An elementary approach to the homological properties of constant-rank operators by Arroyo-Rabasa, Adolfo, Simental, José

“…We establish that the constant-rank property is a sufficient and necessary condition for the validity of a generalized Poincaré lemma on spaces of homogeneous maps over $\mathbb{R}^d$, and we prove that the existence of potentials on spaces of periodic maps requires a strictly weaker condition than the constant-rank property.…”

Interacting Blends of Novel Unsaturated Polyester Amide Resin with Vinyl Acetate by H. S. Patel, K. K. Panchal, S. R. Patel, S. N. Desai

“…These UPEAs were then blended with a vinyl monomer namely, Vinyl acetate (VA) to produce a homogeneous resin syrup. The curing of these UPEAs-VA resin blends was carried out by using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator for the radical polymerization and was monitored by using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). …”
