description: The 7-quinolinyl bearing 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-amine analogues were synthesized (1–17) and based on the literature these analog were screened in vitro for their α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory profile. All analogues showed moderate to good inhibitory potentials ranging between 0.80 ± 0.05 µM to 40.20 ± 0.70 µM and 1.20 ± 0.10 µM to 43.30 ± 0.80 µM against α-amylase and α-glucosidase. Among the series, analogues 2 (IC50 = 2.10 ± 0.10 µM), (IC50 = 2.40 ± 0.10 µM), 3 (IC50 = 0.80 ± 0.05 µM), (IC50 = 1.20 ± 0.10 µM) and 4 (IC50 = 1.50 ± 0.10 µM), (IC50 = 1.90 ± 0.10 µM) with flouro substitution at phenyl ring of the 1,3,4-thiadiazole ring were identified to be the most potent inhibitors against α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes. The structure of all the newly synthetics analogues were confirmed by using different types of spectroscopic techniques such as HREI-MS, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. To find structure-activity relationship, molecular docking studies were carry out to understand the binding mode of active inhibitors with active site of enzymes and results supported the experimental data. Due to the most potent inhibitory activity of analogue 4 among all the synthesized compound, it was screened against streptozotocin induced diabetic animal model.

description: New transition metal complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) with new Schiff base [HLp] derived from pyrene-1-carbaldehyde and 4-Amino-3-mercapto-5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, FT-IR, UV-Visible, ESR spectral studies, magnetic moment measurements and cyclic voltammetry. Results prove that [HLp] acts as bidentate ligand. Low conductance data reveal non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. The spectroscopic data and magnetic moment values along with elemental analytical data support octahedral geometries for Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) complexes and square planar geometry for Cu(II) complexes. ESR spectra of Cu(II) complexes exhibited g values trend as g∥>g⊥> ge. The nephelauxetic ratio (β) along with orbital reduction factors (K values) report the covalent nature of the metal-ligand bonds in complexes. Thermal analysis was also carried out to propose the composition of complexes and to determine their thermal stability. Coats-Redfern method was employed to evaluate some kinetic parameters of thermal degradation processes. In vitro antimicrobial properties of all synthesized compounds were investigated. After assessing the inhibition zones, metal complexes have been found more antimicrobial active than the Schiff base against both bacterial as well as fungal strains. Metal complexes also showed remarkable fluorescence and antioxidant properties.

description: This work intends to analyze the nonlinear stochastic dynamics of drillstrings in horizontal configuration. For this purpose, it considers a beam theory, with effects of rotatory inertia and shear deformation, which is capable of reproducing the large displacements that the beam undergoes. The friction and shock effects, due to beam/borehole wall transversal impacts, as well as the force and torque induced by bit-rock interaction, are also considered in the model. Uncertainties of bit-rock interaction model are taken into account using a parametric probabilistic approach. Numerical simulations have shown that the mechanical system of interest has a very rich nonlinear stochastic dynamics, which generate phenomena such as bit-bounce, stick-slip, and transverse impacts. A study aiming to maximize the drilling process efficiency, varying drillstring velocities of translation and rotation is presented. Also, the work presents the definition and solution of two optimizations problems, one deterministic and one robust, where the objective is to maximize drillstring rate of penetration into the soil respecting its structural limits.
The energy demands of a 2,000 meter race simulation for national level oarswomen
Creators: name: Young, Ingrid Victoria
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to assess the energy demands of a 2,000 meter race simulation (RS) for national level oarswomen; as evaluated on a rowing ergometer (RE). A Progressive Intensity Test (P.I.T.) was also performed on the RE to further evaluate the RS. Six national level oarswomen (X values: age= 24.5 yrs., ht= 179 cm, wt= 75 kg), all current national team candidates (1988), participated in this investigation. A 6 1/2 minute tape recorded water race was used to execute a 2,000 meter RS on a Dr. Gjessing Ergorow ergometer. The tape recording was an actual race tape that was respliced to last exactly 6 1/2 minutes. Metabolic and respiratory exchange variables were continuously monitored by an open circuit method, utilizing a Beckman Metabolic Measurement Cart interfaced on-line with a Hewlitt Packard 3052A data acquisition system. The energy demands were calculated from metabolic variables, total oxygen cost and the analysis of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (recovery V0₂).Results indicated a mean V0₂max. of 3.85 1.min⁻¹ , mean net V0₂ of 24.48 1 and a mean recovery V0₂ of 4.92 1. This represented the aerobic cost of the event at approximately 80% or 4/5ths of the total energy cost while the anaerobic contribution was approximately 20% of l/5th of the total energy cost. During the RS, V0₂ values rapidly increased to 90% of mean V0₂max. (3.85 l.min⁻¹) in the first two minutes. Mean max. VE (BTPS) RS value was 122.4 1.min⁻¹. VE plateaued after two minutes and remained around 90% of P.I.T. mean max. VE for the final 4 1/2 minutes. Mean max. excess C0₂ for RS was 19.81 ml.kg⁻¹.min⁻¹. The average maximal heart rate, as recorded in the RS was 192.8 bpm. The results of this study indicate the high aerobic demands and tremendous exercise intensity involved in the 2,000 meter RS.

