Boolean Functions With Important Cryptographic Properties., Subhamoy Maitra Dr. Feb 2001

Boolean Functions With Important Cryptographic Properties., Subhamoy Maitra Dr.

Doctoral Theses

In this thesis we concentrate on properties of cryptographically significant Boolean functions.The techniques are mainly combinstorial and provide new resulta on enumeration and construction of such functions. Initially we concentrate on a partieular subset of Boolean functions called the symmetric Boolean functions. A closed form expression for the Walsh transform of an arbitrary symmetric Boolean function is presented. We completely characterize the symmetric functions with maximum nonlinearity and show that the maximum nonlinearity of n-variable symmetrie function can be 2n-1-2[n-1l2], Moreover, new classes of symmetric balanced and symmetric correlation immune functions are considered.We provide a randomised heuristic to construct balanced …


Adsorption Behavior Of Co At The Ultrathin Rh And Pt Film Electrodes, Yong Xie, Xiao-Qin Li, Bin Ren, Zhong-Qun Tian Feb 2001

Adsorption Behavior Of Co At The Ultrathin Rh And Pt Film Electrodes, Yong Xie, Xiao-Qin Li, Bin Ren, Zhong-Qun Tian

Journal of Electrochemistry

Pt group metals have been widely used in catalysis such as hydrogenation of organic compounds and the oxidation of carbon monoxide. The information about CO adsorption on the Pt group surfaces and the influence of other surface species, such as hydrogen and CO2 will be greatly helpful to elucidate the adsorption behavior of CO on Pt group metal surfaces and get a deeper understanding of catalytic mechanisms of Pt group metals. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been becoming an increasingly important means to characterize the electrochemical metal solution interface over the past two decades. Our laboratory has successfully …

Adsorption And Oxidation Of Ethanol On Nm-Pt/Gc Electrode Ii. Eqcm And In-Situ Ftir Spectroscopic Studies In Acid Media, Guo-Liang Chen, Sheng-Pei Chen, Zhi-You Zhou, Chun-Hua Zhen, Shi-Gang Sun

Journal of Electrochemistry

The adsorption and oxidation of ethanol on nm Pt/GC electrode in acid solutions containing 0.1 mol·L -1 H2SO4 +0.1 mol·L -1 CH3CH2OH was investigated by using cyclic voltammetry, EQCM and in situ FTIR spectroscopy. The experimental results demonstrated that the oxidation of CH3CH2OH is closely relaed to solution acidity and oxygen species on electrode surface; CH3CH2OH was oxidized on nm Pt/GC electrode in acidic media via a dual path reaction mechanism, i.e . CH3CH2OH may be oxidized into CO2 through …

The Photoelectrochemistry Of Tio2-Polyaniline Composite Film, Huai-Guo Huang, Zhi-Xin Zheng, Jin Luo, Hong-Ping Zhang, Ling-Ling Wu, Zhong-Hua Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

A TiO2 and polyaniline (PANI) composite film was obtained by electrochemical methods. The SEM image of the composite film showed that the PANI film is almost completely covered with TiO2 efficiency. The spectra of photocurrent for the TiO2-PANI composite film were different from these of TiO2 film photosensitized by PANI. The bandgap energy of TiO2 film on partially oxidized PANI film was determined as 3.0 eV by the threshold energy of photocurrent band for TiO2. The spectra of photocurrent for partially oxidized PANI film electrode suggested that it has the characteristics of …

Catalytic Effect Of Cl- On Electrodeposition Of Binary Zinc Alloys With Iron Group Metals, Ren-He Yin, Zheng-Hua Fang, Wei-Min Cao, A.Za Karia, Rong-Ming Zhou

Journal of Electrochemistry

Zinc iron group metal alloys were deposited under coulostatic (10C⋅cm-2) at 40 ℃ chloride baths. The deposited alloys were quantitatively analyzed by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. The current efficiency, percent content and partial polarization curves were obtained by the results. The morphology of the deposits was observed by means of Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM). We observe that the electrodeposition of zinc iron group metal alloys is one of the best known examples of anomalous codeposition. We found the catalytic effect of Cl- on the electrodeposition behavior of iron group metal. Overpotential of iron group metal droped abruptly at high …

Who’S Afraid Of Amazon.Com V. Barnesandnoble.Com?, Stephen Dirksen, Kyle Grimshaw, Michael Hostetler, Ian Jinkerson, Michael Kim

Duke Law & Technology Review

On October 2, 2000, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit heard the appeal in the case of Amazon.com, Inc. v. Barnesandnoble.com, Inc. This appeal revolves around the alleged infringement by Barnesandnoble.com of a one-click web-shopping system patented by Amazon.com. The one-click system is among a series of recent controversial "business method" patents. According to some, business methods are legitimate inventions that deserve the protection of the US Patent and Trademark Office (PTO). According to others, business methods are unworthy of patent protection and may inhibit innovation in e-commerce. The outcome of this case has been widely anticipated by …

