A new, unified superspace approach to the structural characterization of the perovskite-related Sr n (Nb,Ti) n O3n + 2 compound series, strontium niobium/titanium oxide, is presented. To a first approximation, the structure of any member of this compound series can be described in terms of the stacking of (110)-bounded perovskite slabs, the number of atomic layers in a single perovskite slab varying systematically with composition. The various composition-dependent layer-stacking sequences can be interpreted in terms of the structural modulation of a common underlying average structure. The average interlayer separation distance is directly related to the average structure periodicity along the layer stacking direction, while an inherent modulation thereof is produced by the presence of different types of layers (particularly vacant layers) along this stacking direction. The fundamental atomic modulation is therefore occupational and can be described by means of crenel (step-like) functions which define occupational atomic domains in the superspace, similarly to what occurs for quasicrystals. While in a standard crystallographic approach, one must describe each structure (in particular the space group and cell parameters) separately for each composition, the proposed superspace model is essentially common to the whole compound series. The superspace symmetry group is unique, while the primary modulation wavevector and the width of some occupation domains vary linearly with composition. For each rational composition, the corresponding conventional three-dimensional space group can be derived from the common superspace group. The resultant possible three-dimensional space groups are in agreement with all the symmetries reported for members of the series. The symmetry-breaking phase transitions with temperature observed in many compounds can be explained in terms of a change in superspace group, again in common for the whole compound series. Inclusion of the incommensurate phases, present in many compounds of the series, lifts the analysis into a five-dimensional superspace. The various four-dimensional superspace groups reported for this incommensurate phase at different compositions are shown to be predictable from a proposed five-dimensional superspace group apparently common to the whole compound series. A comparison with the scarce number of refined structures in this system and the homologous (Nb,Ca)6Ti6O20 compound demonstrates the suitability of the proposed formalism.

The paper presents a method for geometric modelling of a four-dimensional ball. For this, the regularities of the change in the shape of the projections of simple geometric images of two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces during rotation are considered. Rotations of a segment and a circle around an axis are considered; it is shown that during rotation the shape of their projections changes from the maximum value to the degenerate projection. It was found that the set of points of the degenerate projection belongs to the axis of rotation, and each n-dimensional geometric image during rotation forms a body of a higher dimension, that is, one that belongs to (n + 1) -dimensional space. Identified regularities are extended to the four-dimensional space in which the ball is placed. It is shown that the axis of rotation of the ball will be a degenerate projection in the form of a circle, and the ball, when rotating, changes its size from a volumetric object to a flat circle, then increases again, but in the other direction (that is, it turns out), and then in reverse order to its original position. This rotation is more like a deformation, and such a ball of four-dimensional space is a hypersphere. For geometric modelling of the hypersphere and the possibility of its projection image, the article uses the vector model proposed by P.V. Filippov. The coordinate system 0xyzt is defined. The algebraic equation of the hypersphere is given by analogy with the three-dimensional space along certain coordinates of the center a, b, c, d. A variant of hypersection at t = 0 is considered, which confirms by equations obtaining a two-dimensional ball of three-dimensional space, a point (a ball of zero radius), which coincides with the center of the ball, or an imaginary ball. For the variant t = d, the equation of a two-dimensional ball is obtained, in which the radius is equal to R and the coordinates of all points along the 0t axis are equal to d. The variant of hypersection t = k turned out to be interesting, in which the equation of a two-dimensional sphere was obtained, in which the coordinates of all points along the 0t axis are equal to k, and the radius is . Horizontal vector projections of hypersection are constructed for different values of k. It is concluded that the set of horizontal vector projections of hypersections at t = k defines an ellipse.

The symmetry of a commensurately modulated crystal structure can be described in two different ways: in terms of a conventional three-dimensional space group or using the superspace concept in (3 +d) dimensions. The three-dimensional space group is obtained as a real-space section of the (3 +d) superspace group. A complete network was constructed linking (3 + 1) superspace groups and the corresponding three-dimensional space groups derived from rational sections. A database has been established and is available at http://superspace.epfl.ch/finder/. It is particularly useful for finding common superspace groups for various series of modular (`composition-flexible') structures and phase transitions. The use of the database is illustrated with examples from various fields of crystal chemistry.

Network capacity has been widely studied in recent years. However, most of the literatures focus on the networks where nodes are distributed in a two-dimensional space. In this paper, we propose a 3D hybrid sensor network model. By setting different sensor node distribution probabilities for cells, we divide all the cells in the network into dense cells and sparse cells. Analytical expressions of the aggregate throughput capacity are obtained. We also find that suitable inhomogeneity can increase the network throughput capacity.

AbstractThe suggestion that three-dimensional space is represented by a mosaic of neural map fragments, each covering a small area of space in the plane of locomotion, receives support from studies in complex two-dimensional environments. How map fragments are linked, which brain circuits are involved, and whether metric is preserved across fragments are questions that remain to be determined.

ABSTRACT During the process of satellite navigation, and also in the many tasks of classical positioning, we need to calculate the corrections to the initial (or approximate) location of the point using precise measurement of distances to the permanent points of reference (reference points). In this paper the authors have provided a way of developing Hausbrandt's equations, on the basis of which the exact coordinates of the point in two-dimensional space can be determined by using the computed correction to the coordinates of the auxiliary point. The authors developed generalised equations for threedimensional space introducing additional fixed point and have presented proof of derived formulas.

The analysis of chaotic attractor generation is given, and the generation of novel chaotic attractor is introduced in this paper. The underlying mechanism involves two simple linear systems with one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional space functions. Moreover, it is demonstrated by simulation that various attractor patterns are generated conveniently by adjusting suitable space functions' parameters and the statistic behavior is also discussed.
