This article presents a new version of Legend of Kondolon, the main patron of the Manden hunters,
recorded in 2016 in Nyagassolya village (Northern Guinea). We’ve done the analysis of this version and
compared it with some other well-known versions of the myth about Kondolon and Saane.
There are several variants of the myth about the founders of the hunters Kondolon and Saane.
The text presented in of the article can be defined as a legend that explains the origin of the hunters’
main fetish Kondolon. Refs 10.

dc.description.abstract

value:
There are many applications, where the number to be calculated global extrema is large, or even infinite.
These problems include, for example, some experimental design problems, the problem of solving large
systems of equations, and several others. If this is single extreme of a function of several variables, one of
the commonly used numerical algorithms is the Simulated Annealing, which is also successfully used in
high volume discrete problems (traveling salesman problem). In discrete problems known, that the method
of simulated annealing searches equal global extremes with equal probability. Continuous case still has not
been investigated. It was assumed that equal extremes to be found consistently, sharing their neighborhood
during the computation. It is not always effective method, especially in the case when multiple extrema
fills a certain region in Rn.
The results obtained in this article the general outline of the approach to the problem. We give
computational examples showing the effectiveness of the approach. It can be used to create programs,
algorithms, indicating the localization of the roots of large systems of equations. It can also be noted, that
many planning tasks regression experiments are an infinite number of solutions. Refs 4. Figs 5.

The article deals with the interpretation of the literary idea of “Inferno” — the first part of the Dante
Alighieri’s (1265-1321) Divine Comedy as realised in the exemplary series of the French engraver,
painter and master of the art books of the 19th century Gustave Dore (1832–1883). The author carries
out an image-stylistic analysis of the graphic artists solution. The main objective is to study the synthesis
of the visual and conceptual plan of the Commedia. Particular attention is paid to the specifics of the
master’s creative method and his connection with the tendencies of the romantic art of Caspar David
Friedrich (1774–1840), Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863), William Blake (1757–1827), and a group of
German and Austrian artists called the “Nazarenes”. The graphic language of Doré reveals a strong
influence from the illustrations by John Martin (1789–1854) to Milton’s (1608–1674) Paradise Lost.
The pictorial comment to the Inferno opens up new aesthetic values of the poem and represents one of
the characteristic forms of its figurative vision at the present stage. Refs 7. Figs 8.

value:
The article defines the ‘linguistic ethnic stereotype’ category in relation to the Turkish language,
discusses its 2 types, namely, language auto and heterostereotypes based on the example of fixed
expressions, clichés and idiomatic units. Ethnic stereotypes may provide a useful social psychological
perspective in which to consider intergroup relations between national groups. The present study aims
to contribute to the ethnic psycholinguistic research of Turkish language as well as to fill in the gap
that exists in this under-researched field. The purpose of this study is to investigate the links between
language auto and heterostereotypes of modern Turkish language and the state of ethnic relations
within Turkish society: their perceptions of members of various nationalities inhabiting multi‐ethnic
and multi‐religious Turkey. A more narrow aim is to provide a pilot description and explanation to the
given formulaic sentences.
Limited research on language issues is also reviewed, 61 formulas have been analyzed and our
findings indicate that auto-stereotypes are generally more positive than hetero-stereotypes. This paper
focuses on Turkish foreign language teachers’ perceptions of culture teaching. The context in which
cross-cultural contacts took place seemed to be an important variable.
The results and the methodology may be useful to multinational corporations in identifying
sources of potential conflict and misunderstanding between different cultural groups working together.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article is the third in a series of works devoted to the two-dimensional cubic homogeneous systems.
It is considered a case when a homogeneous polynomial vector in the right-hand part of the system has a
square common factor with real zeros. The set of such systems is divided into classes of linear equivalence,
in each of them on the basis of properly introduced structural and normalization principles the simplest
system is distinguished the normal form of the third order. In fact, the normal form is defined by the
coefficient matrix of the right-hand part, which is called the canonical form (CF). Each CF has its own
arrangement of nonzero elements, their specific normalization and canonical set of permissible values for
the non-normalized elements, which guarantees CF’s belonging to the selected class of equivalence. In
addition, for each CF are given: a) the conditions on the coefficients of the initial system, b) non-singular
linear substitution reducing the right-hand part of the system under these conditions to the selected CF,
c) obtained values of CF’s non-normalized elements. Refs 6.

