The representation dimension of domestic weakly symmetric algebras

Auslander’s representation dimension measures how far a finite dimensional algebra is away from being of finite representation type. In [1], M. Auslander proved that a finite dimensional algebra A is of finite representation type if and only if the representation dimension of A is at most 2. Recently, R. Rouquier proved that there are finite dimensional algebras of an arbitrarily large finite representation dimension. One of the exciting open problems is to show that all finite dimensional algebras of tame representation type have representation dimension at most 3. We prove that this is true for all domestic weakly symmetric algebras over algebraically closed fields having simply connected Galois coverings.     

On characterization of Poisson and Jacobi structures

We characterize Poisson and Jacobi structures by means of complete lifts of the corresponding tensors: the lifts have to be related to canonical structures by morphisms of corresponding vector bundles. Similar results hold for generalized Poisson and Jacobi structures (canonical structures) associated with Lie algebroids and Jacobi algebroids.     

Some Characterizations of Ergodic Probability Measures

Let P be a Markov kernel defined on a measurable space (X, ??). A P-ergodic probability is an extreme point of the family of all P-invariant probability measures on ??. Several characterizations of P-ergodic probabilities are given. In particular, for the special case of a topological space X both P-ergodic Baire probabilities and P-ergodic Borel probabilities with additional regularity properties are characterized.     

Configurational and conformational preferences in stereoselective acylations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-methyl-1,3-diaminopropane with acyl chlorides

Evidence for a stereoinduction profile of the reaction of N-methyl-1,3-diaminopropane with acyl chlorides has been provided. A possibility to engage in intramolecular CH₂⋯HN and Cl⋯H-N interactions and the proton migration process to the methylamino group leads to the E secondary amides carrying the N⋯H⁺⋯N or N-H⋯N bridges, that show unusual spectroscopic images. Empirical relations between the Δδ _C chemical shift differences, the polarizability of the CO(S) groups and hydrogen bonding strength have been found. Both ¹H-¹⁵N-GHSQC and GHMBC experiments provide insight into the nature of hydrogen bonding and confirm the cyclic array of atoms.     

Strongly countable dimensional compacta form the Hurewicz set

The hyperspaces of strongly countable dimensional compacta of positive dimension and of strongly countable dimensional continua of dimension greater than 1 in the Hilbert cube are homeomorphic to the Hurewicz set of all nonempty countable closed subsets of the unit interval [0,1]. These facts hold true, in particular, for covering dimension dim and cohomological dimension dimG, where G is any Abelian group.     

Structure of 18-cyanoprogesterone,C22H29O2N

The crystal structure of 18-cyanoprogesterone was determined by X-ray diffraction methods:P2₁2₁2₁ a=7.436(2),b=11.322(2),c=22.642(2) Å. The structure was solved usingShelx-86. Final conventionalR=0.054.R _w =0.051 for 1841 reflections. TheA ring has an intermediate sofa-half-chair conformation with asymmetry parameters C _s ^/1 =11.0, C ₂ ^3,4 =14.9. The steroid skeleton exhibits a flattening of theA ring relative to the rest of the molecule. The progesterone side chain has a typical conformation, and the C16-C17-C20-O20 torsion angle is –19.0(6)°.     

The group of local biholomorphisms of ℂ1 and conformal field theory in the operator formalism

Motivated by the operator formulation of conformal field theory on Riemann surfaces, we study the properties of the infinite dimensional group of local biholomorphic transformations (conformal reparametrizations) of ¹ and develop elements of its representation theory.     

On measures integrating all functions of a given vector lattice

LetE be a vector lattice of real-valued functions defined on a setX, and (E):={{f1}:fE}. Among others, it is shown that, under some additional assumptions onE, every measure that integrates all functionsfE is (E)--smooth iffX is (E)-complete. An application of this general result to various topological situations yields some new measure-theoretic characterizations of realcompact, Borel-complete andN-compact spaces, respectively.
