Chern classes of rank two globally generated vector bundles on \(\mathbb P^2\) (Q361759): Difference between revisions

Let \(F\) be a globally generated rank two vector bundle on \(\mathbb{P}^2_k \;(k\) being of characteristic \(0\)) and let \(C\) be the set of all pairs \((c,y)\), where \(c = c_1(F), y = c_2(F)\). It is easy to see that both numbers must be positive. Moreover they are subject to a Cayley-Bacharach condition (see for instance [\textit{P. Griffiths} and \textit{J. Harris}, Ann. Math. (2) 108, 461--505 (1978; Zbl 0423.14001)]). Beside these two restrictions, there are other gaps in the set \(C\). The paper investigates and describes such gaps, giving a complete and detailed list of all admissible pairs.
