(2017-05-12)
Disruptions are large-scale stochastic events that rarely happen but have a major effect on supply networks’ topology. Some examples include: air traffic being suspended due to weather or terrorism, labor unions strike, ...
COPPER CHEMISTRY OF PYRIDYLALKYLBENZAMIDE LIGANDS: MODELING THE CUZ CENTER OF N2OR AND COORDINATION POLYMER CHEMISTRY
(2011)
In nature, the reduction of N2O to N2 is the terminal step of the denitrification process, which is catalyzed by nitrous oxide reductase (N2OR). The catalytic CuZ center was found to be a novel μ4-sulfide bridged ...
Classification, Cobordism, and Curvature of Four-Dimensional Infra-Solvmanifolds
(2014)
Crystallographic groups of solvable Lie groups generalize the crystallographic groups of Euclidean space. The quotient of a solvable Lie group G by the action of a torsion-free crystallographic group of G is an infra-solvmanifold ...
Representations of the marked Brauer algebra
