Advances in the Theory of Varieties of Semigroups
Edmond W. H. Lee
This monograph thoroughly explores the development of the theory of varieties of semigroups and of two related algebras: involution semigroups and monoids. Through this in-depth analysis, readers will attain a deeper understanding of the differences between these three types of varieties, which may otherwise seem counterintuitive. New results with detailed proofs are also presented that answer previously unsolved fundamental problems. Featuring both a comprehensive overview as well as highlighting the author’s own significant contributions to the area, this book will help establish this subfield as a matter of timely interest. Advances in the Theory of Varieties of Semigroups will appeal to researchers in universal algebra and will be particularly valuable for specialists in semigroups.

Hankel Tournaments and Special Oriented Graphs
Richard Brualdi and Lei Cao
[Chapter Abstract]
A Hankel tournament T of order n (an n × n Hankel tournament matrix T = [tij]) is a tournament such that i → j an edge implies (n + 1 − j) → (n + 1 − i) is also an edge (tij = tn+1−j,n+1−i) for all i and j. Hankel tournament matrices are (0, 1)-matrices which are combinatorially antisymmetric about the main diagonal and symmetric about the Hankel diagonal (the antidiagonal). Locally transitive tournaments are tournaments such that the in-neighborhood and the out-neighborhood of each vertex are transitive. Tournaments form a special class of oriented graphs. The score vectors of Hankel tournaments and of locally transitive tournaments have been characterized where each score vector of a locally transitive tournament is also a score vector of a Hankel tournament. In this paper we continue investigations into Hankel tournaments and locally transitive tournaments. We investigate Hankel cycles in Hankel tournaments and show in particular that a strongly connected Hankel tournament contains a Hankel Hamilton cycle and, in fact, is Hankel “even-pancyclic” or Hankel “odd-pancyclic.” We show that a Hankel score vector can be achieved by a Hankel “half-transitive” tournament, extending the corresponding result for score vectors of tournaments. We also consider some results on oriented graphs and the question of attainability of prescribed degrees by oriented graphs. Finally, we extend some results on 2-tournaments to Hankel 2-tournaments. In some instances we rely on the reader to extend arguments already in the literature. We illustrate our investigations with many examples.

The resistance nodulation cell division (RND) family of proteins are inner membrane transporters that associate with periplasmic adaptor proteins and outer membrane porins to affect substrate transport from the cytosol and periplasm in Gram-negative bacteria. Various structurally diverse compounds are substrates of RND transporters. Along with their notable role in antibiotic resistance, these transporters are essential for niche colonization, quorum sensing, and virulence as well as for the removal of fatty acids and bile salts. As such, RNDs are an attractive target for antimicrobial development. However, while enhancing the utility of antibiotics with an RND inhibitor is an appealing concept, only a small core of chemotypes has been identified as efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs). Thus, our key objective is the development and validation of an efflux profiling and discovery strategy for RND model systems. Here we describe a flow cytometric dye accumulation assay that uses fluorescein diacetate (FDA) to interrogate the model Gram-negative pathogens Escherichia coli, Franscisella tularensis, and Burkholderia pseudomallei. Fluorochrome retention is increased in the presence of known efflux inhibitors and in RND deletion strains. The assay can be used in a high-throughput format to evaluate efflux of dye-substrate candidates and to screen chemical libraries for novel EPIs. Triaged compounds that inhibit efflux in pathogenic strains are tested for growth inhibition and antibiotic potentiation using microdilution culture plates in a select agent Biosafety Level-3 (BSL3) environment. This combined approach demonstrates the utility of flow cytometric analysis for efflux activity and provides a useful platform in which to characterize efflux in pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria. Screening small molecule libraries for novel EPI candidates offers the potential for the discovery of new classes of antibacterial compounds.

Architecture of Approximate Deconvolution Models of Turbulence
A. Labovschii, W. Layton, C. Manica, M. Neda, L. Rebholz, Iuliana Stanculescu, and C. Trenchea
This report presents the mathematical foundation of approximate deconvolution LES models together with the model phenomenology downstream of the theory. This mathematical foundation now begins to be complete for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. It is built upon averaging, deconvolving and addressing closure so as to obtain the physically correct energy and helicity balances in the LES model. We show how this is determined and how correct energy balance implies correct prediction of turbulent statistics. Interestingly, the approach is simple and thus gives a road map to develop models for more complex turbulent flows. We illustrate this herein for the case of MHD turbulence.
