Range restricted C2 interpolant to scattered data
The construction of a range restricted bivariate C2 interpolant to scattered data is considered in which the interpolant is positive everywhere if the original data are positive. Sufficient conditions are derived on Bezier points in order to ensure that surfaces comprising quintic Bezier triangular patches are always positive and satisfy C2 continuity conditions. The first and second derivatives at the data sites are then calculated (and modified if necessary) to ensure that these conditions are satisfied. Its construction is local and easily extended to include as upper and lower constraints to the interpolating surfaces of the form z = C(x,y) where C is a polynomial of degree less or equal to 5. A number of examples are presented

Data on groundwater quality, scaling potential and corrosiveness of water samples in Torbat-e-Heydariyeh rural drinking water resources, Khorasan-e-Razavi province, Iran
According to World Health Organization guidelines, corrosion control is an important aspect of safe drinking-water supplies. The data presented is physical and chemical parameters of drinking water in the rural areas of Torbat-e-Heydariyeh city, also to determine corrosion indices. This cross-sectional study has carried out with 188 taken samples during 2014 with 13 parameters, which has been analyzed based on standard method. Also with regard to standard conditions, result of this paper is compared with Environmental Protection Agency and Iran national standards. Five indices, Langlier Saturation Index (LSI), Ryznar Stability Index (RSI), Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI), Larson-Skold Index (LS) and Aggressive Index (AI), programmed by using Microsoft Excel software. Owing to its simplicity, the program can easily be used by researchers and operators. Parameters included Sulfate, Sodium, Chloride, and Electrical Conductivity respectively was 13.5%, 28%, 10.5%, and 15% more than standard level. The amounts of Nitrate, in 98% of cases were in permissible limits and about 2% were more than standard level. Result of presented research indicate that water is corrosive at 10.6%, 89.4%, 87.2%, 59.6% and 14.9% of drinking water supply reservoirs, according to LSI, RSI, PSI, LS and AI, respectively. © 2018 The Author
Electron self-trapping on a nano-circle
We study the self-trapping of quasiparticles (electrons, holes, excitons,
etc) in a molecular chain with the structure of a ring, taking into account the
electron-phonon interaction and the radial and tangential deformations of the
chain. A discrete system of equations is obtained and solved numerically. The
analytical solutions for the wave function of a quasiparticle and for the
molecule displacements that determine the distortion of the ring, are also
obtained and solved in the continuum approximation. The numerical solutions of
the system of discrete nonlinear equations reveals several regimes of
quasiparticle localisation in the chain which depend on the values of the
parameters of the system. It is shown that the transversal deformation of the
chain favours the formation of a soliton.Comment: 43 pages 9 figure
Freezing/melting of water in the confined nanospace of carbon materials: Effect of an external stimulus
Freezing/melting behavior of water confined in the nanopores of activated carbon materials has been evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at different water loadings, and after the application of an external stimulus. Under atmospheric pressure conditions, the DSC scans show a depression in the freezing/melting point of confined water compared to the bulk system. Interestingly, water confined in narrow micropores (pores below 0.7 nm) does not exhibit any phase transition, i.e. it is non-freezable water. Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) data confirm the presence of a distorted molecular assembly in narrow micropores, whereas synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data (SXRPD) demonstrate the non-freezable nature of the water confined in these narrow-constrictions. Similar experiments under high-pressure CH4 give rise to a completely different scenario. Under high-pressure conditions methane hydrates are formed with a water-to-hydrate yield of 100% for the under-saturated and saturated samples, i.e. in the presence of an external stimulus even water in narrow micropores is prone to experience a liquid-to-solid phase transition. These results confirm the beneficial role of carbon as a host structure to promote nucleation and growth of methane hydrates with faster kinetics and a higher yield compared to the bulk system and to other porous materials.The authors would like to acknowledge financial support from the MINECO (MAT2016-80285-p), Generalitat Valenciana (PROMETEOII/2014/004), H2020 (MSCA-RISE-2016/NanoMed Project), Spanish ALBA synchrotron (Projects 2018022707 & 2019023322) and Oak Ridge beam time availability (Project IPTS-20843.1)
Once again about quantum deformations of D=4 Lorentz algebra: twistings of q-deformation
This paper together with the previous one (arXiv:hep-th/0604146) presents the
detailed description of all quantum deformations of D=4 Lorentz algebra as Hopf
algebra in terms of complex and real generators. We describe here in detail two
quantum deformations of the D=4 Lorentz algebra o(3,1) obtained by twisting of
the standard q-deformation U_{q}(o(3,1)). For the first twisted q-deformation
an Abelian twist depending on Cartan generators of o(3,1) is used. The second
example of twisting provides a quantum deformation of Cremmer-Gervais type for
the Lorentz algebra. For completeness we describe also twisting of the Lorentz
algebra by standard Jordanian twist. By twist quantization techniques we obtain
for these deformations new explicit formulae for the deformed coproducts and
antipodes of the o(3,1)-generators.Comment: 17 page
A Chern-Simons approach to Galilean quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions
We define and discuss classical and quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions in the
Galilean limit. Although there are no Newtonian forces between massive objects
in (2+1)-dimensional gravity, the Galilean limit is not trivial. Depending on
the topology of spacetime there are typically finitely many topological degrees
of freedom as well as topological interactions of Aharonov-Bohm type between
massive objects. In order to capture these topological aspects we consider a
two-fold central extension of the Galilei group whose Lie algebra possesses an
invariant and non-degenerate inner product. Using this inner product we define
Galilean gravity as a Chern-Simons theory of the doubly-extended Galilei group.
The particular extension of the Galilei group we consider is the classical
double of a much studied group, the extended homogeneous Galilei group, which
is also often called Nappi-Witten group. We exhibit the Poisson-Lie structure
of the doubly extended Galilei group, and quantise the Chern-Simons theory
using a Hamiltonian approach. Many aspects of the quantum theory are determined
by the quantum double of the extended homogenous Galilei group, or Galilei
double for short. We study the representation theory of the Galilei double,
explain how associated braid group representations account for the topological
interactions in the theory, and briefly comment on an associated
non-commutative Galilean spacetime.Comment: 38 pages, 1 figure, references update
The fusion algebra of bimodule categories
We establish an algebra-isomorphism between the complexified Grothendieck
ring F of certain bimodule categories over a modular tensor category and the
endomorphism algebra of appropriate morphism spaces of those bimodule
categories. This provides a purely categorical proof of a conjecture by Ostrik
concerning the structure of F.
As a by-product we obtain a concrete expression for the structure constants
of the Grothendieck ring of the bimodule category in terms of endomorphisms of
the tensor unit of the underlying modular tensor category.Comment: 16 page
Free q-Schrodinger Equation from Homogeneous Spaces of the 2-dim Euclidean Quantum Group
After a preliminary review of the definition and the general properties of
the homogeneous spaces of quantum groups, the quantum hyperboloid qH and the
quantum plane qP are determined as homogeneous spaces of Fq(E(2)). The
canonical action of Eq(2) is used to define a natural q-analog of the free
Schro"dinger equation, that is studied in the momentum and angular momentum
bases. In the first case the eigenfunctions are factorized in terms of products
of two q-exponentials. In the second case we determine the eigenstates of the
unitary representation, which, in the qP case, are given in terms of Hahn-Exton
functions. Introducing the universal T-matrix for Eq(2) we prove that the
Hahn-Exton as well as Jackson q-Bessel functions are also obtained as matrix
elements of T, thus giving the correct extension to quantum groups of well
known methods in harmonic analysis.Comment: 19 pages, plain tex, revised version with added materia
