cycloaddition with (−)-β-pinene.

Roots,iterations and logarithms of formal automorphisms

In this paper it is proved that having a logarithm is equivalent to having roots of arbitrary order in the group of automorphisms of a formal power series ring, and in algebraic subgroups too
