During contact activation of plasma, cleavage of surface-bound Hageman factor (HF) 1 occurs at two closely situated sites, one within a disulfide loop, termed "site 1", and one outside the disulfide loop, termed "site 2" (1). The result of these cleavages is two forms of active HF (2) which we have given the names a-HF a and fi-HFa. Fig. 1 defines these two forms based on their derivation (last...

This paper is concerned with the existence of globally smooth solutions for the second boundary value problem for Monge-Ampere equations and the application to regularity of potentials in optimal transportation. The cost functions satisfy a weak form of our condition A3, under which we proved interior regularity in a recent paper with Xi-nan Ma. Consequently they include the quadratic cost func...

We investigate on the plane the axial anomaly for euclidean Dirac fermions in the presence of a background Aharonov–Bohm gauge potential. The non perturbative analysis depends on the self–adjoint extensions of the Dirac operator and the result is shown to be influenced by the actual way of understanding the local axial current. The role of the quantum mechanical parameters involved in the expre...

The gravitational radiation from point particle binaries is computed at the third post-Newtonian (3PN) approximation of general relativity. Three previously introduced ambiguity parameters, coming from the Hadamard self-field regularization of the 3PN source-type mass quadrupole moment, are consistently determined by means of dimensional regularization, and proved to have the values xi=-9871/92...

The chiral expansion of the ππ amplitude to the order of two loops was expressed in terms of six independent parameters in a previous paper: four of these are shown here to satisfy sum rules. Their derivation, where crossing symmetry plays a key role, is explained. Their convergence properties are studied and their practical evaluation, in terms of the available data on ππ phase shifts above 0....

In practical applications, the rational operation rule derivation can lead to significant improvements in middle and long-term joint of cascade hydropower stations. The key issue actual optimal is select effective attributions from deterministic results, however, there still no general mature method solve this problem. Firstly, model reservoirs considering backwater effects are established. The...

Abstract. Let R be a 2-torsion free ring with identity. In this paper, first we prove that any Jordan left derivation (hence, any left derivation) on the full matrix ringMn(R) (n 2) is identically zero, and any generalized left derivation on this ring is a right centralizer. Next, we show that if R is also a prime ring and n 1, then any Jordan left derivation on the ring Tn(R) of all n×n uppe...

the aim of this paper is to show that under some mild conditions a functional equation of multiplicative (; )-derivation is superstable on standard operator algebras. furthermore, we prove that this generalized derivation can be a continuous and an inner (; )- derivation.
