Takeover Protections and Asset Prices

We study the effects of takeover feasibility on asset prices and returns in a unified framework. We show theoretically that takeover protections increase equity risk, stock returns, and bond yields by removing a valuable put option to sell the firm, notabl ...

Construction of Fe3O4 bridged Pt/g-C3N4 heterostructure with enhanced solar to fuel conversion

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin

In this study, we report the effects of co-catalysts of Pt nanoparticles and Fe3O4 clusters on photocatalytic behaviors of g-C3N4 (CN) and the use of the resulting photocatalyst for CO2 photoreduction to solar fuels in a flow reactor operated at room-tempe ...

Sparsely Observed Functional Time Series: Theory and Applications

Tomas Rubin

Functional time series is a temporally ordered sequence of not necessarily independent random curves. While the statistical analysis of such data has been traditionally carried out under the assumption of completely observed functional data, it may well ha ...

Linear flavor-wave theory for fully antisymmetric SU( N ) irreducible representations

Frédéric Mila, Pierre Marcel Nataf, Francisco Hyunkyu Kim, Karlo Penc

The extension of the linear flavor-wave theory to fully antisymmetric irreducible representations (irreps) of SU(N) is presented in order to investigate the color order of SU(N) antiferromagnetic Heisenberg models in several two-dimensional geometries. The ...

Nucleophilic Reactivity of a Nitride-Bridged Diuranium(IV) Complex: CO2 and CS2 Functionalization

Marinella Mazzanti, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain, Marta Falcone

Thermolysis of the nitride-bridged diuranium(IV) complex Cs{(-N)U(OSi((OBu)-Bu-t)(3))(3)} (1) showed that the bridging nitride behaves as a strong nucleophile, promoting N-C bond formation by siloxide ligand fragmentation to yield an imido-bridged sil ...

Chiral Phosphoric Acid Catalyzed Asymmetric Ugi Reaction by Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of the Primary Multicomponent Adduct

Jieping Zhu

Reaction of isonitriles with 3-(arylamino)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones in the presence of a catalytic amount of an octahydro (R)-binol-derived chiral phosphoric acid afforded 3-oxo-2-arylisoindoline-1-carboxamides in high yields with good to high enantioselect ...

Biosurfactant production through Bacillus sp MTCC 5877 and its multifarious applications in food industry

Edgard Gnansounou

In this study Bacillus sp. MTCC5877 was explored for the production of biosurfactant (BSs) and various carbon sources 1% (w/v), 0.5% (w/v) nitrogen sources were tested at different pH, and temperature. Yield was measured in terms of Emulsification index (E ...

Exterior Convexity And Classical Calculus Of Variations

Saugata Bandyopadhyay, Swarnendu Sil

We study the relation between various notions of exterior convexity introduced in [S. Bandyopadhyay, B. Dacorogna and S. Sil, J. Eur. Math. Soc. 17 (2015) 1009-1039.] with the classical notions of rank one convexity, quasiconvexity and polyconvexity. To th ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel 'diastole-patching' algorithm for the estimation of pulse transit time: advancing the precision in pulse wave velocity measurement

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis

Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard for the assessment of aortic stiffness. It is calculated by the ratio of pulse transit time (PTT) between two arterial sites and the distance between them. The precision of PTT estimation de ...

Iron-Catalyzed [3+2] Annulation of Aminocyclopropanes with Aldehydes: Stereoselective Synthesis of Aminotetrahydrofurans

Jérôme Waser, Fides Benfatti, Florian Patrick Marie Daniel De la Barre De Nanteuil

The first method for the [3 + 2] annulation of donor acceptor aminocyclopropanes with aldehydes is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by iron trichlorlde on alumina in yields up to 99% and with excellent cis selectivities (up to >20:1) and represents a st ...

Long Run Forward Rates and Long Yields of Bonds and Options in Heterogeneous Equilibria

Semyon Malamud

We prove that, in a heterogeneous economy with scale-invariant utilities, the yield of a long term bond is determined by the agent with maximal expected marginal utility. We also prove that the same result holds for the long term forward rates. Furthermore ...

Direct measurement of drainage curves in infiltration of SiC particle preforms

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Maryam Bahraini Hasani

Drainage curves (plots of the non-wetting fluid saturation versus applied pressure) for infiltration of SiC particle preforms with Al and Al-12.2 at.% Si are measured at 1023 K (750 degrees C) with a pressure infiltration apparatus adapted for direct track ...

Improving the Fault Tolerance of Nanometric PLA Designs

Giovanni De Micheli, David Atienza Alonso, Luca Benini, Federico Angiolini, Mohamed Haykel Ben Jamaa

Several alternative building blocks have been proposed to replace planar transistors, among which a prominent spot belongs to nanometric laments such as Silicon NanoWires (SiNWs) and Carbon NanoTubes (CNTs). However, chips leveraging these nanoscale struct ...

Trend-oriented sampling strategy and estimation of soluble reactive phosphorus loads in streams

Alfred Johny Wüest

[1] Nutrient transfer from soils to surface waters is associated with large, hydrologically induced fluctuations. Consequently, stream-based estimation of long-term changes in nutrient leaching is masked by variations of stream discharge. Using high-resolu ...
