On free energies of the Ising model on the Cayley tree

We present, for the Ising model on the Cayley tree, some explicit formulae of the free energies (and entropies) according to boundary conditions (b.c.). They include translation-invariant, periodic, Dobrushin-like b.c., as well as those corresponding to (recently discovered) weakly periodic Gibbs states. The later are defined through a partition of the tree that induces a 4-edge-coloring. We compute the density of each color.Comment: 18 pages, 4 figure

Информационно-библиотечная инфраструктура Узбекистана: трёхуровневая модель управления

The current trends in information infrastructure and its component information library infrastructure (ILI) are analyzed. The specific characteristics of Uzbekistan ILI are: building libraries for modern technological applications and developing existing infrastructure. The main problems the ministries and library community face are revealed. The ILI organizational model based on hierarchy is discussed. The author considers the three-level system to be the most efficient for the libraries’ interdepartmental interaction. This would provide for information cooperation in building union resources (e-catalogs, databases), and library management. Taking into account the specific character of library management in the Republic of Uzbekistan, the ILI based on the corporate library networks of various departments would enable: to computerize information acquisition, accumulation and transfer at all levels for efficient management; to provide open access to union e-catalog for all libraries and users; to build libraries’ local digital resources; to increase efficiency of interaction and cooperation between the National Library and the libraries of various departments; to save money and human assets through excluded work duplication and intensive information exchange.Проанализированы современные тенденции развития информационной инфраструктуры, а также информационно-библиотечной инфраструктуры (ИБИ) как её важной составляющей. Раскрыты специфические аспекты ИБИ Республики Узбекистан: строительство библиотек, работающих с применением современных технологий; развитие существующей инфраструктуры. Определены основные проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются руководство министерств, библиотечное сообщество. Рассмотрена модель развития ИБИ, основанная на специфике организационного управления в республике и иерархической структуре. Наиболее дееспособной представляется трёхуровневая система взаимодействия библиотек разных ведомств. Это особенно важно для информационной кооперации библиотек при формировании сводных ресурсов (электронного каталога, баз данных), а также управления деятельностью библиотек. Учитывая специфику управления библиотеками в республике, создание ИБИ на базе корпоративных сетей библиотек разных ведомств позволит: автоматизировать формирование, накопление и передачу информации на разных уровнях для эффективного управления инфраструктурой; предоставить открытый онлайн-доступ к сводному электронному каталогу для всех библиотек и читателей, а библиотекам – эффективные возможности для создания собственных локальных электронных ресурсов; повысить эффективность взаимодействия и кооперации между Национальной библиотекой и другими библиотеками разных ведомств; экономить денежные средства и кадровые ресурсы за счёт устранения дублирования работ и активного обмена информацией

Identification of mineral associations in skarn-rare-metallic deposits in Western Uzbekistan

This article solves the applied scientific problem of identifying mineral carriers and mineral associations of platinum mineralization in the skarn-gold-rare metal Koytash and Lyangar deposits. One of the applied research tasks was to identify the forms of mineral carriers and mineral associations of platinum-metal mineralization for these deposits. We carried out geological fieldwork of the Koytash and Lyangar deposits, which included a sampling of sulphide-rare metal and silver-polymetallic ores, and conducted laboratory studies by using mass spectrometry, atomic absorption, electron microprobe, and other modern methods. This article addresses the complex formation of sulphide-rare-metal and silver-polymetallic ores of the above-mentioned deposits. The formation of mineral associations bearing rare-metal (W-Mo) mineralization that formed in the early alkaline stage, in almost all sites, is completed by sulphide-rare metal and silver-polymetallic mineralization that often carry industrial-grade concentrations of noble and other metals. We have identified a recommended location for the concomitant extraction of useful components, the mineral composition, and the impure elements in them. These data show the prospects of sulphide-rare metals and sulphidepoly-metallic ores in the Koytash deposit for precious metals, bismuth, etc

PROTECTION OF SCIENTIFIC AND EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES IN INFORMATION AND LIBRARY SYSTEMS

Introduction. The authors of the article highlight the results of research on the development of methods and tools for ensuring the information security of scientific and educational resources in information library systems and corporate information networks. The analysis of the state of the problem and the existing approaches on this topic are given too.Materials and Methods. The approach justifies the need to protect scientific resources from unauthorized access and the use of fuzzy logic to solve the problem. As a model and solution method, a fuzzy model correspondences is proposed, which makes it possible to comprehensively solve the problem of identifying threats in the event of a situation, as well as provide recommendations on how to eliminate them. For the formation of a knowledge base, experts are involved who determine the functions of belonging to knowlege base “Situation — Threats — Actions to eliminate the threats”.Results. The research results are being implemented as part of the ARMAT++ information library system of the corporate network of electronic libraries of 63 Uzbekistan universities for the protection of scientific and educational information from unauthorized access. Testing of the methods, programs of the subsystem and the expert knowledge base are carried out on the basis of information and resource centers under the project “Virtual electronic library of the Tashkent University of Information Technologies named after Muhammad Al-Khorezmi and its five branches”.Discussion and Conclusions. The use of the apparatus of fuzzy logic for the formation of a knowledge base of the “Situation — Threats — Actions to eliminate the threats” type in information library systems significantly increases the degree of protection of valuable information resources from unauthorized access

PHOTOLUMINESCENCE AND RAMAN SPECTRA OF DIAMOND MICROPOWDERS PLACED IN PHOTON TRAPS

The photoluminescence and Raman spectra of diamond micropowders placed in photon traps under repetitively pulsed excitation by a copper vapor laser are studied. The recorded spectra of the photoluminescence and Raman spectra of micro-diamond powders were characterized by anomalously high intensity, which was associated with the trapping of exciting radiation in microparticles, the size of which significantly exceeded the lasing wavelength

Assessment of the Effects of Ramipril and Pirindopril on Left Ventricle Systolic Function in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction without ST Segment Elevation

This article analyzes the effect of ramipril and pyrindopril on the systolic function of the left ventricle in patients with acute myocardial infarction without ST segment elevation hospitalized in the ACS department of the Samarkand Regional Branch of the Republican Scientific and Practical Specialized Medical Center for Cardiology. The mean age of the patients was 55.7±3.4 years. All patients received standard AMI treatment ( statin, ASA, clopidogrel, beta-blocker, ACE inhibitor ) and were divided into 2 comparable groups depending on the therapy: in the 1st group (n=31), ramipril was used as an ACE in the initial dose of 5 mg 1 time per day, in the 2nd group (n=35) - pyrindopril at an initial dose of 2 mg 1 time per day with dose titration to the maximum tolerated. In a comparative assessment of the effectiveness of ACE inhibitors in patients in the early period of AMI, a more significant clinical efficacy and effect on postinfarction LV remodeling, a more significant effect on indicators of endothelial dysfunction and systemic inflammation with the use of ramipril were noted, which allows us to recommend it as the drug of choice in the treatment of patients with AMI, including to preserve the systolic function of the left ventricle