dc.description.abstract

value:
A regular chain of N rigid bodies is under consideration. Each body has one degree of freedom: rotation
along the axis, orthogonal to the chain axis. Bodies of the chain are connected by means of elastic
inertialles Bernoulli-Euler beams. We build the analytical solution of eigenvalue problem for the chain
if N is arbitrary. The properties of eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes of the chain are compared with
analogical properties of the canonical Newton chain. It is shown that the correlation between properties
of eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes in a rigid body chain with inertialess torque connections and the
same correlation in the canonical Newton chain is principally different. The eigenmodes, corresponding
to the lowest eigenfrequencies of the rigid body chain, have maximal number of nodes. The eigenmodes,
corresponding to the highest eigenfrequencies of this chain are most smooth. The nontypical correlation,
obtained as a result of the precise solution, goes in contradiction to the states, putted by physics into
the foundation of theoretical investigations devoted to various dynamical phenomena in crystal lattices.

dc.description.abstract

value:
We consider the classical problem of nonholonomic system dynamics the problem of motion of a
rotationally symmetric ellipsoid on a fixed perfectly rough horizontal plane. It is well known that the
solution of this problem is reduced to the integration of the second order linear differential equation with
respect to r  the projection of the angular velocity of the ellipsoid onto its axis of symmetry. Using the
Kovacic algorithm we prove the nonexistence of liouvillian solutions for the corresponding second order
linear differential equation for almost all values of parameters of the problem. The paper is organized as
follows. After the introductory paragraph, in the second paragraph we briefly discuss the Kovacic algorithm
for solving the second order linear differential equation. In the third paragraph we apply this algorithm
to the problem of motion of a rotationally symmetric ellipsoid on a perfectly rough horizontal plane and
prove the nonexistence of liouvillian solutions in the considered problem. Refs 4.

value:
In this paper, we construct explicit pairing in Cartier series for formal Lorentz groups of the form:
(X + Y + XY )/(1 + c2XY ), where c is unit of the ring of integers of the local field. At the same time,
except for trivial properties such as bilinearity we prove important property  invariance, i. e. independence
from selecting a variable. These properties, with the aid of pairing above, allow us to explicitly construct
the generalized Hilbert symbol for formal Lorentz groups over rings of integers of local fields. In the first
section of the paper are the basic notation and auxiliary results on endomorphisms of formal module,
formal logarithm and exponent are constructed. In the second section, we build the main function, which
plays an important role in the construction of the pairing  an Artin Hasse function. In the last section
we define Hilbert pairing on modules of Cartier curves explicitly, also we check bilinearity of pairing
(see lemma 3.1) and variable substitution formula for Artin Hasse function (lemma 3.2). Further in this
section we prove invariance of the constructed paring regarding variable substitution X = g(Y ). Refs 15.

The authors consider the problems of criminal law to counter the spread of drug-related crimes committed

state of drug-related data using the Internet, international and foreign legislation, an assessment of the
validity of the method of criminal inducement to consumption of drugs via the Internet is analysed. It
is proposed that the composition of the declination to the consumption of drugs (Article 230 Criminal
Code of the Russian Federation) be supplemented by a qualification providing for this method of inducement to consumption of drugs. The conclusion is that using this feature will increase the preventative
potential of criminal law by expanding the scope of the crime. Refs 2. Table 1.

value:
As a structural component of the ghazal genre, radif was adopted by Afghan literature from Persian
poetry. Works by Hamid Momand, an outstanding Afghan classical poet, demonstrate that by early
18th century radif was among the typical poetic models in Pashto literature. The article represents
the classification of radifs in Hamid’s poetry collection that are grouped by parts of speech with a
particular focus on dominant verb-type radifs. The relation between rhyme and radif is also within the
scope of investigation which allows us to identify three different types of ghazal structure in Hamid
Momand’s poetry depending on the role of a particular radif in the composition: 1) monothematic
ghazals, where the radif includes the word denoting their topic; 2) polythematic ghazals that feature
homonyms or polysemantic words in the radif with every beit playing on one of the meanings of these words; 3) ghazals, where the radif includes some marginal word while the radif itself functions as a link
between beits of discordant theme or contents. A comparative analysis of ghazals with identical radifs
composed by different poets allows us to establish some literary links between Hamid Momand’s style
and that of his predecessors and followers in Pashto literature. Refs 7.

value:
The definition of pseudo-poissonian processes is given in the famous monograph of William Feller, vol. II,
chapter X. The modern development of the theory of information flows stipulates a new interest to detailed
analysis of behavior and characteristics of the pseudo-poissonian processes. Formally, pseudo-poissonian
process is a poissonian subordination of the mathematical time of an independent random sequence,
the time randomization of a random sequence. We consider the given sequence as independent identically
distributed random values with second moments. Although in this case the pseudo-poissonian processes do
not have independent increments it is possible to calculate the autocovariance function with the property of
the exponentially decreasing. Normalized sums of independent copies of such Pseudo-Poissonian processes
tend to the Ornstein Uhlenbeck process. We consider a generalization of the driving poissonian process
to the case of a random intensity. We show that under this generalization the autocovariance function of
the corresponding Pseudo-Poissonian process is the Laplace transform of the distribution of this random
intensity. We shortly discuss stochastic principles to choice of the distribution of the random intensity and
illustrate them in two detailed examples. Refs 20. Figs 2.

