This is an an- cient and popular subject of mathematics, connected to many other areas such as algebraic topology, singularity theory, representation theory, combinatorics, commutative algebra, and perhaps even theoretical physics and computational complexity. Vector bundles can be though of as vector spaces varying continuously along a given variety. These geometric objects offer a valuable point of view on alge- braic geometry, and represent the technical core of this work. The first example of vector bundles that we will encounter are logarithmic n vector fields along a (reduced) divisor D in projective space P . This bundle, denoted by n log D , was originally introduced by Deligne P ( ) T − and Saito (cf. [96, 276]) to study the Hodge theory of the complement of D. It is actually not a bundle in general.

  • Ribbons and Their Canonical Embeddings
    transactions of the american mathematical society Volume 347, Number 3, March 1995 RIBBONS AND THEIR CANONICAL EMBEDDINGS DAVE BAYER AND DAVID EISENBUD Abstract. We study double structures on the projective line and on certain other varieties, with a view to having a nice family of degenerations of curves and K3 surfaces of given genus and Clifford index. Our main interest is in the canonical embeddings of these objects, with a view toward Green's Conjecture on the free resolutions of canonical curves. We give the canonical embeddings explicitly, and exhibit an approach to determining a minimal free resolution. Introduction What is the limit of the canonical model of a smooth curve as the curve degenerates to a hyperelliptic curve? "A ribbon" — more precisely "a ribbon on P1 " — may be defined as the answer to this riddle. A ribbon on P1 is a double structure on the projective line. Such ribbons represent a little-studied degeneration of smooth curves that shows promise especially for dealing with questions about the Clifford indices of curves. The theory of ribbons is in some respects remarkably close to that of smooth curves, but ribbons are much easier to construct and work with. In this paper we discuss the classification of ribbons and their maps. In particular, we construct the "holomorphic differentials" — sections of the canonical bundle — of a ribbon, and study properties of the canonical embedding. Aside from the genus, the main invariant of a ribbon is a number we call the "Clifford index", although the definition for it that we give is completely different from the definition for smooth curves.

    ON ULRICH BUNDLES ON PROJECTIVE BUNDLES ANDREAS HOCHENEGGER Abstract. In this article, the existence of Ulrich bundles on projective bundles P(E) → X is discussed. In the case, that the base variety X is a curve or surface, a close relationship between Ulrich bundles on X and those on P(E) is established for specific polarisations. This yields the existence of Ulrich bundles on a wide range of projective bundles over curves and some surfaces. 1. Introduction Given a smooth projective variety X, polarised by a very ample divisor A, let i: X ֒→ PN be the associated closed embedding. A locally free sheaf F on X is called Ulrich bundle (with respect to A) if and only if it satisfies one of the following conditions: • There is a linear resolution of F: ⊕bc ⊕bc−1 ⊕b0 0 → OPN (−c) → OPN (−c + 1) →···→OPN → i∗F → 0, where c is the codimension of X in PN . • The cohomology H•(X, F(−pA)) vanishes for 1 ≤ p ≤ dim(X). • For any finite linear projection π : X → Pdim(X), the locally free sheaf π∗F splits into a direct sum of OPdim(X) . Actually, by [18], these three conditions are equivalent. One guiding question about Ulrich bundles is whether a given variety admits an Ulrich bundle of low rank. The existence of such a locally free sheaf has surprisingly strong implications about the geometry of the variety, see the excellent surveys [6, 14]. Given a projective bundle π : P(E) → X, this article deals with the ques- tion, what is the relation between Ulrich bundles on the base X and those on P(E)? Note that answers to such a question depend much on the choice arXiv:2006.16553v3 [math.AG] 15 Aug 2021 of a very ample divisor.

  • The Cones of Effective Cycles on Projective Bundles Over Curves
    The cones of effective cycles on projective bundles over curves Mihai Fulger 1 Introduction The study of the cones of curves or divisors on complete varieties is a classical subject in Algebraic Geometry (cf. [10], [9], [4]) and it still is an active research topic (cf. [1], [11] or [2]). However, little is known if we pass to higher (co)dimension. In this paper we study this problem in the case of projective bundles over curves and describe the cones of effective cycles in terms of the numerical data appearing in a Harder–Narasimhan filtration. This generalizes to higher codimension results of Miyaoka and others ([15], [3]) for the case of divisors. An application to projective bundles over a smooth base of arbitrary dimension is also given. Given a smooth complex projective variety X of dimension n, consider the real vector spaces The real span of {[Y ] : Y is a subvariety of X of codimension k} N k(X) := . numerical equivalence of cycles We also denote it by Nn−k(X) when we work with dimension instead of codimension. The direct sum n k N(X) := M N (X) k=0 is a graded R-algebra with multiplication induced by the intersection form. i Define the cones Pseff (X) = Pseffn−i(X) as the closures of the cones of effective cycles in i N (X). The elements of Pseffi(X) are usually called pseudoeffective. Dually, we have the nef cones k k Nef (X) := {α ∈ Pseff (X)| α · β ≥ 0 ∀β ∈ Pseffk(X)}. Now let C be a smooth complex projective curve and let E be a locally free sheaf on C of rank n, deg E degree d and slope µ(E) := rankE , or µ for short.

