Chemical Mathematics

An illustration of an early result of chemical mathematics is an observation that the eigenvalues of alternant molecular graphs come in pairs, positive and negative. This was known to Coulson and Streitweiser [35] before the same was rediscovered in mathematics. Another illustration of chemical mathematics is Heilbronner s recursion for the characteristic polynomial of graphs containing cycles, mentioned earlier, which was rediscovered in mathematics 20 years later. An additional illustration of chemical mathematics is the abovementioned paper of Bollobds and Erdos, which is about mathematical properties (of upper and lower bounds of the generalized Randi(5 index, which are of limited interest to chemists).

WTicn you get even deeper into chemical mathematics you will be able to figure out the percentage of elements in a compound for which you know the formula, or the formula of a compound when you know the percentage of elements, or the numbers of liters of a gas you prepare in a chemical reaction.

The early checkout of the model and the results in testing the improvements we attempted in the chemical, mathematical, and meteorological aspects of the problem are summarized below. Many times it seemed that the earlier simple concepts gave better results, but working with better data and more demanding theoretical descriptions than before, we uncovered some significant areas to investigate further. 

So far, fitted kinetic odes have been less successful than reduced mechanisms. One reason for this limited success may be a result of the hybrid chemical-mathematical approach for finding the ode models. It is expected that in the future, fully mathematical methods will be used for finding... 

Computational chemistry, which refers to physical-chemical mathematical modeling at the molecular level and includes such topics as quantum chemistry, force fields, molecular mechanics, molecular simulations, molecular modeling, molecular design, and cheminformatics. 

An attempt to unify the mass transport phenomena of liquid membrane separation underlying the basic LM configurations was presented in this chapter. The basic theory was developed in a simple physical-chemical-mathematical form and applied to the principal techniques in such a way to obtain comparable methods. Of course it is prehminary work once we start forging links between different methods there wiU be spiUover to further possibilities of integration. 

Mathematically this is the pattern recognition process of cluster and factor analysis in statistics. A top-down, helicopter view overcomes the problem of being unable to see the forest because the trees are in the way. Occam s helicopter, rises above the trees to see the forest and even the pattern of light in its glades. Occam s helicopter will be very useful to us throughout this book because our aim is physical, chemical, mathematical and social analysis rather than description.