description: The capture of compact stellar remnants by galactic black holes provides a unique laboratory for exploring the near horizon geometry of the Kerr spacetime, or possible departures from general relativity if the central cores prove not to be black holes. The gravitational radiation produced by these Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs) encodes a detailed map of the black hole geometry, and the detection and characterization of these signals is a major scientific goal for the LISA mission. The waveforms produced are very complex, and the signals need to be coherently tracked for hundreds to thousands of cycles to produce a detection, making EMRI signals one of the most challenging data analysis problems in all of gravitational wave astronomy. Estimates for the number of templates required to perform an exhaustive grid-based matched-filter search for these signals are astronomically large, and far out of reach of current computational resources. Here I describe an alternative approach that employs a hybrid between Genetic Algorithms and Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques, along with several time saving techniques for computing the likelihood function. This approach has proven effective at the blind extraction of relatively weak EMRI signals from simulated LISA data sets.

description: We measure the electron escape-rate from surface-acoustic-wave dynamic quantum dots (QDs) through a tunnel barrier. Rate-equations are used to extract the tunnelling rates, which change by an order of magnitude with tunnel-barrier gate voltage. We find that the tunnelling rates depend on the number of electrons in each dynamic QD because of Coulomb energy. By comparing this dependence to a saddle-point-potential model, the addition energies of the second and third electron in each dynamic QD are estimated. The scale (a few meV) is comparable to those in static QDs as expected.

description: Design erosion is a persistent problem within the software engineering discipline. Software designs tend to deteriorate over time and there is a need for tools and techniques that support software architects when dealing with legacy systems. This paper presents an evaluation of a Search Based Software Engineering (SBSE) approach intended to recover high-level architecture designs of software systems by structuring low-level artefacts into high-level architecture artefact configurations. In particular , this paper describes the performance evaluation of a number of metaheuristic search algorithms applied to architecture reconstruction problems with high dimensionality in terms of objectives. These problems have been selected as representative of the typical challenges faced by software architects dealing with legacy systems and the results inform the ongoing developed of a software tool that supports the analysis of trade-offs between different reconstructed architectures.

description: The thiazole ring is found in many pharmaceutical and natural products. In this article, the convenient synthesis of two new hybrid molecules carrying the thiazole nucleus linked to pyrazole or pyridine rings is described. The structure of the synthesized hybrids is confirmed by spectroscopic and X-ray analysis. Using Hirshfeld analysis, the molecular packing of thiazolyl-pyrazole hybrid 2 is controlled by many weak S…S, S…C, S…H, C…N, N…H, C…C, C…H and H…H non-covalent interactions. The percentage contributions of these contacts in the molecular packing are 1.6, 0.2, 22.1, 0.7, 7.9, 0.4, 27.5, and 39.6%, respectively. DFT calculations predicted the natural atomic charges, polarity, and frontier molecular orbitals and their derived reactivity parameters.