  • Vector Bundles on Projective Space
    Vector Bundles on Projective Space Takumi Murayama December 1, 2013 1 Preliminaries on vector bundles Let X be a (quasi-projective) variety over k. We follow [Sha13, Chap. 6, x1.2]. Definition. A family of vector spaces over X is a morphism of varieties π : E ! X −1 such that for each x 2 X, the fiber Ex := π (x) is isomorphic to a vector space r 0 0 Ak(x).A morphism of a family of vector spaces π : E ! X and π : E ! X is a morphism f : E ! E0 such that the following diagram commutes: f E E0 π π0 X 0 and the map fx : Ex ! Ex is linear over k(x). f is an isomorphism if fx is an isomorphism for all x. A vector bundle is a family of vector spaces that is locally trivial, i.e., for each x 2 X, there exists a neighborhood U 3 x such that there is an isomorphism ': π−1(U) !∼ U × Ar that is an isomorphism of families of vector spaces by the following diagram: −1 ∼ r π (U) ' U × A (1.1) π pr1 U −1 where pr1 denotes the first projection. We call π (U) ! U the restriction of the vector bundle π : E ! X onto U, denoted by EjU . r is locally constant, hence is constant on every irreducible component of X. If it is constant everywhere on X, we call r the rank of the vector bundle. 1 The following lemma tells us how local trivializations of a vector bundle glue together on the entire space X.

  • Canonical Bundle Formulae for a Family of Lc-Trivial Fibrations
    CANONICAL BUNDLE FORMULAE FOR A FAMILY OF LC-TRIVIAL FIBRATIONS Abstract. We give a sufficient condition for divisorial and fiber space adjunc- tion to commute. We generalize the log canonical bundle formula of Fujino and Mori to the relative case. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Preliminaries 2 3. Lc-trivial fibrations 3 4. Proofs 6 References 6 1. Introduction A lc-trivial fibration consists of a (sub-)pair (X; B), and a contraction f : X −! Z, such that KZ + B ∼Q;Z 0, and (X; B) is (sub) lc over the generic point of Z. Lc-trivial fibrations appear naturally in higher dimensional algebraic geometry: the Minimal Model Program and the Abundance Conjecture predict that any log canonical pair (X; B), such that KX + B is pseudo-effective, has a birational model with a naturally defined lc-trivial fibration. Intuitively, one can think of (X; B) as being constructed from the base Z and a general fiber (Xz;Bz). This relation is made more precise by the canonical bundle formula ∗ KX + B ∼Q f (KZ + MZ + BZ ) a result first proven by Kodaira for minimal elliptic surfaces [11, 12], and then gen- eralized by the work of Ambro, Fujino-Mori and Kawamata [1, 2, 6, 10]. Here, BZ measures the singularities of the fibers, while MZ measures, at least conjecturally, the variation in moduli of the general fiber. It is then possible to relate the singu- larities of the total space with those of the base: for example, [5, Proposition 4.16] shows that (X; B) and (Z; MZ + BZ ) are in the same class of singularities.

CURVES OF GENUS 4 AND 5 We begin with two exercises in general genus, and then go back to genus 4. 1.A. EXERCISE. Suppose C is a genus g curve. Show that if C is not hyperelliptic, then the canonical bundle gives a closed immersion C ,! Pg-1. (In the hyperelliptic case, we have already seen that the canonical bundle gives us a double cover of a rational normal curve.) Hint: follow the genus 3 case. Such a curve is called a canonical curve, and this closed immersion is called the canonical embedding of C. 1.B. EXERCISE. Suppose C is a curve of genus g > 1, over a field k that is not algebraically closed. Show that C has a closed point of degree at most 2g - 2 over the base field. (For comparison: if g = 1, it turns out that there is no such bound independent of k!) We next consider nonhyperelliptic curves C of genus 4. Note that deg K = 6 and h0(C; K) = 4, so the canonical map expresses C as a sextic curve in P3. We shall see that all such C are complete intersections of quadric surfaces and cubic surfaces, and con- versely all nonsingular complete intersections of quadrics and cubics are genus 4 non- hyperelliptic curves, canonically embedded.

Let f : X → B be a projective surjective morphism between quasi-projective varieties. The goal of this paper is the study of the Chow groups of X in terms of the Chow groups of B and of the fibres of f. One of the applications concerns quadric bundles. When X and B are smooth projective and when f is a flat quadric fibration, we show that the Chow motive of X is “built” from the motives of varieties of dimension less than the dimension of B. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 14C15, 14C25, 14C05, 14D99 Keywords and Phrases: Algebraic cycles, Chow groups, quadric bun- dles, motives, Chow–K¨unneth decomposition.

