On the M‐essential spectra of two‐group transport equations

In this paper, we deal with the M‐essential spectra of unbounded linear operators in Banach spaces where some generalizations of earlier work are given. Furthermore, we give an application from transport theory. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Essential Spectra, Matrix Operator and Applications

This paper gives a survey on some recent results on the spectral theory of block operator matrices. We study the closeness in the product space and we give some conditions to characterize the essential spectra in the Browder resolvent set case. Furthermore, we apply the obtained results to several models such as delay equations, Sturm–Liouville problem and transport equations.     

Spectra of some block operator matrices and application to transport operators

In this paper a new concept for a 3×3 block operator matrix is studied on a Banach space. It is shown that, under certain conditions, it defines a closable operator and its essential spectra are determined. Application to transport operators in L₁-space is given.     

Synthesis,structure, spectroscopic investigations,and computational studies of optically pure β-ketoamide

Chemical preparation, X-ray single crystal diffraction, IR and NMR spectroscopic investigations of a novel nonlinear optical organic compound (C₁₇H₂₂NO₂Cl) are described. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with the non-centrosymmetric sp. gr. P2₁2₁2₁. In the crystal structure, molecules are interconnected by N–H…O hydrogen bonds forming infinite chains along a axis. The Hirshfeld surface and associated fingerprint plots of the compound are presented to explore the nature of intermolecular interactions and their relative contributions in building the solid-state architecture. The molecular HOMO–LUMO compositions and their respective energy gaps are also drawn to explain the activity of the compound. The first hyperpolarizability β_tot of the title compound is determined using DFT calculations. The optical properties are also investigated by UV–Vis absorption spectrum.     

On the essential spectra of coupled operators matrix and application

We define an abstract setting to treat essential spectra of unbounded coupled operator matrix. We prove a well‐posedness result and develop a spectral theory which also allows us to prove an amelioration to many earlier works. We point out that a concrete example from integro‐differential equation fit into this abstract framework involving a general class of regular operator in L₁ spaces.     

Synthesis and characterisation of luminescent fluorinated organoboron compounds

The reaction of 8-hydroxyquinoline (HQ) with B(C(6)F(5))(3) leads to the formation of the zwitterionic compound (C(6)F(5))(3)BQH (1), involving a proton migration from O to N. Compound 1 can be converted thermally to (C(6)F(5))(2)BQ (2), which can also be prepared from (C(6)F(5))(2)BCl and HQ. The reaction of HQ with (C(6)F(5))B(OC(6)F(5))(2) generates initially (C(6)F(5))(OC(6)F(5))BQ (3), which easily hydrolyses to give the diboron compound ((C(6)F(5))BQ)(2)O (4). Compounds 1, 2 and 4 have been fully characterised, including X-ray analysis. The spectroscopic properties of these compounds, including photoluminescence (PL) have been investigated and compared with the non-fluorinated luminescent boron compound (C(6)H(5))(2)BQ and also with AlQ(3). The changes in luminescent behaviour upon fluorination of these boron quinolinate compounds have been rationalised using computational studies.

Abstract  

Single crystals of iron and manganese phosphate Fe_6.36Mn_0.64(PO₃(OH))₄(PO₄)₂ was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The compound crystallizes in the Fe₇(PO₄)₆ structure type and is isotypic with the solid solution \textM_{7 - \textx} \textM_\textx^￠ ( \textHPO₄ )₄ ( \textPO₄ )₂ {\text{M}}_{{7 - {\text{x}}}} {\text{M}}_{\text{x}}^{\prime} \left( {{\text{HPO}}_{4} } \right)_{4} \left( {{\text{PO}}_{4} } \right)_{2} where M is Fe, Co, Mg, Mn. The compound is triclinic, P-1, a = 6.571(5), b = 7.993(3), c = 9.547(2) Ǻ, α = 103.97(1)°, β = 109.29(2)°, γ = 101.57(3)°. The structure is based on a three-dimensional framework of distorted edge-sharing MO₆ and MO₅ polyhedra, forming infinite chains, which are interlinked by corner-sharing with PO₄ tetrahedra. The formula unit is centrosymmetric, with all atoms in general positions except for one Fe atom, which has site symmetry −1.
