Conjecture 32.1 is easily seen to be true for a torus (i.e., G G r m for some r 0), but even the simplest non-trivial case (that of G SL2 ) remains inaccessible. Guido and I published 5 papers together, all in some sense connected with this conjecture. We used the integral form GZ of a complex reductive algebraic group (which is a group scheme over Spec Z ) in order to form the group G(F) of po...

a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of quinolines and polycyclic quinolines using li+ modified nanoporous na+-montmorillonite is described. this new nanocatalyst proceeds via friedlander annulation under solvent-free conditions. it describes our observations about a trend of catalytic activity of lithium cation in nanoporous na+-montmorillonite. in this study, several types of 1,3-d...

The Friedlander{Milnor Conjecture 1] asserts that if G is a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed eld k, then the comparison map H et (BG k ; Z=p) ?! H (BG; Z=p) is an isomorphism for all primes p not equal to the characteristic of k. Gabber's rigidity theorem 2] implies that this map is indeed an isomorphism for the stable general linear group GL (this is due to Suslin 6] for ...

In a recent preprint, [CGJ], we showed that for the Dirichlet Laplacian ∆ on the unit disk, the wave trace Tr(eit √ ∆), which has complicated singularities on 2π − ε < t < 2π, is, on the interval 2π < t < 2π+ ε, the restriction to this interval of a C∞ function on its closure. In this paper we prove the analogue of this somewhat counter-intuitive result for the Friedlander model. The proof for ...

Previous blast injury prediction criteria have been based on exposure to classic Friedlander or ideal blast waves. An ideal waveform is characterized by an instantaneous rise to a peak overpressure that decays exponentially to ambient pressure followed by a negative phase. The prediction criteria did not address injuries resulting from exposure to complex blast waves. It was difficult to establ...

developed their genocidal methods, inventing and refining the techniques of transportation, selection and gassing, and the schemes of subterfuge used to hide these atrocities from relatives and potential pockets of opposition. To demonstrate the "intimate connections" between these two programmes, Friedlander chronicles the various stages in the Nazi campaigns against their most helpless victim...