  • Formal GAGA for Good Moduli Spaces
    FORMAL GAGA FOR GOOD MODULI SPACES ANTON GERASCHENKO AND DAVID ZUREICK-BROWN Abstract. We prove formal GAGA for good moduli space morphisms under an assumption of “enough vector bundles” (which holds for instance for quotient stacks). This supports the philoso- phy that though they are non-separated, good moduli space morphisms largely behave like proper morphisms. 1. Introduction Good moduli space morphisms are a common generalization of good quotients by linearly re- ductive group schemes [GIT] and coarse moduli spaces of tame Artin stacks [AOV08, Definition 3.1]. Definition ([Alp13, Definition 4.1]). A quasi-compact and quasi-separated morphism of locally Noetherian algebraic stacks φ: X → Y is a good moduli space morphism if • (φ is Stein) the morphism OY → φ∗OX is an isomorphism, and • (φ is cohomologically affine) the functor φ∗ : QCoh(OX ) → QCoh(OY ) is exact. If φ: X → Y is such a morphism, then any morphism from X to an algebraic space factors through φ [Alp13, Theorem 6.6].1 In particular, if there exists a good moduli space morphism φ: X → X where X is an algebraic space, then X is determined up to unique isomorphism. In this case, X is said to be the good moduli space of X . If X = [U/G], this corresponds to X being a good quotient of U by G in the sense of [GIT] (e.g. for a linearly reductive G, [Spec R/G] → Spec RG is a good moduli space). In many respects, good moduli space morphisms behave like proper morphisms. They are uni- versally closed [Alp13, Theorem 4.16(ii)] and weakly separated [ASvdW10, Proposition 2.17], but since points of X can have non-proper stabilizer groups, good moduli space morphisms are gen- erally not separated (e.g.

  • Stability and Extremal Metrics on Toric and Projective Bundles
    STABILITY AND EXTREMAL METRICS ON TORIC AND PROJECTIVE BUNDLES VESTISLAV APOSTOLOV, DAVID M. J. CALDERBANK, PAUL GAUDUCHON, AND CHRISTINA W. TØNNESEN-FRIEDMAN Abstract. This survey on extremal K¨ahlermetrics is a synthesis of several recent works—of G. Sz´ekelyhidi [39, 40], of Ross–Thomas [35, 36], and of our- selves [5, 6, 7]—but embedded in a new framework for studying extremal K¨ahler metrics on toric bundles following Donaldson [13] and Szekelyhidi [40]. These works build on ideas Donaldson, Tian, and many others concerning stability conditions for the existence of extremal K¨ahler metrics. In particular, we study notions of relative slope stability and relative uniform stability and present ex- amples which suggest that these notions are closely related to the existence of extremal K¨ahlermetrics.

    MOTIVIC CLASSES OF SOME CLASSIFYING STACKS DANIEL BERGH Abstract. We prove that the class of the classifying stack B PGLn is the multiplicative inverse of the class of the projective linear group PGLn in the Grothendieck ring of stacks K0(Stackk) for n = 2 and n = 3 under mild conditions on the base field k. In particular, although it is known that the multiplicativity relation {T } = {S} · {PGLn} does not hold for all PGLn- torsors T → S, it holds for the universal PGLn-torsors for said n. Introduction Recall that the Grothendieck ring of varieties over a field k is defined as the free group on isomorphism classes {X} of varieties X subject to the scissors relations {X} = {X \ Z} + {Z} for closed subvarieties Z ⊂ X. We denote this ring by K0(Vark). Its multiplicative structure is induced by {X}·{Y } = {X × Y } for varieties X and Y . A fundamental question regarding K0(Vark) is for which groups G the multi- plicativity relation {T } = {G}·{S} holds for all G-torsors T → S. If G is special, in the sense of Serre and Grothendieck, this relation always holds. However, it was shown by Ekedahl that if G is a non-special connected linear group, then there exists a G-torsor T → S for which {T } 6= {G}·{S} in the ring K0(VarC) and its completion K0(VarC) [12, Theorem 2.2]. One can also construct a Grothendieck ring K (Stack ) for the larger 2-category b 0 k of algebraic stacks. We will recall its precise definition in Section 2.

Here, a variety over K will mean a separated, geometrically integral scheme of finite type over K.A surface is a variety of dimension two. If X is a variety over of dimension n, then ! will denote its canonical class, that is ! =∼ Ωn . K X X X=K For a sheaf F on a scheme X, I will write H• (F) for H• (X; F), unless that leads to ambiguity. Definition 1.1.1. A K3 surface over K is a complete non-singular surface X such that ∼ 1 !X = OX and H (X; OX ) = 0. Corollary 1.1.1. One can observe several simple facts for a K3 surface: ∼ 1.Ω X = TX ; 2 ∼ 0 2.H (OX ) = H (OX ); 3. χ(OX ) = 2 dim Γ(OX ) = 2. 1 Fact 1.1.2. Any smooth complete surface over an algebraically closed field is projective. This fact is an immediate corollary of the Zariski{Goodman theorem which states that for any open affine U in a smooth complete surface X (over an algebraically closed field), the closed subset X nU is connected and of pure codimension one in X, and moreover supports an ample effective divisor.
