C2s manifold

Having demonstrated a practical and reliable method to access 2-arylpyrrolidines in high enantioselectivity, we felt that a noteworthy extension of this methodology would lie in its application to bis-arylated products 27, providing a rapid and efficient approach to enantiopure C2-symmetric 2,5-diarylpyrrolidines, which have been identified as valuable chiral auxiliaries and chiral ligand manifolds [29]. Towards this end, substrate 26a was subjected to the standard arylation conditions, which produced 2,5-diphenyl-N-Boc-pyrrolidine 27 in a 96 4 diastereomeric ratio, and 57% isolated yield (s-BuIi/TMEDA produced 27 in lower d.r. (66 34) and yield (42%)), as depicted in Scheme 8.13. 

Proposition 1. For e sufficiently small the periodic orbit 7(t) of (7) survives as aperiodic orbit 7 (t) = rj(t)+0(e), of (10) having the same stability type as 7(t), and depending on e in a C2 manner. Moreover, the local stable and unstable manifolds Wlsoc( ye(t)) and Wfoc e(t)) of 7 (t) remain also e-close to the local stable and unstable manifolds WfoMt)) and Wfioc( (t)) of ft), respectively. 

The projective space P(C2) has many names. In mathematical texts it is often called one-dimensional complex projective space, denoted CP (Students of complex differential geometry may recognize that the space PCC ) is onedimensional as a complex manifold loosely speaking, this means that around any point of (C ) there is a neighborhood that looks like an open subset of C, and these neighborhoods overlap in a reasonable way.) In physics the space appears as the state space of a spin-1/2 particle. In computer science, it is known as a qubit (pronounced cue-hit ), for reasons we will explain in Section 10.2. In this text we will use the name qubit because CP has mathematical connotations we wish to avoid. 

As we have seen in 1.3, has a hyper-Kahler structure when X is a K3 surface or an abelian surface. This is proved by using the solution of the Calabi conjecture. It seems natural to conjecture that this is always true when X is a hyper-Kahler manifold. Although there are several extensions of the Calabi conjecture to noncompact manifolds (e.g. [3, 77]), it is not applicable to our problem. It is because these extensions always give manifolds with quadratic curvature decay while (C2) does not satisfy this decay. 

Our hyper-Kahler metric on (C2) depends on the choice of the hermitian metric on V and W. This hermitian metric should be defined naturally under the identification V = H°(Oz)- Recall that the hyper-Kahler metric on the moduli space of instantons on a hyper-Kahler manifold is induced from the natural L2-metric . Do we have a similar natural definition for the hermitian metric on V ... 

For a later purpose (Chapter 7), we shall explain the perfectness of the Morse function given by the moment map of a torus action on a general symplectic manifold. However, when the fixed points of a torus action are all isolated, such as the case of (C2), the perfectness follows easily from the Morse inequality since they all have even indices. The reader who has interests only in (C2) could skip 5.1. 

Notice that our argument also gives the proof of the perfectness of the Morse function in the case of a noncompact symplectic manifold if the appropriate conditions on / are satisfied. For example, the condition that / 1((—oo, c]) is compact for all c e K is sufficient, and this is the case for (C2) as will be shown later.

The numerical value of the coefficient C2 is -0.20734 for the equilibrium interatomic distance in methane. The above form of the HO transformation matrix is perfectly confirmed by our numerical experiments performed within the FA picture even for very large distortions, which is a consequence of the mathematical structure of the hybridization manifold described above. The numerical data show that the linear response estimate performs very well up to improbably large distortions (the deviation from the linear response estimate is smaller than 0.25% for the distortion of 0.3 rad (about 17°)).

Again, there is a main transition at a critical Damkohler number, Da = Dac. For smaller values of Da the initial perturbation is quickly diluted and the activator decays to the C state, as in the bistable case. The same behavior is observed when the initial perturbation is not sufficiently large. For Da > Dac the perturbation grows as in the bistable case, forming a growing filament that eventually fills the whole system (in the closed flow case), or covers the unstable manifold of the chaotic saddle (in open flows). The filament consists now of a pulse of the C concentration, with a maximum close to the excited state, and accompanied by a smaller pulse of C2. In the closed... 

For many years, the ground state of the C2 molecule had been assumed to be a 3n state, in part because the relative energies of the manifolds of singlet and triplet states were unknown. The discovery of perturbations between the X E+ and b3E states (Ballik and Ramsay, 1963) allowed the relative energies of singlet and triplet states to be determined.
