Ionic liquid 1,3-disulfonic acid imidazolium trifluoroacetate ([Dsim][TFA]) has been exploited as a highly efficient catalyst for the one-pot pseudo five-component reaction of phenylhydrazine (2 eq.) with ethyl acetoacetate (2 eq.) and arylaldehydes (1 eq.) in ethanol (reflux conditions). In this reaction, 4,4′‐(arylmethylene)‐bis(3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐ pyrazol‐5‐ol)s have been obtained in high ...

Let A be a Banach algebra and X a Banach A-bimodule, the derivation D : A → X is semi-inner if there are ξ, μ ∈ X such that D(a) = a.ξ − μ.a, (a ∈ A). A is called semi-amenable if every derivation D : A → X∗ is semi-inner. The dual Banach algebra A is Connes semi-amenable (resp. approximately semi-amenable) if, every D ∈ Z1w _ (A,X), for each normal, dual Banach A-bimodule X, is semi -inner (re...

Recent developments in the area of smart structures indicate that variable geometry / stiffness truss network is of fundamental importance in designing smart transformable structures and systems for space applications. This paper presents the conceptual design and dynamic modeling of a cooperative re-configurabel dual-arm robotic structure called Dual-Arm Cam-Lock Manipulator. The Manipulator i...

Let M be a finite matroid with rank function r. We will write A M when we mean that A is a subset of the ground set of M, and write M|A and M A for the matroids obtained by restricting M to A and contracting M on A respectively. Let M* denote the dual matroid to M. (See [1] for definitions). The main theorem is Theorem 1. The Tutte polynomial TM(x, y) satisfies TM(x, y)= : A M TM|A(0, y) TM A(x...

Let w 1 = d, w 2 , ... , w s be the weights of the nonzero codewords in a binary linear [n , k, d] code C, and let w1′ , w2′ , ... , ws ′ ′ be the nonzero weights in the dual code C ⊥ . Let t be an integer in the range 0 < t < d such that there are at most d − t weights wi′ with 0 < wi′ ≤ n − t. Assmus and Mattson proved that the words of any weight w i in C form a t-design. We show that if w 2...

This paper proposes two simple and powerful algorithms to automatically paint Celtic knots with aesthetic colors. The shape of the knot is generated from its dual graph as presented in [KC03]. The first technique uses rules derived from two-colors harmony studies in a Color Order System to select harmonious color pairs. We show that it can efficiently reproduce color combinations utilized in an...

Euler diagrams are used in a wide variety of areas for representing information about relationships between collections of objects. Recently, several techniques for automated Euler diagram drawing have been proposed, contributing to the Euler diagram generation problem: given an abstract description, draw an Euler diagram with that description and which possesses certain properties, sometimes c...

We give a classification of four-circulant singly even self-dual [60, 30, d] codes for d = 10 and 12. These codes are used to construct extremal singly even self-dual [60, 30, 12] codes with weight enumerator for which no extremal singly even self-dual code was previously known to exist. From extremal singly even self-dual [60, 30, 12] codes, we also construct extremal singly even self-dual [58...

The theory of c-frames and c-Bessel mappings are the generalizationsof the theory of frames and Bessel sequences. In this paper, weobtain several equivalent conditions for dual of c-Bessel mappings.We show that for a c-Bessel mapping $f$, a retrievalformula with respect to a c-Bessel mapping $g$ is satisfied if andonly if $g$ is sum of the canonical dual of $f$ with a c-Besselmapping which  wea...

‎In this paper‎, ‎first we develop the duality concept for $g$-Bessel sequences‎ ‎and Bessel fusion sequences in Hilbert spaces‎. ‎We obtain some results about dual‎, ‎pseudo-dual ‎and approximate dual of frames and fusion frames‎. ‎We also expand every $g$-Bessel ‎sequence to a frame by summing some elements‎. ‎We define the restricted isometry property for ‎$g$-frames and generalize some resu...