Comparison of cardiorespiratory parameters during treadmill and immersion running
Creators: name: Welsh, Donald Gordon
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to compare the relationship between immersion running and treadmill running through the measurement of cardiorespiratory parameters. Sixteen subjects completed two exercise protocols to exhaustion. The treadmill running protocol was initiated at 3.08 m*s-l and increased a 0.22 m*s-l every sixty seconds. The immersion running protocol utilized an immersion running Ergometer (IRE). The IRE is similar to a tethered swim machine. The initial weight was set at 1 kg and Increased a 1/2 kg every sixty seconds. Heart rate (HR), oxygen consumption (V02), ventilatory equivalent (VE/V02), and minute ventilation (VE) were determined at ventilatory threshold and at maximal effort, HR, V02, VE/V02 and VE were analyzed by MANOVA (RM). Tidal volume and frequency of breathing were collected for four subjects at ventilatory threshold and at maximal effort (no statistical analysis). Two subjects who had completed the initial exercise protocols volunteered for a follow up study of blood flow distribution testing (no statistical analysis). These subjects were injected with Tc-99 2-methyloxy isobutyl isonitrlle at ventilatory threshold during immersion and treadmill running. Imaging was performed with a Selmans Gamma Camera at the UBC Dept. of Nuclear Medicine. V02 and HR at ventilatory threshold and maximal effort were significantly lower (P < .05) during immersion running. VE/V02 was significantly greater at maximal effort during immersion. Minute ventilation was unaffected by immersion, however, there was a trend towards a smaller tidal volume and greater frequency of breathing. The blood flow distribution data varied considerably partially between subjects. The significant drop in V02 at maximum effort and at ventilation threshold during immersion running may be accounted for by changes in muscle mass recruitment, muscle fibre type recruitment, recruitment pattern and state of peripheral adaptation (muscular). A lower heart rate during immersion may be due to increases in intrathoracic blood volume. The trend towards a higher breathing frequency and lower tidal volume during immersion running may be due to the increased effort to breath caused by hydrostatic chest compression. The significant increase in VE/V02 at maximal effort during immersion running was due to the significant drop in V02. It may be concluded that immersion running causes significant changes in cardiorespiratory parameters at ventilatory threshold and at maximal effort. Research is needed to investigate the significance of the changes.

description: A nanoparticle (NP) immersed in biological media rapidly forms a corona of adsorbed proteins, which later controls the eventual fate of the particle and the route through which adverse outcomes may occur. The composition and timescale for the formation of this corona are both highly dependent on both the NP and its environment. The deposition of proteins on the surface of the NP is related to processes of random sequential adsorption and, based on this model, we develop a rate-equation treatment for the formation of a corona represented by hard spheres on spherical and cylindrical NPs. We find that the geometry of the NP significantly alters the composition of the corona through a process independent of the rate constants assumed for adsorption and desorption of proteins, with the radius and shape of the NP both influencing the corona. Moreover, we demonstrate that in the condition of strong binding such that the adsorption is effectively irreversible the corona content reflects the protein mobility and concentration in solution rather than their binding affinity.

description: The pyrimidine scaffold represents one of the privileged structures in chemistry, and there has been an increase in number of studies utilizing this scaffold and its derivatives. A series of 2-amino pyrimidines were synthesized by the reaction of ketene dimethyl thio-acetals with guanidinium nitrate in presence of sodium ethoxide in ethanol under reflux condition. Spectral analysis of the final compounds has been carried out using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and HRMS. Further, the structure of one of the derivatives 4-ethoxy-6-(naphthalen-1-yl) pyrimidin-2-amine (2d) was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. X-ray diffraction analysis for 2d has been reported. The crystal structure of 2d is stabilized by intermolecular N–H…N, C–H…π and π…π weak interactions. To check whether pyrimidine could be ligands for two kinases involved in cancer, docking studies were performed. Few of the compounds showed strong binding affinity with IGF1R and EGFR.

description: We prove that the function field of a variety which possesses a special correspondence in the sense of M. Rost preserves the rationality of cycles of small codimensions. This fact was proven by Vishik in the case of quadrics and played the crucial role in his construction of fields with $u$-invariant $2^r+1$. The main technical tools are algebraic cobordism of Levine-Morel, generalized Rost degree formula and divisibility of Chow traces of certain Landweber-Novikov operations. As a direct application of our methods we prove the Vishik's Theorem for all $F_4$-varieties.

description: We discuss the structure of Dyson--Schwinger equations in quantum gravity and conclude in particular that all relevant skeletons are of first order in the loop number. There is an accompanying sub Hopf algebra on gravity amplitudes equivalent to identities between n-graviton scattering amplitudes which generalize the Slavnov Taylor identities. These identities map the infinite number of charges and finite numbers of skeletons in gravity to an infinite number of skeletons and a finite number of charges needing renormalization. Our analysis suggests that gravity, regarded as a probability conserving but perturbatively non-renormalizable theory, is renormalizable after all, thanks to the structure of its Dyson--Schwinger equations.

