Pot, atom and step economic (PASE) synthesis of highly functionalized piperidines: a five-component condensation

The diastereoselective pot, atom and step economic (PASE) synthesis of highly functionalized piperidines has been realized. The procedure simply involves mixing methyl acetoacetate, 2 equiv of aldehyde and 2 equiv of aniline together in the presence of InCl3. In most cases the piperidine precipitates out of solution.

Rational Points on Elliptic Curves y^2=x^3+a^3 in f_{p} where p{\equiv}1(mod6) is Prime

In this work, we consider the rational points on elliptic curves over finite fields F_{p}. We give results concerning the number of points on the elliptic curve y^2{\equiv}x^3+a^3(mod p)where p is a prime congruent to 1 modulo 6. Also some results are given on the sum of abscissae of these points. We give the number of solutions to y^2{\equiv}x^3+a^3(modp), also given in ([1], p.174), this time by means of the quadratic residue character, in a different way, by using the cubic residue character. Using the Weil conjecture, one can generalize the results concerning the number of points in F_{p} to F_{p^{r}}.Comment: 9 pages; Keywords: Elliptic curves over finite fields, rational point

Gauge symmetries decrease the number of Dp-brane dimensions

It is known that the presence of antisymmetric background field $B_{\mu\nu}$ leads to noncommutativity of Dp-brane manifold. Addition of the linear dilaton field in the form $\Phi(x)=\Phi_0+a_\mu x^\mu$, causes the appearance of the commutative Dp-brane coordinate $x=a_\mu x^\mu$. In the present article we show that for some particular choices of the background fields, $a^2\equiv G^{\mu\nu}a_\mu a_\nu=0$ and $\tilde a^2\equiv [ (G-4BG^{-1}B)^{-1}\ ]^{\mu\nu}a_\mu a_\nu=0$, the local gauge symmetries appear in the theory. They turn some Neuman boundary conditions into the Dirichlet ones, and consequently decrease the number of the Dp-brane dimensions.Comment: We improve Sec.4. and Conclusion and we added the Appendix in order to clarify result

On a variant of Giuga numbers

In this paper, we characterize the odd positive integers $n$ satisfying the congruence $\sum_{j=1} ^ {n-1} j^{\frac{n-1}{2}}\equiv 0 \pmod n$. We show that the set of such positive integers has an asymptotic density which turns out to be slightly larger than 3/8.Comment: 14 page

Cosmological solutions for model with a 1/H21/H^{2} term

We drive the cosmological solutions of five-dimensional model with $1/H^{2}$ term $(H^{2}\equiv H_{MNPQ}H^{MNPQ})$, where $H_{MNPQ}$ is 4-form field strength. The behaviors of the scale factors and the scalar potential in effective theory are examined.As a consequence, we show that the universe changes from decelerated expansion to accelerated expansion in Einstein frame of the four-dimensional theory.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, version to appear in JCA
