On the evaluation at (<Emphasis Type="Italic">j</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">j</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>) of the Tutte polynomial of a ternary matroid

F. Jaeger has shown that up to a ± sign the evaluation at (j, j ²) of the Tutte polynomial of a ternary matroid can be expressed in terms of the dimension of the bicycle space of a representation over GF(3). We give a short algebraic proof of this result, which moreover yields the exact value of ±, a problem left open in Jaeger's paper. It follows that the computation of t(j, j ²) is of polynomial complexity for a ternary matroid.E. Gioan: C.N.R.S., MontpellierM. Las Vergnas: C.N.R.S., Paris     

Study on the microstructure and wear resistance of the composite coatings fabricated on Ti-6Al-4V under different processing conditions

Composite coatings mainly containing titanium carbides and borides were produced by laser surface alloying of Ti-6Al-4V with graphite and boron mixed powders. The test results show that the coatings have higher hardness (1600-1700 HV_0.1) and are more resistant to wear than the as-received sample. Laser scanning speed and the content of alloying elements (weight ratio of graphite to boron) have an effect on both the microstructure and the wear resistance of the coatings. TEM results show that strip titanium carbides and borides grow alternately and thus restrain the formation of coarse needle-like TiB and dendritic TiC crystals produced by laser alloying of titanium alloys with boron and graphite separately.     

Methane as a Selectivity Booster in the Arc‐Discharge Synthesis of Endohedral Fullerenes: Selective Synthesis of the Single‐Molecule Magnet Dy2TiC@C80 and Its Congener Dy2TiC2@C80

The use of methane as a reactive gas dramatically increases the selectivity of the arc‐discharge synthesis of M‐Ti‐carbide clusterfullerenes (M=Y, Nd, Gd, Dy, Er, Lu). Optimization of the process parameters allows the synthesis of Dy₂TiC@C₈₀‐I and its facile isolation in a single chromatographic step. A new type of cluster with an endohedral acetylide unit, M₂TiC₂@C₈₀, is discovered along with the second isomer of M₂TiC@C₈₀. Dy₂TiC@C₈₀‐(I,II) and Dy₂TiC₂@C₈₀‐I are shown to be single‐molecule magnets (SMM), but the presence of the second carbon atom in the cluster Dy₂TiC₂@C₈₀ leads to substantially poorer SMM properties.     

Topochemical Transformations of CaX2 (X=C,Si, Ge) to Form Free‐Standing Two‐Dimensional Materials

Topochemical transformations of layered materials CaX₂ (X=Si, Ge) are the method of choice for the high‐yield synthesis of pristine, defect‐free two‐dimensional systems silicane and germanane, which have advanced electronic properties. Based on solid‐state dispersion‐corrected calculations, mechanisms for such transformations are elucidated that provide an in‐depth understanding of phase transition in these layered materials. While formation of such layered materials is highly favorable for silicane and germanane, a barrier of 1.2 eV in the case of graphane precludes its synthesis from CaC₂ topochemically. The energy penalty required for distorting linear acetylene into a trans‐bent geometry accounts for this barrier. In contrast it is highly favorable in the heavier analogues, resulting in barrierless topochemical generation of silicane and germanane. Photochemical generation of the trans‐bent structure of acetylene in its first excited state (S₁) can directly generate graphane through a barrierless condensation. Unlike the buckled structure of silicene, the phase‐h of CaSi₂ with perfectly planar silicene layers exhibits the Dirac cones at the high symmetry points K and H. Interestingly, topochemical acidification of the cubic phase of calcium carbide is predicted to generate the previously elusive platonic hydrocarbon, tetrahedrane.     

A novel pseudo simulated moving bed with solvent gradient for ternary separations

A novel pseudo simulated moving bed was suggested to separate a ternary mixture. A solvent gradient was created to make the solvent strength decreasing from zone II to zone III. Under suitable conditions, the least retained solute A moved forward and the most retained solute C moved backward in zones II and III whereas the medium retained solute B moved forward in zone II but backward in zone III to be trapped in the two zones consequently. Once the columns in zones II and III were saturated with solute B, the solvent dissolving the feed was introduced at the feed port to remove solute A from the raffinate-port and solute C from the extract-port. Finally, solute B was recovered from the extract port by stopping the liquid flow in zone II. This scheme was validated by the successful separation of dihydrocapsaicin from capsaicinoids.

Further explorations into ternary complementary pairs

In [R. Craigen, C. Koukouvinos, A theory of ternary complementary pairs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 96 (2001) 358-375], we proposed a systematic approach to the theory of ternary complementary pairs (TCPs) and showed how all pairs known then could be constructed using a single elementary product, the natural equivalence relations, and a handful of pairs which we called primitive. We also introduced more new primitive pairs than could be inferred previously, concluding with some conjectures reflecting the patterns that were beginning to arise in light of the new approach.In this paper we take what appears to be the natural next step, by investigating these patterns among those lengths and weights that are within easy computational distance from the last length considered therein, length 14. We give complete results up to length 21, and partial results up to length 28. (Ironically, although we proceed analytically by weight first then length, for computational reasons we are bound, in this empirical investigation, to proceed according to length first.)Thus we provide support for the previous conjectures, and shed enough new light to speculate further as to the likely ultimate shape of the theory. Since short term work on TCPs will require massive acquisition of data about small pairs, we also discuss affixes—a computational strategy that arose out of the investigations culminating in this article.
