The orthogonality relations of multivariate Krawtchouk polynomials are discussed. In case of two variables, the necessary and sufficient conditions of orthogonality is given by Grünbaum and Rahman in [SIGMA 6 (2010), 090, 12 pages]. In this study, a simple proof of the necessary and sufficient condition of orthogonality is given for a general case.

This paper revisits models of typed λ-calculus based on filters of intersection types: By using non-idempotent intersections, we simplify a methodology that produces modular proofs of strong normalisation based on filter models. Non-idempotent intersections provide a decreasing measure proving a key termination property, simpler than the reducibility techniques used with idempotent intersection...

We study linear-response time-dependent density-functional theory (DFT) based on the singledeterminant range-separated hybrid (RSH) scheme, i.e. combining a long-range Hartree-Fock exchange kernel with a short-range DFT exchange-correlation kernel, for calculating electronic excitation energies of molecular systems. It is an alternative to the more common long-range correction (LC) scheme which...

The selective control of a chemical process by the use of an electromagnetic wave has been a challenging goal for several decades. In this article, we describe for the first time the use of a monochromatic light beam to differentiate two different reactive centers. A direct application of this concept is found in the chemistry of protecting groups. Two different photolabile protecting groups we...

Orthogonality of polynomials in several variableswith respect to a positiveBorelmeasure supported on an algebraic set is themain theme of this paper.As a step towards this goal quasi-orthogonality with respect to a non-zero Hermitian linear functional is studied in detail; this occupies a substantial part of the paper. Therefore necessary and sufficient conditions for quasi-orthogonality in ter...
