In the present paper we establish an abstract principle of condensation of singularities for families consisting of set-valued mappings. By using it as a basic tool, the condensation of the singularities and the equicontinuity of certain families of generalized convex set-valued mappings are studied. In particular, a principle of condensation of the singularities of families of closed convex pr...

The self-condensation of alkynals was for the first time implemented under mild organocatalytic conditions and was successfully linked with a domino organocatalytic inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder reaction, which led to the development of a facile one-pot method to produce a wide variety of polysubstituted chiral 3,4-dihydropyrans with good to high yields and diastereoselectivities and ...

Second-order time correlations of polaritons have been measured across the condensation threshold in a CdTe microcavity. The onset of Bose-Einstein condensation is marked by the disappearance of photon bunching, demonstrating the transition from a thermal-like state to a coherent state. Coherence is, however, degraded with increasing polariton density, most probably as a result of self-interact...

Cyclopentyl substituted silanetriol can be prepared and isolated. Its condensation yields the corresponding disiloxanetetrol as a primary condensation product. Further condensation leads to the hexameric polyhedral silsesquioxane cage T6. The latter has been mentioned in the literature before however, lacking structural data. All compounds have been characterized with multinuclear NMR spectrosc...

We perform canonical quantization of the open string on a unstable D-brane in the background of the tachyon condensation. Evaluating the Polyakov path-integral on a stripe, we obtain the field theoretical propagator in the open string theory. As the condensation occurs the string field theory is continuously deformed. At the infrared fixed point of the condensation, the open string field on the...

An F-theory dual of a nonsupersymmetric orientifold is considered. It is argued that the condensation of both open and closed string tachyons in the orientifold corresponds to the annihilation of branes and anti-branes in the F-theory dual. The end-point of tachyon condensation is thus expected to be the vacuum of Type-IIB superstring. Some speculations are presented about the F-theory dual of ...

We discuss tachyon configuration for the unoriented bosonic string theory which produces a bosonic string theory with SO(32) gauge symmetry in ten dimensions. It is closely related to the tachyon condensation scenario proposed by A. Sen. We also give the boundary state description of the tachyon condensation process, with some emphasis on the rôle of orbifold conformal field theory. Talk given ...

A series of new hexahydroquinoline and 1,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives were synthesized. Condensation of 2-methyl- thiazole-4-carboxaldehyde (1) with 1,3-cyclohexanedione and alkyl 3- aminocrotonate afforded 4-(2-methyl-thiazol-4-yl)-hexahydroquinoline while condensation of aldehyde (1) with benzoyl acetone and thiourea gave 1,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives. The stereochemistry of 1,4-dihydr...

We analyze the condensation phase transitions in out-of-equilibrium complex networks in a unifying framework which includes the nonlinear model and the fitness model as its appropriate limits. We show a novel phase structure which depends on both the fitness parameter and the nonlinear exponent. The occurrence of the condensation phase transitions in the dynamical evolution of the network is de...

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of evaporation and condensation on the underfloor space of Japanese detached houses. In this underfloor space, natural ventilation is applied. A typical Japanese wooden detached house is raised 0.3–0.5 m over an underfloor space made of concrete. The bottom of the underfloor space is usually paved with concrete, and the ceiling whi...