value:
We study the algorithmic complexity of the subproblems of simultaneous divisibility of values of linear
polynomials with non-negative coefficients in positive integers. In general, it is not known whether it is in
NP, but it was previously proved it to be in NEXPTIME.
The NP-completeness is proved for such two series of this problem, that in the first of them a number
divides a linear polynomial, and in the second case linear polynomial is a divisor of a number. Values for
the parameters were determined, for which the problem is NP-complete. For the values less than specified,
it was proved the problem to be in the class P.
We prove the NP-hardness of the particular case of the general problem of simultaneous divisibility
of values of linear polynomials in which the coefficients of the variables may only take values from the set
{1, 2} and the constant terms of linear polynomials may only take values from the set {1, 5}. The obtained
results may be useful for determining the algorithmic complexity of the general problem.
In Section 1, it is proved that the problem ∃x1 . . . xn &mj
=1(Lj (x1 . . . xn) | K) is NP-complete for
K ≥ 4 and exactly three non-zero coefficients in each linear polynomial. It is from the class P for 0 <
K < 4.
In Section 2, we studied the problem of simultaneous divisibility in positive integers from the nontrivial
interval [D,D′], of values of linear polynomials with non-negative integer coefficients by a positive
integer K: ∃x1 . . . xn ( &n i=1xi ∈ [D,D′] & &mj
=1K | Lj (x1 . . . xn)). It is proved to be NP-complete for
K ≥ 3. If the parameter of the problem is the number of non-zero coefficients in linear polynomials, the
problem is NP-complete for only two non-zero coefficients. In the case of exactly one non-zero coefficient,
the problem is from the class P.
In Section 3, it is proved NP-hardness of ∃x1 . . . xn &mj
=1(Lj (x1 . . . xn) | L′
j (x1 . . . xn)), the problem
of simultaneous divisibility of the values of linear polynomials on the values of the linear polynomials with
the coefficients of the variables from {1, 2} and constant terms from {1, 5}. Refs 13.

In the current article the problem of constructing analytically experimental designs, optimal according

results of approximation theory can be utilized to achieve explicit formulas describing the behavior of
support points and weights of T-optimal designs for different fixed prior parameter values. An example
of a practical problem with rational and polynomial regression models is provided. Then the numerical
calculation of the experimental designs, optimal according to the robust analogs of T-criterion, for the
models in the example is briefly discussed. Refs 10. Fig. 1. Tables 3.

of deformation and damage in polymer materials are occured. These processes lead to destructive effects
and are accompanied by chemical reactions, which increase the structure changes and properties of the
considered materials. Accordingly, it is possible to distinguish two types of fracture of polymeric materials
during long-term mechanical and thermal effects. The first type (mechanical) is implemented in the
condition of active loading, and in experiments on creep at moderate temperatures. The second type of
fracture (chemical) is associated with the accumulation of structural damage in the long process of aging in
the absence of external stress (static fatigue). The modified version of Maxwell’s equation and the equation
for the damage parameter are formulated. The analytical solutions for the creep and stress relaxation are
derived. Unlike Maxwell formula, the stress relaxation ratio has not zero asymptote. To describe the creep
deformation and fracture of a compressible elastic-viscous medium the Boltzmann Volterra equation is
used. An analytical solution for the continuity parameter and the long-term strength criterion is received.
The theoretical curves for the continuity parameter and the long-term strength criterion are plotted.
Quantitative and for creep curves qualitative agreement with the corresponding experimental curves are
observed. Refs 12. Figs 6.

The equilibrium composition and physical and chemical characteristics changes of the air are investigated
when his temperature increase. The distribution functions which correspond to entropy maximum are
used for a description of equilibrium states of the air mixtures. It allows us to avoid the solution of a mass

The influence of initial air density on the dependencies of the mixture components concentrations, the

dc.description.abstract

value:
The problem of the stability loss of an infinite plate with a circular insert with another material exposed to
uniaxial tension is considered. The influence of elastic modulus of the insert to the value of the critical load
is defined. For finding the minimum eigenvalue corresponds to the first critical load is applied variational
principle.
The calculations are performed in the programm “Maple” and compared with the results obtained
by the method of finite elements in ANSYS.
The calculations show that the loss of stability in the case when the inclusion softer than the plate,
and when the inclusion more firm than plate occurs in different forms, and at the approach of the Young’s
modulus of the inclusion to the Young’s modulus of the plate critical load essentially increases. In the case
of the coincidence of elastic modulus of the plate and inclusion stability loss is impossible. Refs 10. Figs 5.

