The oilfield water in the Upper Sandstone Member of the Zubair reservoir (Barriemian-Hauterivian) at Rumaila North Oil Field was investigated for the interpretation of salinity and geochemical evolution of brine compositions. The interaction of the oilfield water with reservoir rock resulted in a brine water derived from the marine water origin of partial mixing with meteoric water similar to t...

The link of a vertex v in a graph G is the subgraph induced by all vertices adjacent to v. If all the links in G are isomorphic to the same graph L, then L is called the link graph of G. We consider the operation of an amalgamation of graphs. Using the construction of the free product of groups with amalgamated subgroups, we give a sufficient condition for a class of link graphs of Cayley graph...

J.P. Levine showed that the Conway polynomial of a link is a product of two factors: one is the Conway polynomial of a knot which is obtained from the link by banding together the components; and the other is determined by the μ̄-invariants of a string link with the link as its closure. We give another description of the latter factor: the determinant of a matrix whose entries are linking pairin...
