Functional inequality characterizing nonnegative concave functions in (0, ∞) k

Summary In the present note we prove that every functionf: (0, ) [0, ) satisfying the inequalityaf(s) + bf(t) f(as + bt), s, t > 0, for somea andb such that 0 <a < 1 <a + b must be of the formf(t) = f(1)t, (t > 0). This improves our recent result in [2], where the inequality is assumed to hold for alls, t 0, and gives a positive answer to the question raised there.An analogue for functions of several real variables of the above result characterizes concave functions. Conjugate functions and some relations to Hölder's and Minkowski's inequalities are mentioned.     

On the topology of compact smooth three-dimensional Levi-flat hypersurfaces

We study topological conditions that must be satisfied by a compactC ^∞ Levi-flat hypersurface in a two-dimensional complex manifold, as well as related questions about the holonomy of Levi-flat hypersurfaces. As a consequence of our work, we show that no two-dimensional complex manifold admits a subdomain Ω with compact nonemptyC ^∞ boundary such that Ω ? ?².

On bounds for the range of ordered variates II

Letx ₁, ,x _n be real numbers with ₁ ⁿ x _j =0, |x ₁ ||x ₂ ||x _n |, and ₁ ⁿ f(|x _i |)=A>0, wheref is a continuous, strictly increasing function on [0, ) withf(0)=0. Using a generalized Chebycheff inequality (or directly) it is easy to see that an upper bound for |x _m | isf ^–1 (A/(n–m+1)). If (n–m+1) is even, this bound is best possible, but not otherwise. Best upper bounds are obtained in case (n–m+1) is odd provided either (i)f is strictly convex on [0, ), or (ii)f is strictly concave on [0, ). Explicit best bounds are given as examples of (i) and (ii), namely the casesf(x)=x ^p forp>1 and 0<p<1 respectively.

On the character of local electric fields in amorphous semiconductors

On the basis of the agreement of calculated and measured parameters of some amorphous semiconductors, an argument is stated in favour of the central-symmetric type of random local electric fields. A possible mechanism of the transport of electrons is discussed.     

Pressure-Dependent Base-Wavefunction Admixture and Lifetime of R1 State of La3Lu2Ga3O12:Cr3+

As a key factor leading to the pressure-dependent R₁-line-shift reversal and R₁-state lifetime, at 10 K, the pressure-dependent variation of mixing-degree of |t₂²(³T₁)e⁴T₂〉 and |t₂³² E〉base-wavefunctions in the wavefunction of R₁ state of LLGG:Cr³⁺ has been calculated and analyzed. From this, the physical origin of the pressure-dependent R₁-line-shift reversal has been revealed. Furthermore, by using the pressure-dependent values of the sum of all square mixing-coefficients of |t₂²(³T₁)e⁴T₂〉in the wavefunction of R₁ state, the lifetimes of R₁ state of LLGG:Cr³⁺ at various pressures have been calculated, which are in good agreement with observed results. The quantum anticrossing effect between t₂³²E and t₂²(³T₁)e⁴T₂ levels due to both spin-orbital interaction and electron-phonon interaction is remarkable, which is related to the admixture of |t₂²(³T₁)e⁴T₂〉and |t₂³² E〉as well as the low-high crystal-field transition.     

Solvatochromic Solvent Polarity Measurements In Analytical Chemistry: Synthesiss And Applications Of Et-30

Abstract

The E_T(30) scale of solvent polarity has been shown to be useful in examining many diverse analytical processes. It is based on the charge transfer absorption of 2,6-diphenyl-4-(2,4,6-triphenyl-N-pyridinio)phenolate (referred to as ET-30 in this paper). Unfortunately, use of the E_T(30) scale has been hindered by (a) the lack of a commercial source of the ET-30 dye and (b) the lack of an English language synthetic procedure. Here we discuss recent applications of the E_T(30) scale to analytical techniques, as well as a simplified procedure for the synthesis of ET-30.     

Efficient Continuous Wave-laser emission of Pr3+-doped fluorides at room temperature

We report, to our knowledge for the first time, Continuous Wave (CW) laser emission at room temperature of Pr:LiYF₄ (Pr.YLF) at six wavelengths: 522, 545, 607, 639.5, 720 and 907.4 nm. The pump source was an argon-ion laser tuned to a wavelength of = 457.9 nm. The maximum output powers at 522 nm (³P_i ³H₅) and 639.5 nm (³P₀ ³F₂) were 144 and 266 mW, respectively. We also observed CW laser action of Pr:GdLiF₄ (Pr: GLF) at = 639 nm and of Pr:KYF₄ (Pr: KYF) at = 642.5 nm.