We consider diffeomorphism of three-dimensional space with a hyperbolic fixed point at the origin and
nontransversal homoclinic point to it. It is follows from the works of Sh. Newhouse, L. P. Shil’nikov,
B. F. Ivanov and others that under certain conditions a neighborhood of the homoclinic point contains a
countable set of stable periodic points, but at least one of the characteristic exponents at these points
tends to zero with increasing period. Earlier, in the author’s work was considered a three-dimensional
diffeomorphism and it was assumed that all the eigenvalues of the Jacobi matrix at the origin are real.
It was shown that for a certain type of tangency of the stable and unstable manifolds, a neighborhood
homoclinic point contains a countable set of stable periodic points with characteristic exponents bounded
away from zero. In the present paper we consider the diffeomorphism a three-dimensional space and it is
assumed that the Jacobi matrix at the origin has complex eigenvalues. It is shown that in this case the
neighborhood nontransversal homoclinic point can contain an infinite number of stable periodic points
with characteristic exponents bounded away from zero. Refs 8.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article presents a modern approach to creating a distributed program complex based on
mass-parallel technology for pre- and postprocessing of SAR images. The unique features of
the system is the ability to work in real time mode with huge amounts of streaming data
and applying existing algorithms that are not used for distributed processing on multiple
nodes without changing the algorithms’ implementation. A comparison has been made of
distributed processing technologies based on which we have selected Apache Spark. The ability
to organise automatic processing of input SAR images as a sequence of operations which should
be performed based on defined conditions is demonstrated. The results of processing store in
the system as fault tolerant distributed collections of data (RDD-Resilient Distributed Data),
which allows getting and saving the intermediate results in the distributed file system HDFS as
and when new space images became available and processed by the sequence of algorithms. This
article described the implementation for the specific tasks of SAR data processing based on the
suggested approach is described (phase estimation, coregistration, interferogram creation and
phase unwrapping with region growing method). A scheme of the phase unwrapping algorithm
with the ability to use GPU and NVIDIA CUDA technology is presented. An adaptation of the
algorithm for the mass-parallel systems is shown. The algorithm implementation focused on
processing pair of SAR images on one node. Performance growth is achieved by simultaneous
processing multiple images whose number is equal to cluster nodes count. An example of
methods implementation for working with streaming binary data (BinaryRecordStream) which
perform monitoring of new SAR data in distributed file system HDFS and readingthis data as
binary files with fixed bytes size is shown. A directory and size of one record are used as the input
parameters. The results of testing developed algorithms on demonstration cluster is presented. A
possibility of getting up to eight times better processing speed using eight nodes in a cluster for
the same images count in comparison with sequential processing on one node is shown. Results
of testing provide the ability to improve the performance of presented algorithms without any
changes in implementation and this in turn justifies the utility of applying distributed approach
for SAR data processing. Refs 26. Figs 4. Tables 3.

The article is devoted to several aspects of Russian-American culture. The purpose of research is to
identify opportunities for intercultural communication in the context of transforming the world and
trace the formation of a new mentality based on the principles of tolerance and experiencing one
united history.
The relevance of the study is determined by an attempt to create a general conception of contemporary
art of the younger generation. The methods of interdisciplinary analysis are utilized which are
capable of identifying areas of possible cooperation between Russian and American culture. The paths
of development of modern science are closely related with the possibility to conduct a Russian-American
scientific dialogue.
Russian and American cultures conceptualize modernity, society, the individual and his place in
the world differently. At the intersection of these differences appears something new that can enrich
each of the cultures under examination.
Based on case studies of fine art and literature, the possible connection between methods and
analyses of artwork are illustrated that serve to emphasize the reflection on cultural experiences and
novation in the works of the older and younger generation. Refs 20.

