we have recently synthesized [ni (map) ] complex [h-map= 2- (methylamino) pyridine]. 2- (methy1amino)pyridine reacts with meli in thf and generates the lithium salt (li-map). further reaction of nicl with two equivalent of this ligand in thf leads to the formation of a dark red solution. analytical data, molecular weight, and magnetic susceptibility of this complex confirm the formula [ni (map)...

The aim of this paper is to study the concept of -induced L-fuzzy topological spaces. Some properties of the functions (namely Scott-continuous function) are studied. The Scott-continuous functions turn out to be the natural tool for studying the -induced L-fuzzy topological space. We also discuss the connections between some separations, countability and covering properties of an ordinary topo...

Digit distributions are a popular tool for the detection of tax payers’ noncompliance and other fraud. In the early stage of digital analysis, Nigrini and Mittermaier (1997) made use of Benford’s Law (Benford 1938) as a natural reference distribution. A justification of that hypothesis is only known for multiplicative sequences (Schatte 1988). In applications, most of the number generating proc...

Conflicting and complex forces are shaping the diffusion patterns of the Internet and e-commerce in South Asia. Drawing upon the literature on institutional theory, we explore the drivers and inhibitors of the Internet in South Asian countries. We examine the influence of the three pillars of institutions (Scott, 1995) on the digital world of South Asia. The paper discusses how regulatory, norm...

Soil degradation has been implicated as a cause of the poor vegetation condition over much of the unimproved tussock grassland in the South Island high country and as a threat to the sustainability of extensive pastoralism (Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, 1991; South Island High Country Review Working Party, 1994). A key requirement for assessment of sustainability is an ability...
