Abstract: In order to obtain existence criteria for orthogonal instanton bundles on mathbbPn, we provide a bijection between equivalence classes of orthogonal instanton bundles with no global sections and symmetric forms. Using such correspondence we are able to provide explicit examples of orthogonal instanton bundles with no global sections on mathbbPn and prove that every orthogonal instanton bundle with no global sections on mathbbPn and charge cgeq3 has rank rleq(n−1)c. We also prove that when the rank r of the bundles reaches the upper bound, mathcalMmathbbPnmathcalO(c,r), the coarse moduli space of orthogonal instanton bundles with no global sections on mathbbPn, with charge cgeq3 and rank r, is affine, reduced and irreducible. Last, we construct Kronecker modules to determine the splitting type of the bundles in mathcalMmathbbPnmathcalO(c,r), whenever is non-empty.


The paper studies orthogonal instanton bundles with no global sections over \(\mathbb{P}^n(n\geq 3)\). Let \(V^{\vee}:=H^0(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}(1))\). The authors consider the triple \((\mathcal{E},\phi,f)\) with \(\mathcal{E}\) an orthogonal instanton bundle such that \(H^0(\mathcal{E})=0\), \(\phi:\mathcal{E}\xrightarrow{\simeq}\mathcal{E}^{\vee}\) an orthogonal structure and \(f:H_c\xrightarrow{\simeq} H^{n-1}(\mathcal{E}(-n))\). The author proved that there is a 1-1 correspondence between isomorphism classes of \((\mathcal{E},\phi,f)\) and elements \(A\in \bigwedge^2H_c^{\vee}\otimes\bigwedge^2V^{\vee}\) satisfying some conditions. As \(\mathcal{E}\) is an instanton bundle, the Beilinson spectral sequence for it degenerates at \(E_2\) level and we have a monad \[ 0\rightarrow H^1(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^2(1))\otimes \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}(-1)\rightarrow H^1(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^1)\otimes \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}\rightarrow H^1(\mathcal{E}(-1))\otimes \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}(1)\rightarrow 0 \] with \(\mathcal{E}\) as its middle cohomology. Also the boundary maps \[ H^j(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^i)\xrightarrow{\partial}H^{j+1}(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^{i+1}),~~H^k(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^{l})\xrightarrow{\partial}H^{k+1}(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^{l+1}) \] are isomorphisms for \(2\leq i\leq n-1,~1\leq j\leq n-2,~1\leq l\leq n-2,~0\leq k\leq n-1\). Therefore, applying Euler sequences one can get a map \(A\) as the composition of all the maps as follows: \[ H_c\otimes \bigwedge^n V^{\vee}\rightarrow H^{n-1}(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^{n-1})\xrightarrow{\simeq}H^1(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^1)\xrightarrow{i_1}H^1(\mathcal{E}(-1))\otimes V^{\vee}. \] As \(H^1(\mathcal{E}(-1))\cong H^{n-1}(\mathcal{E}(-n))^{\vee}\) by Serre duality and \(\bigwedge^n V^{\vee}\cong V\), we have \(A\in (H_c^{\vee})^{\otimes 2}\otimes (V^{\vee})^{\otimes 2}\). The author showed that \(A\in \bigwedge^2H_c^{\vee}\otimes\bigwedge^2V^{\vee}\) by using the monad associated to \(\mathcal{E}\). The map \(i_1:H^1(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^1)\rightarrow H^1(\mathcal{E}(-1))\otimes V^{\vee}\) is injective as \(H^0(\mathcal{E})=0\). Hence by Riemann-Roch one has \(2c+r=h^1(\mathcal{E}\otimes \Omega_{\mathbb{P}^n}^1)\leq h^1(\mathcal{E}(-1))(n+1)\) where \(r\) and \(c\) are the rank and the charge (i.e \(c=-\chi(\mathcal{E}(-1))\)) respectively of \(\mathcal{E}\). Thus we get an inequality \(r\leq c(n-1)\). Using the correspondence above, the author constructed by GIT the moduli space \(\mathcal{M}\) of the triples \((\mathcal{E},\phi,f)\) and showed that it is affine, smooth and irreducible. At last, the author associated to each \((\mathcal{E},\phi,f)\) a Kronecker module \(\gamma\) and showed that for any line \(L\subset \mathbb{P}^n\), \(\mathcal{E}|_{L}\) is trivial iff \(\gamma (L)\) is an isomorphism viewing \(L\) as an element in \(\bigwedge^2 V\) up to scalars.