value:
The problem of optimal boundary control of evolutionary systems with constant delay and
distributed parameters on the graph. System status is determined by a weak solution of the
boundary value problem for a parabolic equation in the space of Sobolev type whose elements
are functions satisfying the conditions in a certain way matching all the internal nodes of the graph. The control action on the system and monitoring its state is made in the boundary nodes
of the graph on the entire time interval. The dual status of the system is defined as a weak
solution of the boundary value problem with delay and distributed parameters on the graph
with the final condition. The conditions of weak unique solvability of the original and the dual
challenges of weak continuous dependence of solutions on initial data. We present necessary
and sufficient conditions for the existence of optimal control using the dual system state solved
the problem of optimal control synthesis for the case of absence of restrictions on the control
action and an analogue-known finite-dimensional case the Kalman results. The method used
is applicable to many optimization problems of differential systems whose state is determined
by weak solutions of evolution equations on networks. These results are fundamental in the
study of problems of boundary control the dynamics of laminar flows of multiphase media.
All techniques and methods can be used for the numerical solution of optimal control problem
under consideration. Refs 20.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Model predictive control (MPC) is a well-known and widely used control algorithm. The
problem of real-time MPC implementation for complex systems is of particular practical interest
due to the complexity of the associated optimization problem which is generally intractable in
real time. The paper presented deals with this issue making use of the famous dynamical
programming idea and reducing the dimensionality of the original optimization problem. The
outline of the paper is as follows. The MPC problem is considered for a nonlinear discrete-time
system with state and control constraint sets and a quadratic cost functional. The assumptions
worth noting are, firstly, the Lipschitz continuity of the right hand side of the system and,
secondly, continuity in some sense of the admissible control set with respect to the current
state of the system. Employing these properties we are able to prove the Lipschitz continuity
of the optimal cost value as a function of the initial state of the system. This result provides
us with the opportunity to approximate the minimal value of the last several summands of the
cost functional as a function of the intermediate system state by means of precalculating it for
a set of state values before the controller is launched. The summands mentioned may be then
excluded from the optimization reducing the dimensionality of the problem. The results are followed by a discussion of their limitations and an example of application. It is shown that the
simpler the resulting problem, the less smooth it becomes, thus making it necessary to use more
data points for the approximation. Another observation is that the smoothness of the problem
decreasing far from the set point. The theorems proven in the paper give the reasoning behind
these facts but the means of dealing with them are due to further research. Refs 18. Figs 2.

value:
DNA solutions in the presence of Ca2+, Mn2+ and Cu2+ ions were studied using FTIRspectroscopy

was proposed. The approach is based on decomposition of complex bands in the region of carbonyl
vibrations. It was shown that ions can interact with nitrogenous bases. It was also shown
that the interaction of Ca2+ and Mn2+ ions occurs via water molecules, while Cu2+ ions bind
the bases directly. The significant influence of Ca2+, Mn2+ and Cu2+ ions on the conformational
stability of the DNA double helix has been demonstrated. It was shown that Ca2+ and Mn2+
ions stabilize the DNA structure while Cu2+ ions serve to reduce its thermodynamic stability.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article discusses the behavior of trading companies when the demand function for a product
is a piecewise linear function with some pre-defined level of saturation. As a result of special
marketing research the demand function is determined. It is assumed that the following scheme
is used. The ordered product is divided into two parts. The first batch will arrive immediately
and will be sold within a certain period of time up to T1. The second batch of goods will be
delivered only at time T and this batch will be sold with reduction in price as follows from
deficit of the goods. The consideration of a such a scheme for the sale stems from the fact that,
first, commercial enterprises have limited capacity and can not accommodate the entire volume
of products ordered, and secondly, the manufacturer may not offer the entire ordered quantity
at the initial time. An important feature of this problem is selection of parameters which
are subsequently optimized. For trading firms the moment time T1 has very high importance
because trading companies have sold the first batch and received money. After this moment the
trading firms will pay to the manufacturers, and manufacturers can to continue the activities.
The time moment T1 is important for trading firms, as it will allow them to fulfill various
financial obligations associated with the payment of loans and other expenses. Time T is also
important, so this will mean the successful completion in full of selling all these goods. Refs 16.

value:
In this paper we study vibrational relaxation of CO molecules with excited electronic states. We consider
three electronic terms and account for V V exchanges of vibrational energy within each electronic term,
V T transitions of vibrational energy into translational and V E exchange of vibrational energy between
electronic terms. The initial vibrational state of the gas is strongly non-equilibrium. The effect of V E
exchange on the vibrational relaxation of CO molecules is evaluated for different kinds of initial vibrational
distributions, in particular, the Treanor and Gordiets ones generalized for gases with electronically excited
states. The set of equations of state-to-state vibrational kinetics coupled to the gas-dynamic equations
is solved numerically in the zero-order approximation of the Chapman-Enskog method for the case of
spatially homogeneous relaxation. The following results were obtained: neglecting V E exchanges leads to
an incorrect assessment of the numerical density for each electronic level, however, the error is small for
the ground electronic state. It is shown that V E exchanges qualitatively affect the time dependence of the
vibrational temperature. Refs 17. Figs 5.

