A Theorem of Wedderburn and Applications

Inom matematiken finns något som kallas ringar. En ring är en mängd element i vilken man också har definierat de två operationerna addition och multiplikation. Elementen kan vara av olika slag. Det som krävs är att ett antal regler, så kallade axiom, ska också vara uppfyllda i mängden. Dessa axiom ska gälla för att en mängd R ska vara en ring: Om a och b är element i R så är a+b och ab också eleThe main focus of this thesis is Wedderburn's theorem that a finite division ring is a field. We present two proofs of this. The thesis also contains a proof of a theorem of Jacobson and a proof of a generalisation by Artin and Zorn that a finite alternative ring is associative, and therefore a field.

On the Determinants of Underpricing in Corporate Bond Offerings

Money is often left on the table when corporations issue new securities. Explanations for the underpricing phenomenon are often related to information asymmetry between the investor and the issuer. In this study we investigate factors affecting underpricing on corporate bonds in the Swedish market. To some extent contrary to what was expected, the results indicate that bonds are on average overpri

Can FAVAR improve Swedish inflation forecasting?

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether factor augmented vectorautoregression (FAVAR) models estimated using principal component analysis are able to improve monthly inflation rate forecasts for Sweden. We produce 42 forecasts for the period January 2012 to June 2015 and evaluate the forecasts by their root mean square errors as well as their ability to correctly predict the sign of t

Käpphäst eller universallösning? En litteraturstudie rörande uppkomsten av den solidariska lönepolitiken

The Swedish Confederation of Trade Unions (LO) presented a new political report in 2015 with the purpose of renewing the wage policy of solidarity. The aim with a renewed wage policy is to create full employment instead of the present mass unemployment, to decrease the wage gap and to eliminate wagedrifts. The renewal may seem a bit strange, when the original policy (also called the Rehn-Meidner m

Improving the Finite Difference Approximation in the Jacobian-Free Newton–Krylov Method

The Jacobian-free Newton–Krylov (JFNK) method is designed to solve a linear system of equations that appears in Newton’s method. It uses the generalized minimal residual (GMRES) method to solve the linear system and a simple function to approximate the matrix-vector multiplications required in GMRES. An advantage of GMRES is the ability to check the residual of a potential solution without doing a

Fatal Aesthetics : A study on the theatrical representation of the public execution in the Islamic State's Palmyra execution video

Since the rise of the Islamic State the world has seen a proliferation of public executions in which spectacle and theatricality have come to play an important role. Their propaganda has adopted an aesthetic style in which violence is openly displayed, celebrated and glorified. This thesis explores the role that aesthetics has in the performed and mediated execution videos of the Islamic State, by

Fantasy on the Human Surface - A study of Somatic Power-Relations and Imagination

The purpose of this thesis is to question and discuss whether the complication of power-relations created upon the present surface of the human body can be surpassed, by re-conceiving the body and ultimately leaving the body behind, without the loss of Being, through the critique of art and photography. This overall query has been broken down into three questions. (1)‘Does the solution behind the

Construction of Crises : Climate, Terror and the Eiffel Tower

This work investigates visualizations of two crises; terrorism and climate change. Focus lies on mediated images concerning Paris 2015, where terrorist attacks had an impact on the following UN climate change conference (COP21). The symbol of the Eiffel Tower was used to portrait both issues and will be studied through a semiotic analysis. Terrorism and climate change are argued to be interlinked,

Ionizing Radiation Effects on Image Sensors: Method on Evaluation from an Image Quality Perspective

Surveillance cameras are vital in the nuclear power industry where the reactor equipment must constantly be kept under surveillance to maintain safety. Constant monitoring is however difficult due to the highly radioactive environment, which cause cameras to malfunction and eventually break. Malfunction typically manifests itself as quality degradation of the image from the cameras. Initially, tem

Screening for adsorptions of Calbindin D9k and Monellin proteins to Silica nanoparticles

Mötet mellan nanopartikel och protein Uttrycket ”god kemi” används som beskrivning för möten mellan människor som kommer bra överens, de som interagerar väl med varandra. Faktorer som personlighet och andra egenskaper spelar stor roll för att ”god kemi” ska uppstå. Likadant är det vid mötet mellan nanopartiklar och proteiner. Skillnaden är att det sker på nanoskalig nivå och att det är, istället Although nanoparticles (NPs) are very small, their field in science is currently growing very large. There are several biological, medical and technical applications possible for NPs when bound to proteins. Protein-NP interactions are difficult to predict and therefore a lot of fundamental research is yet to be completed. This study is an attempt to contribute with the aim to explore the interacti

Polystyrene nanoparticles interactions with Calbindin D9k and Monellin

Nanomedicine and the use of nanoparticles (NPs) are growing like never before. It is therefore important to investigate the interactions in the nano world and the possible hazards. Proteins in organisms can adsorb to NPs and change the proteins structure and therefore their functions. This could be a potential danger and thus an interesting research field. Here, we explore how the proteins Calbind
