Simplicity and exceptionality of syzygy bundles over \(\mathbb{P}^n\) (Q5964950)

A syzygy bundle \(F\) on \(\mathbb P^n\) is a vector bundle which arises by splitting of a resolution on \(\mathbb P^n\) of the type: \[ 0\rightarrow \mathcal O^{b_{n+1}}(-d_{n+1})\rightarrow\dots\rightarrow\mathcal O^{b_1}(-d_1)\rightarrow\mathcal O^{b_0}(-d_0)\rightarrow 0 \] for integers \(d_0<d_1<\dots<d_{n+1}\). The authors find criteria of simplicity and exceptionality of syzygy bundles. A vector bundle \(F\) is simple if \(\mathrm{Hom}(F,F)=\mathbb C\), and \(F\) is exceptional if it is simple and moreover \(\mathrm{Ext}^i(F,F)=0\) for all \(i>0\). The property of exceptionality is interesting also for its relation with the stability of a vector bundle: a long-standing conjecture says that every exceptional bundle on \(\mathbb P^n\) is stable, see [\textit{J. M. Drezet} and \textit{J. Le Potier}, Ann. Sci. Éc. Norm. Supér. (4) 18, 193--243 (1985; Zbl 0586.14007)] and [\textit{M. C. Brambilla}, Math.