value:
The problem of allocating the capacity of a road network is considered. The network is presented
by a digraph with one source—sink pair and n alternative (not intersecting) routes. To arrive at
the optimal strategy for a road network’s capacity allocation, a bi-level optimization program
is formulated. The upper level is a modeling decision made by the city administration entrusted
with making constructive changes to the road network. The administration seeks to minimize the overall travel time on the network. The lower level is modeling the behavior of network’s
users, who react to any constructive changes. Each driver tends to minimize his/her own travel
time from origin to destination. The optimal solution is obtained explicitly for the studied
network. A methodological tool for decision-making support in road network sphere is then
developed. Refs 8. Fig. 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The problem of the reliability and reproducibility of current-voltage characteristics measuring was
considered. The electrolytic current-voltage characteristics measured in NaCl and KCl solutions
are submitted in this work. These substances were chosen to obtain a symmetrical form of the
dependence of the current on the voltage. In the experiment electrodes with the highly varying
areas were used. It was demonstrated that at measurements in the direct electric current mode
due to electrochemical processes on the electrodes, current amplitude continuously decreases. To
reduce the influence of secondary processes, the pulse and periodic scheme of measurements were
offered. The duration of the measuring pulse was 8 μs. The repetition rate was 1 kHz. The
implementation of a pulse measurement technique I(U) allows to receive the reproducible results both in solutions of chemically pure substances and in complex mixes. The offered method of
measurement allows to get the current-voltage characteristics without application of large-sized
installations containing hydrargyrum. Refs 12. Figs 5.

Planetary motion during stellar approaches toward the Solar System is examined in the framework of
the three-dimensional restricted three-body problem. The exact expression of the force function without
a series expansion is used. Regions of possible motion of a planet are determined. Surfaces of minimal
energy, which are generalizations of surfaces of zero velocity, are plotted. Singular (exceptional) points of
these surfaces are determined, and their type and Lyapunov stability are ascertained. The results thus
obtained are shown in the form of figures and tables. Refs 5. Figs 2. Table 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The paper presented here is another attempt made to suggest a general classification of separation
methods. By unique classification criteria, which are phase transformations and interfacial transfers, all separation methods of homogenous mixtures of substances are divided into five
groups: methods that are based on the formation of new phases by substances to be separated;
methods that are based on differences in the interphase distribution processes, chromatographic
methods being singled out as a separate group; membrane methods that are based on induced
transfers of substances from one phase into another one across a third phase, which separates the
two; separation methods within a single phase that are based on velocity and direction differences
in spatial displacement of particles of substances to be separated within one fluid phase under
the action of various fields; combined methods that are based on different combinations of classification
criteria for the previous groups above. Descriptions of each group of separation methods
include their intragroup classification and information on the most important and the least known
of them. These descriptions are in the form of reviews of fundamental — and most interesting, in
the author’s opinion, publications, regardless of the time they appeared. An exception to this are
the well-known classical methods of the 1st group, for which all the necessary information can be
found in university textbooks. Refs 86. Figs 1. Tables 9.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Open public spaces, to an extent no less than the city’s architectural developments, shape its appearance.
The system of open spaces in the center of St. Petersburg reached its ultimate level of development
during the first third of the 19th century. The article highlights the key role of the squares which
had been formed by that time around the Admiralty. The article emphasizes that they, as a transitional
link from “the main street of the city — the Neva” to the public spaces of the avenues and streets,
served as “visual bridges” between the landmark buildings of the Admiralty side and Vasilievsky Island, and then of the Petrograd side. It shows large arrays of flourishing soft-scapes that arose in
the area in the second half of 19th century and at the beginning of 20th century, and their impact on
visual perception of the long-standing architectural ensembles. It also proved that the above strongly
contributed to the disintegration of the unique system of open spaces in the center of St. Petersburg.
Proposals are made for the gradual transformation of the “transparency” of the panoramic views of the
city through conversion of the existing softscapes by means of landscape architecture. Refs 27. Figs 14.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article intends to provide an initial analysis of the controversial issues regarding the constitutionality
of bail-in and other resolution measures provided by Directive 2014/59/EU, as implemented by
the Italian legislative decree No. 180 of November 16, 2015. According to the new rules, the Bank of
Italy, which is also the competent supervisory authority, may mandate creditors to participate and
contribute to the bank’s refinancing in cases of financial distress or of possible collapse, through forced
debt conversions or debt write-downs (the so called “bail-in”). The feasibility of this regulatory tool
gives rise to numerous doubts and concerns with regards to its compliance with constitutional principles.
In particular, with those principles underlying the right to property and the defense of patrimonial
rights under Private Law, for the significant compression that it could entail with respect to
the rights of shareholders and creditors of financial institutions in distress. Surely, the public interest
in the proper operation of the banking sector and the functioning of financial markets represents the
necessary assumption underlying all legislative interventions on bank recovery systems. However, the
tendency is that of expanding their reach beyond control, as long as equal and uniform treatment is
granted to those pertaining to the same category of investors. To the contrary, the Private Law of banking
institutions and financial markets requires a continuous and mutual balancing of constitutional
values and principles, without any pretense of absoluteness, in order to reconcile the need to safeguard
investor rights and private property within the protection of the banking and financial sector. Refs 25.

