Positivity of Chern classes for reflexive sheaves on P^N

Abstract: It is well known that the Chern classes ci of a rank n vector bundle on PPN, generated by global sections, are non-negative if ileqn and vanish otherwise. This paper deals with the following question: does the above result hold for the wider class of reflexive sheaves? We show that the Chern numbers ci with igeq4 can be arbitrarily negative for reflexive sheaves of any rank; on the contrary for ileq3 we show positivity of the ci with weaker hypothesis. We obtain lower bounds for c1, c2 and c3 for every reflexive sheaf FF which is generated by H0FF on some non-empty open subset and completely classify sheaves for which either of them reach the minimum allowed, or some value close to it.
