Functional equations on abelian groups with involution

Summary We produce complete solution formulas of selected functional equations of the formf(x +y) ±f(x + σ (ν)) = Σ _I ² =₁ g _l (x)h _l (y),x, y∈G, where the functionsf,g ₁,h ₁ to be determined are complex valued functions on an abelian groupG and where σ:G→G is an involution ofG. The special case of σ=−I encompasses classical functional equations like d’Alembert’s, Wilson’s first generalization of it, Jensen’s equation and the quadratic equation. We solve these equations, the equation for symmetric second differences in product form and similar functional equations for a general involution σ.     

Bouquet and join theorems for disentanglements

The disentanglement of certain augmentations is shown to be the topological join of a disentanglement and a Milnor fibre. The kth disentanglement of a finite map is defined and for corank 1 maps from ℂ ⁿ to ℂ ^{n +1} it is shown that they are homotopically equivalent to a wedge of spheres. Applications to the Mond conjecture are given. Oblatum 24-VII-2000 & 5-VII-2001?Published online: 12 October 2001     

To the spectral theory of Krein systems

We consider the Krein systems. For the set of Stummel class coefficients, we establish the criterion in terms of these coefficients for the system to satisfy the Szegö-type estimate on the spectral measure.     

Resolution of Secondary α-Ketoalcohols Catalyzed by Lipase and Inversion of Stereochemistry

Several α-ketoalcohols of synthetic value were resolved using lipase as a catalyst. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) provided the best rate of hydrolysis and kinetic differentiation. One of these optically pure α-ketoalcohol was converted to (5)-ibuprofen in good optical purity. The stereospecific inversion of (R)-alcohol to (S)-alcohol is described.     

Joint extension of two theorems of Kotzig on 3-polytopes

The weight of an edge in a graph is the sum of the degrees of its end-vertices. It is proved that in each 3-polytope there exists either an edge of weight at most 13 for which both incident faces are triangles, or an edge of weight at most 10 which is incident with a triangle, or else an edge of weight at most 8. All the bounds 13, 10, and 8 are sharp and attained independently of each other.     

Enumeration of three-dimensional convex polygons

A self-avoiding polygon (SAP) on a graph is an elementary cycle. Counting SAPs on the hypercubic lattice ℤ ^d withd≥2, is a well-known unsolved problem, which is studied both for its combinatorial and probabilistic interest and its connections with statistical mechanics. Of course, polygons on ℤ ^d are defined up to a translation, and the relevant statistic is their perimeter. A SAP on ℤ ^d is said to beconvex if its perimeter is “minimal”, that is, is exactly twice the sum of the side lengths of the smallest hyper-rectangle containing it. In 1984, Delest and Viennot enumerated convex SAPs on the square lattice [6], but no result was available in a higher dimension. We present an elementar approach to enumerate convex SAPs in any dimension. We first obtain a new proof of Delest and Viennot's result, which explains combinatorially the form of the generating function. We then compute the generating function for convex SAPs on the cubic lattice. In a dimension larger than 3, the details of the calculations become very cumbersome. However, our method suggests that the generating function for convex SAPs on ℤ ^d is always a quotient ofdifferentiably finite power series.
