We present an up-to-date survey of theoretical concepts and results in the field of one-dimensional magnetism and of their relevance to experiments and real materials. Main emphasis of the chapter is on quantum phenomena in models of localized spins with isotropic exchange and additional interactions from anisotropy and external magnetic fields. Three sections deal with the main classes of mode...

We present a new approach to the study of multiplier ideals in a local, two-dimensional setting. Our method allows us to deal with ideals, graded systems of ideals and plurisubharmonic functions in a unified way. Among the applications are a formula for the complex integrability exponent of a plurisubharmonic function in terms of Kiselman numbers, and a proof of the openness conjecture by Demai...

We derive a new expression for the diagonal matrix elements of irreducible representations of the symmetric group. We obtain this new expression using Cherednik’s fusion procedure. However, instead of rows or columns, we consider the hooks of Young diagrams. This minimises the number of auxiliary parameters needed in the fusion procedure.

Four trials were conducted to determine the effect of different levels of nodular worm (Oesophagostomum spp.) infection on the performance of growing-finishing swine and on digestion and absorption of nutrients by the growing pig. In each of two growing-finishing trials, 48 crossbred pigs (average body weight 26.6 kg in trial 1 and 24.4 kg in trial 2) were individually housed and given a single...

It is shown that coherence conditions for monoidal categories concerning associativity are analogous to coherence conditions for symmetric strictly monoidal categories, where associativity arrows are identities. Mac Lane’s pentagonal coherence condition for associativity is decomposed into conditions concerning commutativity, among which we have a condition analogous to naturality and a degener...

The delta-sarcoglycan-deficient hamster is an excellent model to study muscular dystrophy. Gait disturbances, important clinically, have not been described in this animal model. We applied ventral plane videography (DigiGait) to analyze gait in BIO TO-2 dystrophic and BIO F1B control hamsters walking on a transparent treadmill belt. Stride length was ∼13% shorter (P < .05) in TO-2 hamsters at 9...

A new class of the constrained Monte Carlo (CMC) algorithms for the QCD evolution equation was recently discovered. The constraint is imposed on the type and the total longitudinal energy of the parton exiting QCD evolution and entering a hard process. The efficiency of the new CMCs is found to be reasonable. Contribution to the HERA–LHC Workshop, 2004–2005 IFJPAN-V-05-09 CERN-PH-TH/2005-146 Su...
