The pseudo-first order rate constants and activation parameters have been determined using two methods, constant-temperature kinetic (CTK) and variable temperature kinetic (VTK), for the oxidative addition reactions of [Pt2Me2(C^N)2(µ-dppf)], (1a, C^N = deprotonated 2-phenylpyridine (ppy); 1b, C^N = deprotonated benzo[h]quinoline (bhq)) with MeI. The results obtained from VTK method are in agre...

commutative properties of four-dimensional generalized symmetric pseudo-riemannian manifolds were considered. specially, in this paper, we studied skew-tsankov and jacobi-tsankov conditions in 4-dimensional pseudo-riemannian generalized symmetric manifolds.

Pseudo-BCK algebras were introduced by G. Georgescu and A. Iorgulescu as a generalization of BCK algebras in order to give a corresponding structure to pseudo-MV algebras, since the bounded commutative BCK algebras corresponde to MV algebras. Properties of pseudo-BCK algebras and their connections with other fuzzy structures were established by A. Iorgulescu and J. Kühr. The aim of this paper i...

Pseudo-hoops are algebraic structures introduced in [1, 2] by B. Bosbach under the name of complementary semigroups. This is a formalization of the paper [4]. Following [4] we prove some properties of pseudo-hoops and we define the basic concepts of filter and normal filter. The lattice of normal filters is isomorphic with the lattice of congruences of a pseudo-hoop. We also study some importan...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of interval pseudo-homegeneous uninorms. We extend the concept of pseudo-homogeneity of specific functions for interval pseudo-homogeneous functions. It is studied two cases of interval pseudo-homogeneous uninorms, that is, interval pseudo-homogeneous tnorms and interval pseudo-homogeneous t-conorms. It is proved a form of interval pseudo-homogeneous t-no...

Based on the theory of a falling shadow which was first formulated by Wang [15], a theoretical approach of the pseudo ideal structure in pseudo d-algebras is established. Several properties are investigated, and relations among a falling pseudo d-subalgebra, a falling pseudo BCK-ideal and a falling pseudo d-ideal are discussed. A characterization of a falling pseudo d-ideal is provided. Conditi...

Using 1,4-diaminobenzene and 2-formylpyridine as simple building blocks results in a 1D ligand (rod, L2) to 2D (M4L4 grid, C1) to 3D (S4 symmetrical M4L6, C2) complexes upon sequential addition of Cu(I) and Fe(II) ions. The complex C2 can be seen as the smallest possible pseudo-tetrahedron with S4 symmetry.

We survey the connection between two results from rather different areas: failure of the 3-space property for local convexity (and other properties) within the category of quasiBanach spaces, and the irreducibility (in the sense of Minkowski difference) of large families of finite dimensional polytopes. Mathematics subject classification (2010): 46A16, 46B03, 52B15..

A global visibility map is a spherical image built to describe the complete set of global visible view directions for a surface. In this paper, we consider the computation of global visibility maps for regions on the boundary of a polyhedron. Both the self-occlusions introduced by a region and the global occlusions introduced by the rest of the surfaces on the boundary of the polyhedron are con...

In a partially ordered semigroup with the duality (or polarity) transform, it is possible to define a generalisation of continued fractions. General sufficient conditions for convergence of continued fractions are provided. Two particular applications concern the cases of convex sets with the Minkowski addition and the polarity transform and the family of non-negative convex functions with the ...
