Sylvester: Ushering In The Modern Era Of Research On Odd Perfect Numbers, Steven Gimbel, John Jaroma Oct 2003

Sylvester: Ushering In The Modern Era Of Research On Odd Perfect Numbers, Steven Gimbel, John Jaroma

Philosophy Faculty Publications

In 1888, James Joseph Sylvester (1814-1897) published a series of papers that he hoped would pave the way for a general proof of the nonexistence of an odd perfect number (OPN). Seemingly unaware that more than fifty years earlier Benjamin Peirce had proved that an odd perfect number must have at least four distinct prime divisors, Sylvester began his fundamental assault on the problem by establishing the same result. Later that same year, he strengthened his conclusion to five. These findings would help to mark the beginning of the modern era of research on odd perfect numbers. Sylvester's bound stood …


Electrochemical Preparation Of Chitosan/Hydroxyapatite Composite Coatings On Titanium Substrates, Jody G. Redepenning, Guhanand Venkataraman, Jun Chen, Nathan Stafford Oct 2003

Electrochemical Preparation Of Chitosan/Hydroxyapatite Composite Coatings On Titanium Substrates, Jody G. Redepenning, Guhanand Venkataraman, Jun Chen, Nathan Stafford

Jody Redepenning Publications

Composite coatings containing brushite (CaHPO4 • 2H2O) and chitosan were prepared by electrochemical deposition. The brushite/chitosan composites were converted to hydroxyapatite/chitosan composites in aqueous solutions of sodium hydroxide. The coatings ranged from 1 to 15% chitosan by weight. Qualitative assessment of the coatings showed adhesion signifi cantly improved over that observed for electrodeposited coatings of pure HA.

Hygroscopic Growth Of Ammonium Sulfate/Dicarboxylic Acids, Matthew E. Wise, Jason D. Surratt, Daniel B. Curtis, John E. Shilling, Margaret A. Tolbert Oct 2003

Hygroscopic Growth Of Ammonium Sulfate/Dicarboxylic Acids, Matthew E. Wise, Jason D. Surratt, Daniel B. Curtis, John E. Shilling, Margaret A. Tolbert

CUP Faculty Research

Recent studies have shown that tropospheric sulfate aerosols commonly contain 50% by mass organic species. The influence of these organics on the chemical and physical properties of sulfate aerosols is not fully established. We have measured the water activity of pure dicarboxylic acids and eutonic mixtures of ammonium sulfate/dicarboxylic acids at 25°C and have calculated van't Hoff factors for each individual system. We have also used the vapor pressure data to determine the hygroscopic growth curves for pure dicarboxylic acids and eutonic mixtures and provide power law fits to the data. For the systems studied we find that the presence …

Merging Libraries – The Impact On Government Publications – The San Jose State University Experience, Susan Kendall Oct 2003

Merging Libraries – The Impact On Government Publications – The San Jose State University Experience, Susan Kendall

Faculty and Staff Publications

My talk today is specifically related to merging government publications department with reference services at San Jose State. Two compelling factors caused the merger. The first was a report from the university administration for all units, including academic ones, to streamline their operations. The second was the announced merger of the university library with the public library of San Jose. My talk will focus on the joining of the two libraries and give the background that led up to this merger, and then talk about what has happened to government publications. Finally, I have added a bibliography on merged government …

Faculty Publications

A comprehensive analysis of the human sex chromosomes was undertaken to assess Alu-associated human genomic diversity and to identify novel Alu insertion polymorphisms for the study of human evolution. Three hundred forty-five recently integrated Alu elements from eight different Alu subfamilies were identified on the X and Y chromosomes, 225 of which were selected and analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). From a total of 225 elements analyzed, 16 were found to be polymorphic on the X chromosome and one on the Y chromosome. In line with previous research using other classes of genetic markers, our results indicate reduced Alu-associated …
