After 100 years of effort, the classification of all the finite subgroups of SU(3) is yet incomplete. The most recently updated list can be found in [3], where the structure of the series (C) and (D) of SU(3)-subgroups is studied. We provide a minimal set of generators for one of these groups which has order 162. These generators appear up to phase as the image of an irreducible unitary braid g...

The topological structure of scalar, vector, and second-order tensor fields provides an important mathematical basis for data analysis and visualization. In this paper, we extend this framework towards higher-order tensors. First, we establish formal uniqueness properties for a geometrically constrained tensor decomposition. This allows us to define and visualize topological structures in symme...

We compute the group of Morita self-equivalences (the Picard group) of a Poisson structure on an orientable surface, under the assumption that the degeneracies of the Poisson tensor are linear. The answer involves mapping class groups of surfaces, i.e., groups of isotopy classes of diffeomorphisms. We also show that the Picard group of these structures coincides with the group of outer Poisson ...

iran is among the world's arid and semi-arid countries. drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses affecting fruit trees and considerably can cause yield reduction. persian walnut (juglans regia l.) with significant area harvest is one the most important nuts in iran which require sufficient amounts of water for optimal growth and efficiency. in order to study the e...

pistachio has a special ranking among iranian agricultural products. iran is known as the largest producer and exporter of pistachio in the world. agricultural products are imposed under different thermal treatments during storage and processing. designing all these processes requires thermal parameters of the products such as specific heat capacity. regarding the importance of pistachio proces...

The problem of explicit generation of unitary operators for atomic systems with degenerate energy levels is considered. The Lie algebra structure is used to derive constructive control schemes for the creation of arbitrary superposition states and selective population interchanges for a transition between two three-fold degenerate energy levels.

Helicobacter pylori infection, the most common chronic bacterial infection in the world, and an important cause of gastrointestinal disorders, may be involved in the pathogenesis of some extra-gastrointestinal disturbances, as well as an increase in blood levels of certain inflammatory markers. Anti-bacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori and anti-inflammatory properties of omega-3 fatty...

objective: the role of herbs against the free radicals have been put forth recently in combating many diseases. the aim of this study was to elucidate the in vitro capacity and in vivo antioxidant properties of sedimental extract of tinospora cordifolia (setc). materials and methods: setcwas subjected to in vitro chemical analysis such as 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (dpph), nitric oxide, hydr...
