An Upper Bound for the Number of Planar Lattice Triangulations

We prove an exponential upper bound for the number $f(m,n)$ of all maximal triangulations of the $m\times n$ grid: $$f(m,n) < 2^{3mn}.$$ In particular, this improves a result of S. Yu. Orevkov (1999).Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Yu. M. Smirnov's General Equivariant Shape Theory

A general equivariant shape theory for arbitrary $G$-spaces in the case of a compact group $G$ is constructed by using the method of pseudometrics suggested by Yu. M. Smirnov as early as in 1985 at the fifth Tiraspol symposium on general topology and its applications.Comment: 8 page

Reply to "Comment on 'Topological stability of the half-vortices in spinor exciton-polariton condensates'"

In a recent work [H. Flayac, I.A. Shelykh, D.D. Solnyshkov and G. Malpuech, Phys. Rev. B 81, 045318 (2010)], we have analyzed the effect of the TE-TM splitting on the stability of the exciton-polariton vortex states. We considered classical vortex solutions having cylindrical symmetry and we found that the so-called half-vortex states [Yu. G. Rubo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 106401 (2007)] are not solutions of the stationary Gross-Pitaevskii equation. In their Comment [M. Toledo Solano, Yu.G. Rubo, Phys. Rev. B 82, 127301 (2010)], M. Toledo Solano and Yuri G. Rubo claim that this conclusion is misleading and pretend to demonstrate the existence of static half-vortices in an exciton-polariton condensate in the presence of TE-TM splitting. In this reply we explain why this assertion is not demonstrated satisfactorily.Comment: 3 Pages, no figur

Producing innovation: Comments on Lee and Yu (2010)

The purpose of the article being reviewed (Lee and Yu, 2010), a survey by questionnaire with 182 valid responses, is to analyze “how different relationship styles of employees in the hi-tech industry influence innovation performance” and indeed its conclusions are that “the relationship style of an organization has a significant positive effect on innovation performance”. We see Lee and Yu (2010) as being similar to another highly cited article by Morgan and Hunt in so far as both articles are about relationships, cooperation and trust
