Immobilization of RuS2 Nanoparticles Prepared in Reverse Micellar System onto Thiol-Modified Polystyrene Particles and their Photocatalytic Properties

RuS₂ nanoparticles, smaller than 3 nm in diameter, were prepared by H₂S gas injection into the AOT/isooctane reverse micellar solution containing RuCl₃ aqueous solution. The nanoparticle size was found to be independent of the W_o (water content) value of the reverse micellar system, as shown by TEM observation. The recovery and immobilization of the RuS₂ nanoparticles from reverse micelles onto thiol-modified polystyrene particles (PSt-SH) were successfully carried out, by the addition of PSt-SH into the reverse micellar solution under conditions of mild stirring. The resulting composites, PSt-RuS₂, showed photocatalytic activity for H₂ generation form aqueous solution containing 2-propanol and Na₂SO₃ as sacrificial electron donors.

Geometric approach to Fletcher's ideal penalty function

In this note, we derive a geometric formulation of an ideal penalty function for equality constrained problems. This differentiable penalty function requires no parameter estimation or adjustment, has numerical conditioning similar to that of the target function from which it is constructed, and also has the desirable property that the strict second-order constrained minima of the target function are precisely those strict second-order unconstrained minima of the penalty function which satisfy the constraints. Such a penalty function can be used to establish termination properties for algorithms which avoid ill-conditioned steps. Numerical values for the penalty function and its derivatives can be calculated efficiently using automatic differentiation techniques.     

像散厄米-高斯光束的对称化和相关问题的研究

 从比较两种对称化光学系统出发，使用三柱透镜对称化光学系统对像散厄米高斯光束作了详细分析，研究表明：对称化光学系统的作用是将像散光束变换为对称化实宗量光束；并消去xy耦合项。这样，当光束继续在自由空间传输时，能保持其形状不变。然而，有xy耦合项的对称化复光束却不具有这种传输不变性。     

The efficient solution of electromagnetic scattering for inhomogeneous media

We consider an electromagnetic scattering problem for inhomogeneous media. In particular, we focus on the numerical computation of the electromagnetic scattered wave generated by the interaction of an electromagnetic plane wave and an inhomogeneity in the corresponding propagation medium. This problem is studied in the VV polarization case, where some special symmetry requirements for the incident wave and for the inhomogeneity are assumed. This problem is reformulated as a Fredholm integral equation of second kind, which is discretized by a linear system having a special form. This allows to compute efficiently an approximate solution of the scattering problem by using iterative techniques for linear systems. Some numerical examples are reported.

Front-Form Hamiltonian, Path Integral, and BRST Formulations of the Nonlinear Sigma Model

The nonlinear sigma model in one-space one-time dimension is considered on the light-front. The front-form theory is seen to possess a set of three first-class constraints and consequently it possesses a local vector gauge symmetry. This is in contrast to the usual instant-form theory, which is well known to be a gauge noninvariant theory possessing a set of four second-class constraints. The front-form Hamiltonian, path integral, and BRST formulations of this theory are investigated under some specific gauge choices.     

Error bounds for analytic systems and their applications

Using a 1958 result of Lojasiewicz, we establish an error bound for analytic systems consisting of equalities and inequalities defined by real analytic functions. In particular, we show that over any bounded region, the distance from any vectorx in the region to the solution set of an analytic system is bounded by a residual function, raised to a certain power, evaluated atx. For quadratic systems satisfying certain nonnegativity assumptions, we show that this exponent is equal to 1/2. We apply the error bounds to the Karush—Kuhn—Tucker system of a variational inequality, the affine variational inequality, the linear and nonlinear complementarity problem, and the 0–1 integer feasibility problem, and obtain new error bound results for these problems. The latter results extend previous work for polynomial systems and explain why a certain square-root term is needed in an error bound for the (monotone) linear complementarity problem.The research of this author is based on work supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada under grant OPG0090391.The research of this author is based on work supported by the National Science Foundation under grants DDM-9104078 and CCR-9213739 and by the Office of Naval Research under grant 4116687-01.
