Lattice and continuum wavelets and the block renormalization group

We obtain a resolution of the identity operator, for functions on a latticeZ ^d, which is derived from the block renormalization group. We use eigenfunctions of the terms of the decomposition to form a basis forl ₂(Z^d) and show how the basis is generated from lattice wavelets. The lattice spacing is taken to zero and continuum wavelets are obtained.     

Isolated square planar metal complexes of carbon

Based on the group theory analysis and quantum chemical calculations within the framework of SW X _α method (in relativistic approximation for core electrons and non-relativistic for valence ones), the existence possibility of square planar complexes [M₄C] and [M₄C]^2? (M = Al, Ga, In, Tl, Sc, and Y) in gas phase has been shown. The extraction of Kt₂[M₄C] square planar complexes of carbon in the crystal state is possible too. A high stability of these complexes, in comparison with usual tetrahedral, is achieved due to the formation of five-and four-center bonds (bonds M-M and M-C).     

Description of the turbidity measurements near the phase transition temperature of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) copolymers: the effect of pH, concentration, hydrophilic and hydrophobic content on the turbidity

Absorbance values between 300 and 800 nm of aqueous solutions of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide-co-itaconic acid-9.80), poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide-co-itaconic acid-52.05) and poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)s containing Tegomer H-Si 2111 end groups and/or blocks were measured using a Shimadzu 160-A UV-visible spectrometer. Turbidities obtained from these absorbance values were used to interpret the macromolecular phase transition from a hydrophilic to a hydrophobic structure of the polymers. The effects of comonomer type and content, concentration of the solutions, pH and temperature on the coil-globule transition were discussed in terms of turbidity form factor, β related to size and shapes of particles and calculated by using the simplified form of Debye equation.The results presented in this work show that the presence of Tegomer H-Si 2111 (Si containing end groups and/or blocks) or high amount of itaconic acid (IA) in the chains prevent a collapse transition from hydrated extended coils to hydrophobic globules, which aggregate and form a separate phase (β<2). Furthermore, it was observed that in the case of concentrated solutions intermolecular hydrophobic interactions between isopropyl groups overcame the repulsive forces resulting from the ionized carboxylic acid groups of IA or surface active nature of Si containing hydrophobic groups (β>2). This stage of the transition corresponds to macroscopic phase separation after an intramolecular process.     

Base-labile tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group on phenols

Phenols are deprotected with weak bases from their tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) derivatives. Boc deprotection with bases can avoid side reactions during the deprotection with acids. We note the lability of the Boc to bases and are able to utilize it as a new cleavage condition for synthetic studies.     

Scaling properties of ℤ k- 1 actions on the circle

We derive universal scaling properties for ^k–1 actions on the circle whose generators have rotation numbers algebraic of degreek. As fork=2 these properties can be explained for arbitraryk in terms of a renormalization group transformation. It has at least one trivial fixed point corresponding to an action whose generators are pure rotations. The spectrum of the linearized transformation in this fixed point is analyzed completely. The fixed point is hyperbolic with a (k–1)-dimensional unstable manifold. In the casek=2 the known results are therefore recovered.     

将A-L理论推广到无限维李代数

为使由Alhassid与Levine所提出的动力学李代数方法（简称A－L理论）能适用于更多的散射体系，在h(∞)中引入了有效集合C（有限维）的概念．按照微扰理论的意义，C中的代数元所对应的群参量是较低次微扰的结果，而不属于C的代数元所对应的群参量则相当于较高次做扰所产生的修正结果．因此可以近似地利用C来代替h(∞)．这样，不仅简化了计算程序并且对于很多具有现实意义的散射过程的计算成为可能．

Thermodynamics of the decomposition processes of donor-acceptor complexes MX3 x en x MX3 and MX3 x en.

The structural and thermodynamic properties of the donor-acceptor (DA) complexes of Group 13 metal halides (MX3) with ethylenediamine and their decomposition products have been studied theoretically at the B3LYP/LANL2DZ(d,p) level of theory. Gas-phase dissociation into various components and HX elimination reactions are considered. Both processes are endothermic but favored by entropy. Complexes of 2:1 composition are predicted to be stable in the gas phase up to 640-1000 K. It is found that complexation with the second acceptor molecule lowers the HX elimination enthalpy; in turn, HX elimination increases DA bonding with a second MX3 molecule. Exceptionally high values of the dissociation enthalpies (310-390 kJ mol(-1)) and HX elimination reactions (360-420 kJ mol(-1)) of the amido compounds MX2NHC2H4NH2 and MX2NHC2H4NHMX2 make them important intermediates in the decomposition processes. Dissociation reactions of the complexes are more favorable than HX elimination reactions; however, the subsequent oligomerization and cyclization processes of coordinationally unsaturated amido and imido compounds may facilitate HX elimination. Since HI elimination reactions are predicted to be the least endothermic, and aluminum-containing compounds have the strongest M-N dissociation enthalpies, it is expected that compounds based on aluminum iodide are promising objects for experimental studies.