Interplay Between Plasmons And The Band Structure For The Mo(112) Surface, I. N. Yakovkin, Jiandi Zhang, Peter A. Dowben Feb 2001

Interplay Between Plasmons And The Band Structure For The Mo(112) Surface, I. N. Yakovkin, Jiandi Zhang, Peter A. Dowben

Peter Dowben Publications

Recent photoemission and inverse photoemission results for the Mo(112) surface are discussed in the framework of the calculated band structure. For the Mo(112) surface, the main photoemission features combine contributions from both the surface and the bulk. Except for those photon energies near to excitations of the bulk and multipole surface plasmons, the comparison of the bulk band structure, along the k points normal to the surface, shows a good agreement with photoemission spectra in the position of the critical points. The dominant surface states at Г̅̅̅ are found to have the a1 symmetry, while the band along Г̅̅̅ …

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

The field of environmental toxicology, particularly as related to the area of ecotoxicology, continues to be a rapidly developing discipline of environmental science (Connell and Miller, 1984; Duffus 1980; Guthie and Perry, 1980; Hoffman et al., 1995; Moriarity 1988; Truhaut, 1977). The term ecotoxicology was introduced by Truhaut in 1969 (Truhaut, 1977) and this field is a natural extension of toxicology. It is best defined as the study of the fate and effects of toxic substances on an ecosystem and is based on scientific research employing both field and laboratory methods (Kendall, 1982; Kendall, 1992; and Hoffman et al., 1995). …

Inclusive Jet Production In Pp̅ Collisions, B. Abbott Feb 2001

Inclusive Jet Production In Pp̅ Collisions, B. Abbott

Gregory Snow Publications

We report a new measurement of the pseudorapidity (η) and transverse-energy (ET) dependence of the inclusive jet production cross section in pp̅ collisions at √s = TeV using 95 pb-1 of data collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The differential cross section d2σ/(dErdη) is presented up to |η| = 3, significantly extending previous measurements. The results are in good overall agreement with next-to-leading order predictions from QCD and indicate a preference for certain parton distribution functions.

Differential cross sections for dijet photoproduction in association with a leading neutron using the reaction e+ + p → e+ + n + jet + jet + Xr have been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 6.4 pb-1. The fraction of dijet events with a leading neutron in the final state was studied as a function of the jet kinematic variables. The cross sections were measured for jet transverse energies EjetT > 6 GeV, neutron energy En > 400 GeV, and neutron production angle θn < 0.8 mrad. The data are broadly consistent with factorization of the lepton and hadron vertices and with a simple one-pion-exchange model. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Nonvolatile Grating In An Azobenzene Polymer With Optimized Molecular Reorientation, Pengfei Wu, D.V.G.L.N. Rao, B. R. Kimball, M. Nakashima, B. S. Decristofano

Physics Faculty Publications

We demonstrated a nonvolatile grating using an azobenzene polymer film with polarized two color beams. The reorientation of azobenzene molecules can be optimized when the two color light beams are polarized perpendicularly. The stored information can be read repeatedly without volatility with the same wavelength as the writing beam.


Dansylation Of Hydroxyl And Carboxylic Acid Functional Groups, Ronald Bartzatt Feb 2001

Dansylation Of Hydroxyl And Carboxylic Acid Functional Groups, Ronald Bartzatt

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Fluorescent labeling of primary and secondary amines using dansyl chloride has been widely used in the past. Its application provides an extremely sensitive means to detect amine functional groups to amounts of less than 1 mg of material. This work describes a method for the dansylation of hydroxyl (–OH) and carboxylic acid (–COOH) functional groups. This technique is demonstrated with ethanol, gamma hydroxy butyric acid (GHB), benzoic acid, and p-chloroaniline. Sensitivity of detection for all compounds are microgram or microliter. For the compounds ethanol and GHB which are liquids at room temperature, as little as 1 ml quantity can be …


Effects Of Sterilization On Territory Fidelity And Maintenance, Pair Bonds, And Survival Rates Of Free-Ranging Coyotes, Cassity Bromley, Eric M. Gese Feb 2001

Effects Of Sterilization On Territory Fidelity And Maintenance, Pair Bonds, And Survival Rates Of Free-Ranging Coyotes, Cassity Bromley, Eric M. Gese

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Predation on sheep by coyotes (Canis latrans) is a longstanding problem for sheep producers. Current research suggests that surgical sterilization of coyotes could prove to be an effective method of reducing their depredation rates on domestic sheep by modifying their predatory behavior. However, for sterilization to be a viable management tool, the territorial and affiliative behaviors of pack members would need to remain in place. We tested whether surgically sterilized coyotes maintained pair bonds and territories in the same manner as intact coyotes. We also examined if territory fidelity and survival rates differed between sterile and intact coyotes. …
