Geometric conditions for the reconstruction of a holomorphic function by an interpolation formula
We give here some precisions and improvements about the validity of the
explicit reconstruction of any holomorphic function on a ball of
from its restrictions on a family of complex lines. Such validity depends on
the mutual distribution of the lines. This condition can be geometrically
described and is equivalent to a stronger stability of the reconstruction
formula in terms of permutations and subfamilies of these lines. The motivation
of this problem comes from possible applications in mathematical economics and
medical imaging
Application of approximation theory by nonlinear manifolds in Sturm-Liouville inverse problems
We give here some negative results in Sturm-Liouville inverse theory, meaning
that we cannot approach any of the potentials with integrable derivatives
on by an -parametric analytic family better than order
of .
Next, we prove an estimation of the eigenvalues and characteristic values of
a Sturm-Liouville operator and some properties of the solution of a certain
integral equation. This allows us to deduce from [Henkin-Novikova] some
positive results about the best reconstruction formula by giving an almost
optimal formula of order of .Comment: 40 page
Effect of Fe doped over V–Sb oxide catalyst in toluene selective oxidation
Mixed oxides FexV1x SbO4 with x = 0–1.0 were prepared by slurry method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Mo¨ssbauerspectroscopy, and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR). The samples with x = 0, 0.4 and 1.0 were evaluated as catalyst in vapor phase toluenepartial oxidation reaction. It was found by XRD that Fe, as doping, was introduced in the rutile structure of VSbO4. The BET surface area ofpartially substituted solid with x = 0.4 was higher than those obtained for VSbO4 and FeSbO4 samples. It was shown that V is responsible of thehydrocarbon molecule activation. The catalyst with Fe x = 0.4 presented lower specific rate reaction and lower selectivity to total oxidationproducts than undoped solid (VSbO4), which it would be related to a partial replace of V by Fe in the V–O–V chains.In conclusion, the solid activity and selectivity to total oxidation decrease due to a higher isolation of V sites, when V3+ is substituted by Fe3+ inthe rutile structure.Fil: Romero, Adriana.

Novel, technical advance: a new grapevine transpiration prototype for grape berries and whole bunch based on relative humidity sensors
Grape berry transpiration is considered an important process during maturation, but scientific evidence is scarce. In the literature, there is only one report showing reduced maturation when bunch transpiration is artificially slowed down. Traditionally, grape berry transpiration has been measured by weighing grape berries on scale for a given time, correctly assuming that the weight reduction is due to water lost. Commercially available instruments adequate to measure gas exchange in small fruits are not suitable for whole grape berry bunch.
Here, we present an open differential chamber system that can be used with isolated grape berries or alternatively with a whole grape berry bunch for measuring grape berry/bunch transpiration based on the use of relative humidity sensors from Vaisala.
When used with isolated grape berries, open differential chamber system validation was made by using Tempranillo grape berries collected at different phenological stages. For the whole bunch transpiration prototype, two different validations were made. Firstly, measurements were made inserting inside the chamber an increasing number of Eppendorf tubes filled with water. Secondly, transpiration was measured in whole Tempranillo bunches sampled at different phenological stages. An important output of this work is that the fact of detaching the bunch from the plant did not change the bunch gas exchange rates at least for several hours