description: In order to elucidate the nature of the brightest infrared sources associated with IRAS 20343+4129, IRS1 and IRS3, we observed with the Submillimeter Array (SMA) the 1.3 mm continuum and CO(2-1) emission of the region. Faint millimeter dust continuum emission was detected toward IRS1, and we derived an associated gas mass of ~0.8 Msun. The IRS1 spectral energy distribution agrees with IRS1 being an intermediate-mass Class I source of about 1000 Lsun, whose circumstellar material is producing the observed large infrared excess. We have discovered a high-velocity CO bipolar outflow in the east-west direction, which is clearly associated with IRS1, and the outflow parameters are similar to those of intermediate-mass young stellar objects. Associated with the blue large scale CO outflow lobe, detected with single-dish observations, we only found two elongated low-velocity structures on either side of IRS3. The large-scale outflow lobe is almost completely resolved out by the SMA. Our detected low-velocity CO structures are coincident with elongated H2 emission features. The strongest millimeter continuum condensations in the region are found on either side of IRS3, where the infrared emission is extremely weak, and the CO and H2 elongated structures follow the border of the millimeter continuum emission that is facing IRS3. All these results suggest that the dust is associated with the walls of an expanding cavity driven by IRS3, estimated to be a B2 star. Within and beyond the expanding cavity, the millimeter continuum sources can be sites of future low-mass star formation.

description: This work deals with the solution of a non-convex optimization problem to enhance the performance of an energy harvesting device, which involves a nonlinear objective function and a discontinuous constraint. This optimization problem, which seeks to find a suitable configuration of parameters that maximize the electrical power recovered by a bistable energy harvesting system, is formulated in terms of the dynamical system response and a binary classifier obtained from 0 to 1 test for chaos. A stochastic solution strategy that combines penalization and the cross-entropy method is proposed and numerically tested. Computational experiments are conducted to address the performance of the proposed optimization approach by comparison with a reference solution, obtained via an exhaustive search in a refined numerical mesh. The obtained results illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the cross-entropy optimization strategy (even in the presence of noise or in moderately higher dimensions), showing that the proposed framework may be a very useful and powerful tool to solve optimization problems involving nonlinear energy harvesting dynamical systems.
Quantum-like Representation of Macroscopic Configurations

description: The aim of this paper is to apply a contextual probabilistic model (in the spirit of Mackey, Gudder, Ballentine) to represent and to generalize some results of quantum logic about possible macroscopic quantum-like (QL) behaviour. The crucial point is that our model provides QL-representation of macroscopic configurations in terms of complex probability amplitudes -- wave functions of such configurations. Thus, instead of the language of propositions which is common in quatum logic, we use the language of wave functions which is common in the conventional presentation of QM. We propose a quantum-like representation algorithm, QLRA, which maps probabilistic data of any origin in complex (or even hyperbolic) Hilbert space. On the one hand, this paper clarifyes some questions in foundations of QM, since some rather mystical quantum features are illustrated on the basis of behavior of macroscopic systems. On the other hand, the approach developed in this paper may be used e.g. in biology, sociology, or psychology. Our example of QL-representation of hidden macroscopic configurations can find natural applications in those domains of science.

An implied reader’s reading? – A reception-oriented analysis of New Zealand identities
Creators: name: Luh, Katharina
Publisher: name: KULT_online
Year: 2010

description: Christina Stachurski is an award-winning playwright and theatre director teaching modern drama and creative writing at Canterbury University. Reading Pakeha? is based on her doctoral thesis and is her first book-length foray into the field of fictional analysis. By combining Iser’s theory of implied readership with an author- and reception-centred approach, Stachurski studies the role of fictional representations in the shaping of New Zealand identities over various decades. More precisely, she tries to deduce through (con)textual analysis general reader responses to three canonical New Zealand novels published between 1939 and 1990. Stachurski successively analyses these works of fiction by comparing them with each other and with other New Zealand novels (and feature films) of the period as well as the settler/societal contexts of Australia and Canada. In so doing, she identifies the wide range of readerships these novels cater to while tracing changes to the understanding of the term ‘Pakeha’ over time.

