Pseudo-Strong Regularity Around a Set

A generalization of strong regularity around a vertex subset C of a graph Γ, which makes sense even if Γis non-regular, is studied. Such a structure appears, together with a kind of distance-regularity around C , when an spectral bound concerning the so-called predistance polynomial of C is attained. As a main consequence of these results, it is shown that a regular (connected) graph Γwith d + 1 distinct eigenvalues is distance-regular, and its distance- d graph Γ d is strongly regular with parameters a = c , if and only if the number of vertices at distance d from each vertex satisfies an expression which depends only on the order of Γand the different eigenvalues of Γ.     

Characterization of supercommuting matrices

For a given n-by-n matrix A, we consider the set of matrices which commute with A and all of whose principal submatrices commute with the corresponding principal submatrices of A. The properties of this set are examined, with particular attention to its dimension.     

The traveling salesman problem in graphs with some excluded minors

Given a graph and a length function defined on its edge-set, the Traveling Salesman Problem can be described as the problem of finding a family of edges (an edge may be chosen several times) which forms a spanning Eulerian subgraph of minimum length. In this paper we characterize those graphs for which the convex hull of all solutions is given by the nonnegativity constraints and the classical cut constraints. This characterization is given in terms of excluded minors. A constructive characterization is also given which uses a small number of basic graphs.     

适用于真空管道交通的高温超导磁悬浮车低温液氮容器

真空管道运输系统的建成以及在全球的普及与应用,将是继火车、汽车、飞机和IT之后人类的又一大福祉。将使今天面临的交通困境从根本上得以解决,也将给全球经济与社会生活方式带来全新的变化。磁悬浮车是真空管道交通系统的运行主体,在各种不同模式的磁悬浮车中,高温超导磁悬浮车非常适合于真空管道交通。然而,由于真空管道中是低压环境,用于常压环境的高温超导磁悬浮车低温液氮容器不适合直接用于真空管道交通系统。提出在真空管道交通中,采用带压力阀的高温超导磁悬浮车低温液氮容器。这是一种压力容器,器壁要承受压差,当前常用的矩形高温超导磁悬浮车低温液氮容器则不适合,进一步提出能承受较高压力的圆柱形低温液氮容器的设计构想。还对真空管道交通中真空环境对提高液氮容器保温效果的意义进行了讨论。

Direct Intermediate Regulation Enabled by Sulfur Containers in Working Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Polysulfide intermediates (PSs), the liquid-phase species of active materials in lithium–sulfur (Li-S) batteries, connect the electrochemical reactions between insulative solid sulfur and lithium sulfide and are key to full exertion of the high-energy-density Li-S system. Herein, the concept of sulfur container additives is proposed for the direct modification on the PSs species. By reversible storage and release of the sulfur species, the container molecule converts small PSs into large organosulfur species. The prototype di(tri)sulfide-polyethylene glycol sulfur container is highly efficient in the reversible PS transformation to multiply affect electrochemical behaviors of sulfur cathodes in terms of liquid-species clustering, reaction kinetics, and solid deposition. The stability and capacity of Li-S cells was thereby enhanced. The sulfur container is a strategy to directly modify PSs, enlightening the precise regulation on Li-S batteries and multi-phase electrochemical systems.

Topological studies on heteroconjugated molecules

A graph-theoretical analysis of certain -electron properties of alternant molecules with one heteroatom is given. Topological formulas for total -electron energy, -electron charge density, bond order and various polarizabilities are derived. The main results of the paper are summarized in Rules 1-7.     

Chemical applications of topology and group theory

The 60 even permutations of the ligands in the five-coordinate complexes, ML ₅, form the alternating group A ₅, which is isomorphic with the icosahedral pure rotation group I. Using this idea, it is shown how a regular icosahedron can be used as a topological representation for isomerizations of the five-coordinate complexes, ML ₅, involving only even permutations if the five ligands L correspond either to the five nested octahedra with vertices located at the midpoints of the 30 edges of the icosahedron or to the five regular tetrahedra with vertices located at the midpoints of the 20 faces of the icosahedron. However, the 120 total permutations of the ligands in five-coordinate complexes ML ₅ cannot be analogously represented by operations in the full icosahedral point group I _h, since I _his the direct product I×C₂ whereas the symmetric group S ₅ is only the semi-direct product A ₅S₂. In connection with previously used topological representations on isomerism in five-coordinate complexes, it is noted that the automorphism groups of the Petersen graph and the Desargues-Levi graph are isomorphic to the symmetric group S ₅ and to the direct product S ₅×S ₂, respectively. Applications to various fields of chemistry are briefly outlined.
