    If X is a 0-dimensional subscheme of a smooth quadric \(Q\cong {\mathbb{P}}^ 1\times {\mathbb{P}}^ 1\) we investigate the behaviour of X with respect to the linear systems of divisors of any degree (a,b). This leads to the construction of a matrix of integers which plays the role of a Hilbert function of X; we study numerical properties of this matrix and their connection with the geometry of X. Further we put into relation the graded Betti numbers of a minimal free resolution of X on Q with that matrix, and give a complete description of the arithmetically Cohen- Macaulay 0-dimensional subschemes of Q.