and fully-manifested plans and proposals that sought to create unique, vertical dominants of
global significance. These include, namely, “Tatlin’s Tower” (1919) and the “Monument to V. I. Lenin”
(1924). Both monuments were proposed to be located in Holy Trinity Square in Petrograd. Features
of project-proposals for these objects are studied and there are revealed some surprising regularities
of the formulation of these revolutionary ideas in line with imperial St. Petersburg’s traditions of town
planning, thereby designating the uniqueness of the Petrograd architectural avant-garde as a successor
(in many respects) to the imperial St. Petersburg town-planning school. Refs 52. Figs 9.

dc.description.abstract

value:
In this paper we describe the nature of electo-optical phenomena observed in colloid systems,
and the peculiarities of effects compared to electro-optics of homogenous media are discussed.
Among the different types of optical phenomena induced in colloids by electric fields we here
emphasize birefringence, dichroism, electric light scattering (alteration of intensity of scattered
light caused by particle orientation in electric field) and anisotropy of light scattering (difference
of light intensity scattered parallel and orthogonal to the applied external electric field). The
brightest electro-optical effects in colloids with particle size comparable to light wave length are
anisotropy of light scattering and conservative dichroism. The electro-optical techniques that have
been developed so far are also discussed in this paper. Special attention is paid to the techniques
based on the study of dichroism caused by electric fields of different types which were developed
by the Russian school of electro-optics. The results of the study of such particle characteristics
as electric polarizability, specific surface conductivity, permanent dipole moment and particle
size are presented. The results of experimental verification of the theory of double electric layer
polarizability of the interface are presented. Refs 94. Figs 2. Tables 1.

allows showing how evaluation is transferred from one group to another and how generalisation from
one marginal part is used to tarnish the whole group. It is also shown how destereotyping is used as
defense and how defense strategies are turned into attack strategies. Analysis of global strategies, used
as coordination of local strategies of individual commenters, gives evidence of group identity building
through discursive use of stereotypes. Refs 31.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article discusses genesis and functioning of the Albanian idiom in the multilingual microregion of
Gorana (Montenegrin Littoral), which is of great interest from the perspective of the study of Slavic-
Albanian linguistic and cultural interaction in the Western Balkans.
The introductory part contains anthropogeographic and sociolingistic information about the Serbo-
Croatian-speaking community of Mrkovići and Gorana, and a brief description of the northwestern
Gheg subdialect of the Albanian language. Further paragraphs investigate the case of the village
Velja Gorana, concentrating on the Albanian speech of the local bilinguals and the speech of Albanian
women who came to the Velja Gorana community from different border areas of Albania, Montenegrin
Littoral and Krajina. In order to study the dialect differentiation and degree of accommodation
between dialects (a) in the speech of Albanian women and (b) in the speech of the local bilinguals,
as well as to find contact-induced features in phonetics and phonology, we analyse authentic dialect material using comparative and descriptive methods common for comparative linguistics, dialectology,
and the Balkan studies.
Based on the results of the analysis, the Albanian speech of Gorana is described as a heterogeneous
idiom, where dialect differentiation remains intact without a degree of mixing or accommodation, and
the intensity of contact-induced language change varies at the level of individual speakers. Refs 31.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The author analyses autobiographical prose of the poet of the Silver Age M. A. Voloshin (1877–1932) in
the context of Plato’s philosophy and mythology. The subject of the analysis is topology of writer’s spiritual
wandering and memory phenomenology. The materials of the study are memoirs and diary prose
of the 1900s, series of autobiographical articles, sketches and essays of the 1900–1910s, lectures and
incomplete sketches united by the subjects of travel, spiritual wandering and self-discovery. It turns
out that cosmology, mythology and the doctrine about Plato’s memory had impact on formation of
the Voloshin’s creative principles. Topos is considered as a memory place that becomes a sacred space
according to Plato’s dialogues. Motives of secular and sacred space, plots of journey, wandering in a
labyrinth, and an exit from darkness are analysed. Toposes that became symbolical space of memory for Voloshin are allocated. These are Munich (the city of museums and beer), Budapest (the labyrinth
city and the museum city), St. Petersburg (the museum city and the cemetery city), Rome (the labyrinth
city, the museum city and the artistic city), Paris (the museum city, the labyrinth city, the theatre
city, the carnival city, the artistic city and the brothel city). Plato’s traditions and aesthetic utopianism
of the Silver Age created a concept of the “Ideal Topos”. It is the city of museums and the artistic city
where the gothic temple has an important role. Topos is analysed as consciousness chronotope when
space is supplemented with historical time. In conclusion it is show that Antique, Christian, natural
and cosmic toposes became dominating for Voloshin’s concepts and creativity; they are opposed to the
modern cities that have apocalyptic origin. Gothic space that symbolises topos of the Christian culture
is the most important for the author. Refs 39.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article attempts to provide an explanation of Lord Byron’s disapproval of John Murray’s cruel treatment
of Lady Morgan, which was clearly expressed in the poet’s letter of February 20, 1818. Accusing
the famous publisher of his ungentlemanly callousness, Byron alluded to a harsh review of “France” (1817) by Lady Morgan in the “Quarterly review” launched by Murray in 1809 and famous for its
aggressive critical essays on the most celebrated authors of the early 19th century. Lady Morgan was
known as an author of some essays, poems and a couple of novels but her literary achievements were
much more modest than those of either P. B. Shelley or M. Shelley or other first-magnitude authors
severely criticized in the “Quarterly review”, so the anonymous reviewer’s partial attention to her work
on France after the Bourbon Restoration meant that the book contained something more than a petticoat
gossip collection. The analysis of “France” by Lady Morgan and its perception by British and
French critics makes it fair to assume the pro-Irish trendiness of the text, namely an attempt to compare
and contrast the life of French and Irish peasants, was the major cause for the attack on the author
and her book in Britain. Byron shared Lady Morgan’s concern about the situation in Ireland and remained
interested in the Irish question after the Act of Union 1800 even after the curtain had fallen on
his official political career, so it is reasonable to suppose that his defence of the author of “France” came
out from their common political ground as well as from the poet’s personal negative experience of being
zoilised for his “Hours of Idleness” in the “Edinburgh review” a decade earlier. Refs 19.

