AG codes from the second generalization of the GK maximal curve
The second generalized GK maximal curves are maximal
curves over finite fields with elements, where is a prime power
and an odd integer, constructed by Beelen and Montanucci. In this
paper we determine the structure of the Weierstrass semigroup where
is an arbitrary -rational point of . We
show that these points are Weierstrass points and the Frobenius dimension of
is computed. A new proof of the fact that the first and
the second generalized GK curves are not isomorphic for any is
obtained. AG codes and AG quantum codes from the curve are
constructed; in some cases, they have better parameters with respect to those
already known

Avaliação de alumínio trocável em solos ácidos
One of the main factors limiting agricultural production in tropical climate regions is mainly related to the presence of exchangeable aluminum (Al3+) in highly weathered acid soils. Four methods of Al3+ determination extracted with neutral 1 mol L¹ KCl solution were evaluated: three colorimetric methods (aluminon plus ascorbic acid, and eriochrome cyanine R by FIA) and the usual titrimetric method with back-titration. Surface samples from 20 soils of different Brazilian regions, with active acidity (0.01 mol L¹ CaCl2 pH) ranging from very high to medium (3.82 to 5.52), were used. The variance analysis revealed significant interaction among Al3+ determination methods and soil. Mean methods comparisons within each soil (Tukey, P ; 10 mmol c dm³. Among colorimetric methods, in operational terms, the eriochrome with FIA method presented analytical performance up to 50 samples per hour, easiness and sensibility for routine Al analysis in soil samples. However, due to the specificity, the titration/back-titration method should be used, despite the moroseness, when the Al3+ ions are the objective.Um dos principais fatores que afetam a produção agrícola em regiões de clima tropical, é a presença de alumínio trocável (Al3+) em solos ácidos altamente intemperizados. Foram avaliados quatro métodos de determinação de alumínio trocável em solução neutra de KCl 1 mol L¹: três métodos colorimétricos (aluminon, aluminon + ácido ascórbico e eriocromo cianina R por FIA) e o método titulométrico usual com retrotitulação ácida. Para obtenção dos extratos de KCl, foram usadas amostras superficiais de 20 solos de diferentes regiões brasileiras, com acidez ativa (pH em CaCl2 0,01 mol L¹) variando de muito alta a média (3,82 a 5,52). A análise de variância revelou interação significativa entre os métodos de determinação e amostras de solos. O teste de médias (Tukey, P ; 10 mmol c dm³. Dentre os métodos colorimétricos, o reagente eriocromo cianina R, em sistema FIA, mostrou-se operacionalmente confiável e eficiente para a análise de Al, de amostras de solos, em rotina, com freqüência analítica de 50 determinações por hora. Todavia, devido à especificidade, o método titulométrico com retrotitulação deve ser usado, não obstante a morosidade, quando o objetivo é a determinação do íon Al3+
Relações entre acidez e propriedades químicas de solos brasileiros
Nos solos de regiões de clima tropical, a elevada acidez e a presença de alumínio trocável (Al3+), aliadas à baixa fertilidade, são os principais fatores a restringir a produção agrícola. Investigaram-se os componentes da acidez, com ênfase ao alumínio, e suas relações com as propriedades químicas de 26 solos de regiões brasileiras. O pH correlacionou positivamente com os valores de P, Ca, Mg, K, SB, CTC e V%, e negativamente com a saturação de Al. O Al3+ foi o cátion trocável predominante em 32 % dos solos com pH inferior a 5,6. O H+ titulável em KCl representa formas hydroxi-Al(OH)x de baixa estabilidade e o Al obtido pelo extrator de Wolf-Morgan corresponde ao Al trocável + não-trocável. As formas Al3+ e hydroxi-Al de baixa estabilidade diminuíram rapidamente com o pH até 5,5. O Al não-trocável aumentou até pH 4,5, diminuiu a seguir até pH 5,5 e aumentou lentamente com o pH de 7,0 a 7,5.In soils of tropical climate regions the high acidity and the presence of exchangeable aluminum (Al3+), associated to low fertility, are the main restrainting factors for agricultural production. A laboratory experiment was conducted using 26 soils of different Brazilian regions, to investigate soil acidity components, giving emphasis to Al and their relations with chemical properties. The pH correlated positively with P, Ca, Mg, K, BS, CEC and V% values, and negatively with Al saturation. The Al3+ was the predominant exchangeable cation in 32% of the soils with pH below 5.6. The KCl titratable H+ represents the hydroxi-Al(OH)x complex with low stability and the Wolf-Morgan extracted Al corresponds to the exchangeable + non-exchangeable Al species. The Al3+ and low stability hydroxi-Al decreased quickly with increasing pH up to 5.5. The non-exchangeable Al increased up to pH 4.5, then decreased to pH 5.5 and had a small increment from 7.0 to 7.5
An approach to normal polynomials through symmetrization and symmetric reduction
An irreducible polynomial of degree is {\em normal}
over if and only if its roots satisfy the
condition , where
is the circulant determinant. By
finding a suitable {\em symmetrization} of (A multiple of
which is symmetric in ), we obtain a condition on the
coefficients of that is sufficient for to be normal. This approach
works well for but encounters computational difficulties when . In the present paper, we consider irreducible polynomials of the form
. For and , by an indirect method, we
are able to find simple conditions on that are sufficient for to be
normal. In a more general context, we also explore the normal polynomials of a
finite Galois extension through the irreducible characters of the Galois group.Comment: 28 page

Biological Hydrogen Production by Dark Fermentation in a Stirred Tank Reactor and Its Correlation with the pH Time Evolution
Dark fermentation is a hydrogen generating process carried out by anaerobic spore-forming bacteria that metabolize carbon sources producing gas and short-chain acids. The process can be controlled, and the hydrogen harvested if bacteria are grown in a reactor with favorable conditions. In this work, bacteria selected from natural sources were grown with a defined culture media, while pH was monitored, with the aim of relating the amount of generated hydrogen to the increase in hydron ion concentration. Therefore, a model based on the acid-base species mass balance is proposed and solved to estimate the lag phase time and measure the hydrogen production efficiency and kinetics. Hydrogen production in a stirred batch reactor was performed for 150–200 h, at given operating conditions using a previously defined growth media, to validate the model. Using the proposed model, the cumulated moles of produced hydrogen correlate well with those predicted from the pH curve. Hence, the modified Gompertz model parameters, largely used for describing the hydrogen generation kinetics by dark fermentation, were estimated from the pH curve and from the experimentally measured generated hydrogen. Satisfactory agreement was found, thus, validating the method.Fil: Martinez, Veronica Laura. Ministerio de Defensa.

Argentine Navy Icebreaker Ship “Almirante Irizar” Sludge Microbial Composition Analysis for Biohydrogen Production
Sludge from the wastewater treatment plant of the Argentinean Navy icebreaker ship “Almirante Irizar” was used as inoculum for biohydrogen production. The bacterial community was monitored throughout the fermentation, by sequencing 16S rRNA amplicons, to establish the microbial dynamics of the bioreactor over time. The established operating procedure assured a hydrogen content, along the process, in the range of 59.2–70.0%. The predominant species found were Clostridium sensu stricto and Sporolactobacillus sp. Clostridium showed higher values in the beginning of the fermentation with more than 90% of relative abundance. Conversely, Sporolactobacillus reached values close to 20% at its end. Additional topics discussed are the role of lactic acid bacteria in fermentative biohydrogen production systems and a series of in-process parameters that would allow control of this population. The results obtained allow supporting the use of this type of sludge as a source of hydrogen-producing bacteria.Fil: García, Rodrigo Enrique. Ministerio de Defensa.
