昆曲集曲正曲化考论

脱胎于原调的集曲在逐渐定型中发展成为一种新的原调,即集曲正曲化现象。共分五种情况:有些集曲出现时间较早,后世曲家已不知为集曲;因曲牌名称或板式不合,判断集曲不合格律,应归正曲;曲家对集曲所集何调争论不休,直作正曲看;因沿用已久,且美韵动听的集曲已经原曲化;引子类集曲皆归正曲。从集曲正曲化可以看出集曲已为曲家有意识、有目的地使用,其地位得到曲家承认。而作为以乐就词的方式,集曲最直接的作用就是调和词乐矛盾,使作品达至文乐双美的艺术效果。

Vascular endothelial growth factor attenuates hepatic sinusoidal capillarization in thioacetamide-induced cirrhotic rats

AIM: To investigate the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) transfection on hepatic sinusoidal capillarization. METHODS: Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)/ VEGF transfection was confirmed by immunofluorescence microscopy and immunohistoche-mistry both in primary hepatocytes and in normal liver. Cirrhotic rats were generated by thioacetamide (TAA) administration and then divided into a treatment group, which received injections of 400 μg of plasmid DNA encoding an EGFP- VEGF fusion protein, and a blank group, which received an equal amount of normal saline through the portal vein. The portal vein pressure was measured in the normal and cirrhotic state, in treated and blank groups. The average number of fenestrae per hepatic sinusoid was determined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), while the relative abundance of VEGF transcripts was examined by Gene array. RESULTS: Green fluorescent protein was observed in the cytoplasms of liver cells under immunofluorescence microscopy 24 h after transfection with EGFP/VEGF plasmid in vitro. Staining with polyclonal antibodies against VEGF illustrated that hepatocytes expressedimmunodetectable VEGF both in vitro and in vitro. There were significant differences in the number of fenestrae and portal vein pressures between normal and cirrhotic rats (7.40 ± 1.71 vs 2.30 ± 1.16 and 9.32 ± 0.85 cmH2O vs 17.92 ± 0.90 cmH2O, P < 0.01), between cirrhotic and treated rats (2.30 ± 1.16 cmH2O vs 4.60 ± 1.65 and 17.92 ± 0.90 cmH2O vs 15.52 ± 0.93 cmH2O, P < 0.05) and between the treatment group and the blank group (4.60 ± 1.65 cmH2O vs 2.10 ± 1.10 cmH2O and 15.52 ± 0.93 cmH2O vs 17.26 ± 1.80 cmH2O, P < 0.05). Gene- array analysis revealed that the relative abundance of transcripts of VEGF family members decreased in the cirrhotic state and increased after transfection. CONCLUSION: Injection of a plasmid encoding VEGF through the portal vein is an effective method to induce the formation of fenestrae and decrease portal vein pressure in cirrhotic rats. Therefore, it may be a good choice for treating hepatic cirrhosis and portal hypertension.

Application of well log normalization in coalfield seismic inversion

During the process of coal prospecting and exploration, different measurement time, different logging instruments and series can lead to systematic errors in well logs. Accordingly, all logging curves need to be normalized in the mining area. By studying well-logging normalization methods, and focusing on the characteristics of the coalfield, the frequency histogram method was used in accordance with the condition of the Guqiao Coal Mine. In this way, the density and sonic velocity at marker bed in the non-key well were made to close to those in the key well, and were eventually equal. Well log normalization was completed when this method was applied to the entire logging curves. The results show that the scales of logging data were unified by normalizing coal logging curves, and the logging data were consistent with wave impedance inversion data. A satisfactory inversion effect was obtained.

Shape modification of Bézier curves by constrained optimization

The Bézier curve is one of the most commonly used parametric curves in CAGD and Computer Graphics and has many good properties for shape design. Developing more convenient techniques for designing and modifying Bézier curve is an im- portant problem, and is also an important research issue in CAD/CAM and NC technology fields. This work investigates the optimal shape modification of Bézier curves by geometric constraints. This paper presents a new method by constrained optimi- zation based on changing the control points of the curves. By this method, the authors modify control points of the original Bézier curves to satisfy the given constraints and modify the shape of the curves optimally. Practical examples are also given.

A New Generalization of Extended Tanh—Function Method for Solving Nonlinear Evolution Equations

Making use of a new generalized ans?tze and a proper transformation, we generalized the extended tanh-function method. Applying the generalized method with the aid of Maple, we consider some nonlinear evolution equations. As a result, we can successfully recover the previously known solitary wave solutions that had been found by the extended tanh-function method and other more sophisticated methods. More importantly, for some equations, we also obtain other new and more general solutions at the same time. The results include kink-profile solitary-wave solutions, bell-profile solitary-wave solutions, periodic wave solutions, rational solutions, singular solutions and new formal solutions.

SOME REMARKS ON SINGULAR DARBOUX TRANSFORMATIONS FOR UNITONS

Is the paper [2] the authors defined the singular Darboux transformations and established an explicit formula for constructing unitons from a simply connected Riemann surface. M to the group U(N). The formula is obtained as a limit of an infinite consequence of Darboux transformations through some renormalization procedure. In the present paper the authors give a complete proof of the fact that the formula gives a global solution of harmonic maps without singularity.

A note on finite abelian covers

We prove that any abelian cover over a smooth variety is defined by some cyclic equations. From the defining equations, we compute explicitly the normalization, branch locus, ramification indices, global invariants, and the resolution of singularities. As an application, we construct a new algebraic surface which is the quotient of ball.