description: The one dimensional polymer complex (C9H15N3)[CdCl4], was synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, FT-IR vibrational, and thermal analysis, UV–Visible and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopic investigations. The crystal structure crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4. The experimental geometric data of the crystalline molecule and the results of density functional theory (DFT) generated utilizing computational methods at DFT/ωB97XD and DFT/B3LYP-D3/Gen/6-311++G(d, p)//LanL2DZ levels of theory were compared. Significantly, in order to reveal the vibrational modes of the named chemical, the Infrared and Raman spectra were registered. Then, 13C and 113Cd solid-state NMR was employed to characterize this hybrid material using a polar solvent to conduct an investigation of the optical characteristics for the UV–visible range. Consequently, utilizing the highest occupied molecular orbital and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO–LUMO) calculations, the molecule’s energy gap (Eg) was determined. More so, the PL tests revealed two peaks at about 400 and 423 nm while the Hirshfeld surface (HS) analysis and DFT calculations were also carried out to acquire insight into the role of weak molecular interactions in the complex that affect the self-assembly process and crystal packing. In addition, molecular docking experiments with the 6U3Y, 1SAX, and 2D45 receptors reveal ideal postures with intriguing binding affinities of −5.2, −5.6, and −5.7 kcal.mol−1, respectively. Lastly, thermo-differential analysis techniques (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis techniques (TGA) were used to account for the thermal degradation of the current complex.

description: We introduce the generic central character of an irreducible discrete series representation of an affine Hecke algebra. Using this invariant we give a new classification of the irreducible discrete series characters for all abstract affine Hecke algebras (except for the types E) with arbitrary positive parameters and we prove an explicit product formula for their formal degrees (in all cases).

Renormalizable Sectors in Resonance Chiral Theory: S -> pi pi Decay Amplitude

description: We develop a resonance chiral theory without any a priori limitation on the number of derivatives in the hadronic operators. Through an exhaustive analysis of the resonance lagrangian and by means of field redefinitions, we find that the number of independent operator contributing to the S -> pi pi decay amplitude is finite: there is only one single-trace operator (the cd term) and three multi-trace terms. The deep implication of this fact is that the ultraviolet divergences that appear in this amplitude at the loop level can only appear through these chiral invariant structures. Hence, a renormalization of these couplings renders the amplitude finite.

description: Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has proven to be a critical ingredient in the current picture of galaxy assembly and growth. However, observational constraints on AGN-driven outflows face technical challenges and as a result, the cold molecular gas outflow properties of type-1 AGN are not well known. We present new IRAM NOrthern Extended Milimeter Array (NOEMA) observations of CO (1-0) in F07599+6508, Z11598$-$0112, F13342+3932, and PG1440+356, all nearby type-1 AGN and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). We achieve spatial resolution of 1-3 arcsec corresponding to physical scales of 2--8~kpc and spectral resolution of 15-60 km s$^{-1}$ which enables updated CO (1-0) redshifts and a detailed morphological view of the cold molecular gas in these sources. The CO (1-0) luminosities, $L_{CO}^{\prime}$, are in the range 2-12$\times 10^9$ K km s$^{-1}$ pc$^{2}$ and inferred molecular gas masses, $M$(H$_2$), are in the range 2-9$\times 10^9$ M$_{\odot}$. The velocity fields and gas distributions do not unambiguously identify any of these sources as having outflows. However, Z11598$-$0112 has signs of infalling material and after the subtraction of a rotating disk model PG 1440+356 shows complex kinematics in the residuals that may indicate an outflow or warped disk.

description: We show that the dynamics resulting from preparing a one-dimensional quantum system in the ground state of two decoupled parts, then joined together and left to evolve unitarily with a translational invariant Hamiltonian (a local quench), can be described by means of quantum field theory. In the case when the corresponding theory is conformal, we study the evolution of the entanglement entropy for different bi-partitions of the line. We also consider the behavior of one- and two-point correlation functions. All our findings may be explained in terms of a picture, that we believe to be valid more generally, whereby quasiparticles emitted from the joining point at the initial time propagate semiclassically through the system.

description: MXenes are two-dimensional materials with a rich set of remarkable chemical and electromagnetic properties, the latter including saturable absorption and intense surface plasmon resonances. To fully harness the functionality of MXenes for applications in optics, electronics and sensing, it is important to understand the interaction of light with MXenes on atomic and femtosecond dimensions. Here, we use ultrafast electron diffraction and high-resolution electron microscopy to investigate the laser-induced structural dynamics of Ti3C2Tx nanosheets. We find an exceptionally fast lattice response with an electron-phonon coupling time of 230 femtoseconds. Repetitive femtosecond laser excitation transforms Ti3C2Tx through a structural transition into a metamaterial with deeply sub-wavelength nanoripples that are aligned with the laser polarization. By a further laser illumination, the material is reversibly photo-switchable between a flat and rippled morphology. The resulting nanostructured MXene metamaterial with directional nanoripples is expected to exhibit an anisotropic optical and electronic response as well as an enhanced chemical activity that can be switched on and off by light.

description: The spontaneous emergence of enhanced responses and local orders are properties often associated with complex matter where nonlinearities and spatial inhomogeneities dominate. We discuss these phenomena in quantum devices realized with superconducting Josephson junction networks and cold atoms in optical lattices. We evidence how the pertinent engineering of the network's shape induces the enhancement of the zero-voltage Josephson critical currents in superconducting arrays as well as the emergence of spatially localized condensates for cold atoms in inhomogeneous optical lattices.

