String representation of SU(3) gluodynamics in the Abelian projection

A dual Ginzburg-Landau model corresponding to SU(3) gluodynamics in the Abelian projection is studied. A string theory describing QCD string dynamics is obtained in this model. The interaction of static quarks in mesons and baryons is investigated in an approximation to leading order. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 68, No. 2, 109–114 (25 July 1998)     

Reaction of Methylmalonyl Dichloride with Unsaturated Carboxamides

Methylmalonyl dichloride reacts with (2E)-3-phenylacrylamides and (2E)-3-(2-furyl)acrylamide to give the corresponding E-isomeric 2-substituted 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones. The reaction of methylmalonyl dichloride with acrylamide afforded N-(3-chloropropionyl)-2-methylmalonamic acid. The structure of the products was confirmed by the ¹H and ¹³C NMR, IR, and UV spectra.     

Bundles, Handcuffs, and Local Freedom

We answer a question of J. Anderson's by producing infinitely many commensurability classes of fibered hyperbolic 3-manifolds whose fundamental groups contain subgroups that are locally free and not free. These manifolds are obtained by performing 0–surgery on a collection of knots with the same properties.     

On the solvability of physically nonlinear problems of Thermoelasticity

We study the problem of existence and uniqueness of generalized solutions of nonlinear vector boundary-value problems arising in the physically nonlinear theory of thermoelasticity. We prove the convergence of iteration processes in the space W ¹ ₂.     

Reactions of 4-Hydroxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-2-styryl-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones with Nucleophiles

4-Hydroxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-2-styryl-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones react with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine to give the corresponding 3,5-substituted triazoles. Treatment of the title compounds with ethanol and methanol leads to formation of N-cinnamoylmalonamates. The structure of the products was confirmed by the IR and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra.     

Structural and Kinetic Features of Formation of High-Strength Epoxy-Amine Cross-Linked Polymers by Combined Polycondensation-Polymerization Process

To control the structural contributions of the polycondensation and polymerization curing of epoxy resins, the curing kinetics of the composites diepoxide-tertiary amine and diepoxide-(primary + tertiary) amines is studied by the isothermal calorimetry.     

Investigation of the distribution of the negative charge in anionic cyanine dyes by means of lanthanide shift reagents

It was established by PMR with lanthanide shift reagents that the charge in anionic cyanine dyes with a linear chromophore is concentrated at the ends of the polymethine chain, while in compounds containing a vinylene group in the chromophore it is concentrated in the region of the five-membered ring. The results are compared with the data from¹³C NMR spectroscopy and relaxation measurements in the presence of Gd(fod)₃. The validity of the conclusions is also considered.Kiev University.

三氟化硼引发四氢呋喃聚合的研究——Ⅳ.1,4-丁二醇的影响

前报中已证明用三氟化硼-环氧氯丙烷(ECH)引发四氢呋喃(THF)聚合具有较高的引发效率,并对在Ac_2O、水和无水存在下的聚合反应进行了研究。本文报道1,4-丁二醇(BG)对BF_3引发THF聚合反应的影响。通常认为在BG存在下,BF_3是不能引发THF聚合的,但本工作证明BG是有效的分子量调节剂,制备分子量在
