The inventory of 15 German full vowels realized by speakers of Northern Standard German (NSG) and Austrian Standard German (ASG) is investigated acoustically. The vowels were produced in phonotactically regular nonsense words (bVp and dVt environments) embedded in a sentence frame. The analyses revealed that the main difference between both varieties can be found in a different acoustic realiza...

We combine two research directions of the past decade, namely the development of a lax-algebraic framework for categories of interest to topologists and analysts, and the exploration of key topological concepts, like separation and compactness, in an abstract category which comes equipped with an axiomatic notion “closed” or “proper” map. Hence, we present various candidates for such notions in...

We present a method for numerical wave propagation in a heterogeneous medium. The medium is defined in terms of an extended scatterer or target which is surrounded by many small scatterers. By extending the classic Foldy-Lax formulation we developed an efficient algorithm for numerical wave propagation in two dimension. In the method that we set forth multiple scattering among the point scatter...

We study the C2 Ruijsenaars-Schneider(RS) models with interaction potentials of rational and trigonometric types. The Lax pairs for these models are constructed and the involutive Hamiltonians are also given. Taking nonrelativistic limit, we obtain the Lax pair of C2 Calogero-Moser model. PACS: 02.20.+b, 11.10.Lm, 03.80.+r

We generalize the work by Sobociński on relational presheaves and their connection with weak (bi)simulation for labelled transistion systems to a coalgebraic setting. We show that the coalgebraic notion of saturation studied in our previous work can be expressed in the language of lax functors in terms of existence of a certain adjunction between categories of lax functors. This observation all...

The Lax pair of the Ruijsenaars-Schneider model with interaction potential of trigonometric type based on Dn Lie algebra is presented. We give a general form for the Lax pair and prove partial results for small n. Liouville integrability of the corresponding system follows a series of involutive Hamiltonians generated by the characteristic polynomial of the Lax matrix. The rational case appears...

We study the conformal properties of the multi-constraint KP hierarchy and its nonstandard partner by covariantizing their corresponding Lax operators. The associated second Hamiltonian structures turn out to be nonlocal extension of Wn algebra by some integer or half-integer spin fields depending on the order of the Lax operators. In particular, we show that the complicated second Hamiltonian ...
