Elektrochémia je veda, ktorá študuje iónové systémy a také procesy alebo javy, ktoré prebiehajú na hranici iónových systémov s kovmi alebo s polovodičmi. V súčasnom štádiu rozvoja môžeme elektrochémiu rozdeliť podľa jej zamerania na dve oblasti. Prvá z nich - ionika - sa zaoberá vlastnosťami iónových sústav (roztoky, taveniny, tuhé elektrolyty). Druhá oblasť - elektrodika - sa zaoberá javmi na fázovom rozhraní elektróda/iónová sústava.

Ionika aj elektrodika skúmajú rovnovážne aj nerovnovážne javy a procesy. Výskumom vlastností iónových sústav za rovnovážnych podmienok získavame informácie a predstavy o štruktúre a zložení roztokov a tavenín elektrolytov, ako aj tuhých elektrolytov, kým merania za nerovnovážnych podmienok referujú o elektrickej vodivosti iónových sústav. V oblasti elektrodiky sa štúdiom rovnováh na rozhraní elektróda/roztok (prípadne tavenina) zaoberá elektrochemická termodynamika. Meranie rýchlostí procesov prebiehajúcich na tomto fázovom rozhraní a vysvetlenie zákonitostí, ktorými sa tieto procesy riadia, je predmetom kinetiky elektródových procesov alebo elektrochemickej kinetiky.

This electronic material provides the basic principles of creating a systematic nomenclature of organic compounds, from the simplest hydrocarbons to the more complicated nomenclature of carbohydrates. For some groups of derivatives, alternative ways of generating system names are also mentioned, as well as the most common trivial names that are still in use in the literature and in practice, in some cases being the characteristic (dominant) ones. In the introductory section, the basic rules to be respected when writing names of organic compounds are discussed. This document is intended primarily for interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate students as support material for the courses Organic Chemistry and Selected Chapters in Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. In the final section of this document, solved examples are given so that the student can check how the rules for forming the names of organic compounds have been understood.

In these university-level textbooks, we present the fundamental concepts of networks and graph theory. We explore breadth-first and depth-first graph searching. We present static and dynamic network models. We describe the issue of detecting overlapping and non-overlapping communities in directed and undirected networks. Various approaches to anomaly detection in networks also form an important part of this textbook. The final chapter is dedicated to spectral clustering, which plays a significant role in data mining in network graphs for various application domains.

These textbooks are suitable for first and second-year university students in computer science programs. The study materials are also suitable for students in non-computer science fields, with the aim of improving their knowledge and practical experience in computer science-related areas, and provide an opportunity for students to find employment in IT companies to solve practical tasks.

The university textbooks entitled Global Navigation Satellite Systems: GPS, GLONAS, Galileo, Compass present four navigation systems of the GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems): American NAVSTAR GPS, Russian GLONASS, European Galileo and Chinese Compass. The Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) are also briefly explained. They provide regional service in augmenting the reach and support of signals from satellites of the GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Compass). Each satellite navigation system in the frame of GNSS is elucidated in terms of its principles of operation, structure, specificities, applications, and future perspectives.

The university textbook aims to improve the reader’s understanding of the principles and activities of the presented GNSS. The book emphasizes the possibilities of GNSS applications in geodesy and geography. The university textbook constitutes the basic study literature for the class Global Navigation Satellite Systems within the study program Geography and Geoinformatics at the Faculty of Science of the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice. For a deeper study of the GNSS issue, it is necessary to extend the study materials to include other educational scientific literature dealing with navigation satellite systems and their applications.

Crystallography deals with discerning the arrangement and bonding of atoms in crystalline solids. Almost immediately after their discovery, X-rays began to be used to study the internal structure of substances. The first chapter of this textbook deals with the basic concepts of crystallography. At the beginning, crystalline solids are characterized. In the next section, the basic types of bonds and their characteristics are briefly presented. The main subject of this chapter is the interpretation of basic concepts such as symmetry operations, translational periodicity, grid, elementary cell. Spatial lattices and crystal systems are presented. At the end of this chapter, attention is paid to the description of individual types of defects in crystal structures. In the second chapter, the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom is presented. Individual quantum numbers and their meaning are given. Next, energy levels and allowed transitions within an atom with multiple electrons are described. The second chapter concludes with the characterization of the basic absorption and emission processes. The third chapter is devoted to the production of X-ray radiation and its properties. Sources of X-ray radiation and a description of their operation are presented. Interaction of X-ray radiation with matter, absorption and detection of X-ray radiation are the subject of the last part of this chapter.

The aim of writing the university textbook "Selected Heterocyclic Compounds" was to create a study aid for students of the Organic Chemistry program, which provides essential information in a clear format for the subject of Heterocyclic Compounds. In selecting the content of the textbook, the goal was to present basic information about the chemistry of the most significant heterocycles. Given that the summary of chemical knowledge about heterocycles is vast, it was not possible to include all heterocyclic compounds in the content.

The intention was for readers to orient themselves in the field of heterocyclic compounds. Separate chapters included in the content address the nomenclature of heterocycles, basic chemical properties of individual heterocycles, their synthesis and reactions, the occurrence of heterocycles in nature, and their practical applications (medications, dyes, pesticides, detergents, etc.).

Pojem integrálu je jedným z najvýznamnejších pojmov v matematike vôbec. V naj- primitívnejšej podobe ho používali už starí Gréci pri tvorbe euklidovskej geometrie. No až po Descartovom diele o analytickej geometrii z roku 1637 mohli matematici začať považovať integrál za predmet analýzy. Descartova práca pripravila podmienky pre objav infinitezimálneho počtu Leibnizom a Newtonom okolo roku 1665. V tom čase vznikol veľký spor o prvenstvo tohto objavu, čo rozdelilo učencov Nemecka a Anglicka do dvoch bojujúcich táborov, z ktorých každý fandil svojmu favoritovi. Dnes vieme, že Newtonova práca o fluxiách a fluentoch bola o niečo skoršia, ale Leibnizovo označenie a prístup sa v matematickom svete ujali viac a symboly R a d sa používajú dodnes. Stručný prierez históriou integrálu bude uvedený v Kapitole 1.

Dnes existuje celá hromada skrípt, učebníc, či kníh venovaných výkladu pojmu integrál. Preto pred prvú otázku, či napísať ďalší text o tejto problematike, je postavený každý potenciálny autor. Nás ku kladnej odpovedi na túto otázku doviedla požiadavka študentov nájsť v určitej ucelenej podobe prednášanú problematiku časti zimného semestra druhého ročníka. Druhou motiváciou je trochu odlišný prístup k problematike. Ak si totiž uvedomíme, ktoré metódy sa zvyčajne používajú pri riešení úloh a zís- kavaní rutiny z určitého integrálu, ide hlavne o Newtonovu-Leibnizovu formulu a častokrát na výpočet určitého (Riemannovho) integrálu pomocou definície nezostáva veľa času. Preto sme zaradili pojednanie o Newtonovom integráli v Kapitole 2, ktorý reflektuje túto skutočnosť a má priamy súvis s neurčitým integrálom, ktorého rôznym metódam výpočtu sa venuje relatívne veľa pozornosti v predchádzajúcom semestri. Až za tým v Kapitole 3 vybudujeme teóriu Riemannovho integrálu, uvedieme kritériá jeho existencie, triedy integrovateľných funkcií, základné vlastnosti a nakoniec vzťah s Newtonovým integrálom. Otázky prevažne geometrických aplikácií riešime v Kapitole 4 a v poslednej kapitole sa venujeme rozšíreniu Riemannovho integrálu pre neohraničené funkcie a neohraničené intervaly.