Non-weight bearing water exercise : changes in cardiorespiratory function in elderly men and women
Creators: name: Jessop, Darrell James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a 5 week program of aquatic exercise on selected cardiorespiratory parameters in the elderly participant. Fifteen men and women (mean age 68.5 years, range 61-75 years) were recruited voluntarily from regional adult day-care and community centre facilities. Participants underwent a series of physiological tests before the program started and 5 weeks later at the end of the program. Measurements included height, weight, spirometry measurements (FVC, FEV¹ֹ⁰, VEmax), resting blood pressure, resting heart rate, exercise heart rate and VO₂max as determined by a continuous treadmill test (modified after Jones and Campbell, 1982). Following the 5 week aquatic exercise program, the experimental group (n = 8) showed a significant decrease in resting systolic blood pressure (SBPR) (EXPTL:131.5<CTRL:133.4 mmHg) and resting heart rate (HR rest) (EXPTL:71.0<CTRL:76.6 btsּmin⁻¹) in comparison to the control group (n = 7) which exhibited no change. In addition, the experimental group yielded a significant increase in forced expiratory volume (FEV¹ֹ⁰) (EXPTL:2.4>CTRL:2.2 1ּsec⁻¹) and maximal oxygen uptake (VO₂max ) (EXPTL:25.8>CTRL:23.5 mlּkg⁻¹ּmin⁻¹ ) in comparison to the control group. The findings in this study indicate that the exercise capacity of the elderly participant can increase with aquatic exercise: supervised aquatic exercise at or above the recommended intensity of exercise performed three times weekly can produce significant changes in the physical work capacity of the elderly
Splitting type, global sections and Chern classes for torsion free sheaves on P^N

description: In this paper we compare a torsion free sheaf $\FF$ on $\PP^N$ and the free vector bundle $\oplus_{i=1}^n\OPN(b_i)$ having same rank and splitting type. We show that the first one has always "less" global sections, while it has a higher second Chern class. In both cases bounds for the difference are found in terms of the maximal free subsheaves of $\FF$. As a consequence we obtain a direct, easy and more general proof of the "Horrocks' splitting criterion", also holding for torsion free sheaves, and lower bounds for the Chern classes $c_i(\FF(t))$ of twists of $\FF$, only depending on some numerical invariants of $\FF$. Especially, we prove for rank $n$ torsion free sheaves on $\PP^N$, whose splitting type has no gap (i.e. $b_i\geq b_{i+1}\geq b_i-1$ for every $i=1, ...,n-1$), the following formula for the discriminant: \[ Δ(\FF):=2nc_2-(n-1)c_1^2\geq -{1/12}n^2(n^2-1)\] Finally in the case of rank $n$ reflexive sheaves we obtain polynomial upper bounds for the absolute value of the higher Chern classes $c_3(\FF(t)), ..., c_n(\FF(t))$, for the dimension of the cohomology modules $H^i\FF(t)$ and for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of $\FF$; these polynomial bounds only depend only on $c_1(\FF)$, $c_2(\FF)$, the splitting type of $\FF$ and $t$.

description: For the technologically relevant spin Hall effect most theoretical approaches rely on the evaluation of the spin-conductivity tensor. In contrast, for most experimental configurations the generation of spin accumulation at interfaces and surfaces is the relevant quantity. Here, we directly calculate the accumulation of spins due to the spin Hall effect at the surface of a thin metallic layer, making quantitative predictions for different materials. Two distinct limits are considered, both relying on a fully relativistic Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker density functional theory method. In the semiclassical approach, we use the Boltzmann transport formalism and compare it directly to a fully quantum mechanical non-equilibrium Keldysh formalism. Restricting the calculations to the spin Hall induced, odd in spatial inversion, contribution in the limit of the relaxation time approximation we find good agreement between both methods, where deviations can be attributed to the complexity of Fermi surfaces. Finally, we compare our results to experimental values of the spin accumulation at surfaces as well as the Hall angle and find good agreement for the trend across the considered elements.
