Realization of fixed point sets

Letf:XX be a selfmap of a compact connected polyhedron, andA a nonempty closed subset ofX. In this paper, we shall deal with the question whether or not there is a mapg:XX homotopic tof such that the fixed point set Fixg ofg equalsA. We introduce a necessary condition for the existence of such a mapg. It is shown that this condition is easy to check, and hence some sufficient conditions are obtained.Partially supported by the Natural Science Foundation of Liaoning University.     

Multi-element Saha–Boltzmann and Boltzmann plots in laser-induced plasmas

A multi-element Saha–Boltzmann plot method is proposed for the determination of the temperature and the relative number density in laser-induced plasmas, assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium and stoichiometry conservation. The method has been applied to the characterization of a plasma generated with a Cu–Fe–Ni–Mn alloy, using a Nd:YAG laser in air at atmospheric pressure. Spectra of the local emissivity have been obtained by spatial deconvolution of the intensity spectra, obtained with spatial resolution. Saha–Boltzmann plots obtained from the emissivities of 58 spectral lines of Fe I, Fe II, Ni I, Ni II, Mn I and Mn II have been fitted to linear behavior with high correlation, which shows the validity of the equation proposed. Radial distributions of the temperature and number densities of neutral atoms and ions have been determined. The results obtained reinforce the initial considerations of local thermodynamic equilibrium and conservation of stoichiometry. The proposed equation can also be applied to only one ionization species (multi-element Boltzmann plot). Spatially-integrated measurements of the plasma emission have also been performed to show that, in this case, the application of the method to the line intensities provides the two different apparent temperatures for neutral atoms and ions.     

Electron correlation effects on the shape of the Kohn–Sham molecular orbital

Even systems in which strong electron correlation effects are present, such as the large near-degeneracy correlation in a dissociating electron pair bond exemplified by stretched H₂, are represented in the Kohn–Sham (KS) model of non-interacting electrons by a determinantal wavefunction built from the KS molecular orbitals. As a contribution to the discussion on the status and meaning of the KS orbitals we investigate, for the prototype system of H₂ at large bond distance, and also for a one-dimensional molecular model, how the electron correlation effects show up in the shape of the KS σ _g orbital. KS orbitals φ^HL and φ^FCI obtained from the correlated Heitler-London and full configuration interaction wavefunctions are compared to the orbital φ^LCAO, the traditional linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) form of the (approximate) Hartree-Fock orbital. Electron correlation manifests itself in an essentially non-LCAO structure of the KS orbitals φ^HL and φ^FCI around the bond midpoint, which shows up particularly clearly in the Laplacian of the KS orbital. There are corresponding features in the kinetic energy density t _s of the KS system (a well around the bond midpoint) and in the one-electron KS potential v _s (a peak). The KS features are lacking in the Hartree-Fock orbital, in a minimal LCAO approximation as well as in the exact one. Received: 11 December 1996 / Accepted: 10 January 1997     

EPR parameters and local geometry for Cr3+ and V2+ ions in HfS2 crystals

From the high-order perturbation formulas of EPR parameters (zero-field splitting D, g factors gparallel, gperpendicular and hyperfine structure constants Aparallel, Aperpendicular) based on the two spin-orbit coupling parameter model for 3d3 ions in trigonal symmetry, the EPR parameters of Cr3+ and V2+ ions in HfS2 crystals are calculated. From the calculations, it is found that the local trigonal distortion angle theta of impurity center in HfS2:Cr3+ is smaller than that in HfS2:V2+. The dominant cause of the small zero-field splitting |D| and g-anisotropy |Deltag|=|gparallel-gperpendicular| in HfS2:Cr3+ (compound to HfS2:V2+) is due to the small local trigonal distortion angle theta rather than to the small impurity-ligand distance R in HfS2:Cr3+.     

On the use of local basis sets for localized molecular orbitals

Two procedures are discussed for the direct variational optimization of localized molecular orbitals which are expanded in local subsets of the molecular basis set. It is shown that a Newton-Raphson approach is more efficient than an iterative diagonalization scheme. The effect of the basis-set truncation on the quality ofab-initio SCF results is investigated for Be, Li₂, HF, H₂O, NH₃, CH₄ and C₂H₆.     

非晶态Co-B的局域电子结构的Xα原子簇计算

In the research on metallic glass, there are arguments against the "rigid band charge transfer", model which assumes a charge transfer from metalloid atoms to transition metal atoms to explain the experimental evidence of linear reduction of average atomic magnetic moment with the increasing concentration of metalloid atoms, but they could not explain the experimental relation of the reduction. In the present work, spin-polarized SCC-DV-X_a calculation for atomic clusters for metallic glass Co-B has been empoloyed to investigate the local electronic structure and magnetic property of the metallic glass. As opposed to the "rigid band charge transfer" model, calculation in the present work indicates that charge transfers from Co4s to both B and Co3d. It is found that there is Co3d4s-B2p hybird bonding in Co-B, which leads to the linear reduction of average atomic magnetic moment. Thus the explanation removes the above controversy.
