We define the monomial invariants of a projective variety Z; they are invariants coming from the generic initial ideal of Z. Using this notion, we generalize a result of Cook [C]: If Z is an integral variety of codimension two, satisfying the additional hypothesis sZ = sΓ, then its monomial invariants are connected.

A NUMERICAL RENORMALIZATION GROUP APPROACH FOR AN ELECTRON-PHONON INTERACTION

A finite chain calculation in terms of Hubbard X-operators is explored by setting up a vibronic Harniltonian. The model conveniently transformed into a form so that in the case of strong coupling a numerical renormalization group approach is applicable. To test the technique, a one particle Green function is calculated for the model Harniltonian

Methyl (2′S,3′S)-3,4-O-(2′,3′-dimethoxy­butane-2′,3′-di­yl)-α-l-rhamnopyran­oside: a glycosyl acceptor

The title compound, C(13)H(24)O(7), is the product of the ketalization of methyl l-(+)-rhamnopyran-oside with 2,3-butane-dione. It crystallizes with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, which are connected by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The C-3,4 diequatorial hydroxy groups of the methyl l-(+)-rhamnopyran-oside were protected, leaving the C-2 hydroxy group free. The l-(+)-rhamnopyran-oside and 2',3...

Magnetic-field-induced low-energy spin excitations in YBa(2)Cu(4)O(8) measured by high field Gd(3+) electron spin resonance.

We have measured the spin susceptibility, chi(s), of the CuO(2) planes in the underdoped high T(c) superconductor, YBa(2)Cu(4)O(8) by Gd(3+) electron spin resonance (ESR) in single crystals and aligned powders in fields up to 15.4 T. At low temperatures and high fields, chi(s) is enhanced slightly in the B parallel c orientation with respect to the B perpendicular c orientation. The enhancement...
