Mesoporous silica and titania supraparticles with controllable pore size, particle size, and macroscopic morphology were readily synthesized by a novel synthetic pathway using meniscus templating on a superhydrophobic surface, which is much simpler than well-known emulsion systems. Moreover, we first report that despite the very large radius of droplet curvature on a millimeter scale, suprapart...

As a continuation of the work on linear maps between operator algebras which preserve certain subsets of operators with finite rank, or finite corank, here we consider the problem inbetween, that is, we treat the question of preserving operators with infinite rank and infinite corank. Since, as it turns out, in this generality our preservers cannot be written in a nice form what we have got use...

abstract. let mn;m be the set of n-by-m matrices with entries inthe field of real numbers. a matrix r in mn = mn;n is a generalizedrow substochastic matrix (g-row substochastic, for short) if re e, where e = (1; 1; : : : ; 1)t. for x; y 2 mn;m, x is said to besgut-majorized by y (denoted by x sgut y ) if there exists ann-by-n upper triangular g-row substochastic matrix r such thatx = ry . th...

Preservers and additive spanners are sparse (hence cheap to store) subgraphs that preserve the distances between given pairs of nodes exactly or with some small additive error, respectively. Since real-world networks are prone to failures, it makes sense to study fault-tolerant versions of the above structures. This turns out to be a surprisingly difficult task. For every small but arbitrary se...

Here we investigate the kinetics of water-assisted CVD (henceforth denoted as supergrowth CVD) by a quantitative time-evolution analysis based on a simple growth model. We found that the supergrowth can be well described by a model where the dynamics of the catalyst activity is treated similar to radioactive decay. An in-depth analysis based on this growth model revealed the kinetics of the sup...

Mutagenesis is a process which forces the coverage of certain zones of the search space during the generations of an evolution strategy, by keeping track of the covered ranges for the different variables in the so called gene matrix. Originally introduced as an artifact to control the automated stopping criterion in a memetic algorithm, ESLAT, it also improved the exploration capabilities of th...

In this work by encapsulation technique we have synthetized three new clove bud essential oil (CEO) Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) formulations depending on the carrier (synthetic zeolite- F-CSZ, nature F-CNZ and gelatin- F-CG). The main idea was to develop an eco-friendly biopesticide that can find use in plant protection as alternative of conventional pesticides. By wanted enable water solubil...

Let C be a complex field, H_{m_1m_2} linear space of tensor products Hermite matrices H_{m_1}⊗H_{m_2} over , and suppose m_{1}, m_2≥2 are positive integers. A map f :H_{m_1m_2} → H_n is called inverse preserver if f( X_{1} ⊗X_{2} )^{-1}= X_{1}⊗X_{2}) ^{-1} ) for arbitrary invertible matrix ⊗ X_{2}∈ H_{m_{1}m_{2}} .The aim this...