unite Americans by appealing to common spiritual and moral values that are passed down from one
generation to another. Barack Obama’s public speeches are replete with references to the speeches
of his political predecessors, political opponents, American people, historical documents, slogans as
well as literature and films. The speeches give information not only about common traditions in the
presidential discourse upheld by Barack Obama, but also about typical features of his individual style

dc.description.abstract

value:
The fact that habitual actions are much more often expressed by imperfective verbs in Russian than in
Polish and in Polish much often than in Czech is usually explained by invoking temporal definiteness
as the semantic prototype of the perfective aspect in the East-Slavic zone and totality as the semantic
prototype of the perfective in the West Slavic zone. However, Polish legal texts and codices as well as
proverbs are much often formed with imperfective verbs, whereas Russian codices and proverbs use
perfective verbs in habitual-pair construction or exemplifying meaning (when Russian uses a verbal
noun instead of personal verb forms the perfective aspect is expressed in a dependent participle form).
These differences in the use of aspect require a re-analysis of prototype semantic features of the aspect
in the West-Slavic, East-Slavic and transitional zones of the Slavic languages. Refs 8. Table 1.

Technology & Innovation (STI) forecasting research. Within the framework of professional procedures
in forecasting research, the problem of ensuring the required quality of expert professionals for
each area of study has arisen. Qualitative examination can be achieved through optimal organization
of the work of expert groups and the creation of expert panels with a high level of professional competence in a subject area. However, under a limited number of competent professionals within a specific
subject area, it is crucial to use special qualification criteria for the selection of experts based on ex
ante assessment. Besides, application of individual methods of motivation helps to improve the quality
of technological forecasts. In the article the authors offer their own methods of ex ante assessment of
expert’s competence. Special attention is also paid to the most common methods of motivating expert
professionals engaged in forecasting research in the science and technology areas. Refs 25. Figs 2.

value:
The purpose of this essay is to examine Aristotle’s relation to Plato in terms of their understanding
of knowledge. Evolution of the philosophical system of Aristotle is interpreted as a transition from
technique of polysubjective speech activity (“Topica”) to monosubjective conception of knowledge
as a state of existential plenitude (“Analytics”, “De anima”, “Metaphysics”). The essay notes that the
second half of the XX century updated interest to the Aristotle’s “Topica”. This interest, in turn, has allowed
to reveal new aspects of Aristotle’s philosophical development, which to some extent was caused
by discussions of the late Academy and by the peculiarities of the discourse of Plato’s school, where
a problem of construction of definition took up one of the central places. Problem of definition was
included in the problem of completeness of knowledge, and that, in turn, was conjugated with the existential
and metaphysical issues. A study of Aristotle’s interpretations of knowledge set critical rethinking
about the possibility to translate the concept of “ἐπιστήμη” as “science”. The concept of science
refers primarily to the category of activity or field of objective information, while Aristotle supposed,
probably, essential-existential context for the concept of “ἐπιστήμη”. This brings Aristotle and Plato
together, at least in that aspect, how the problem of knowledge is considered in the dialogue “Theaetetus”, where the knowledge is regarded as a transformative moment. It is transformativeness, its means
and methods, provides the basis for specific field of historical and philosophical reconstruction. This
essay is based on general works (B. Jaeger, P. Hadot, S. S. Avernitsev, V. V. Bibikhin, Yu.A. Shichalin et
al.) and special monographs and comparative studies (V. S. Sementsov, J. Taber, O. Primavesi, P. Slomkovski,
A. Bradshaw et al.). Refs. 24.
