Vector bundles on Fano varieties of genus ten

Abstract: In this note we describe a unique linear embedding of a prime Fano 4-fold F of genus 10 into the Grassmannian G(3,6). We use this to construct some moduli spaces of bundles on linear sections of F. In particular the moduli space of bundles with Mukai vector (3,L,3) on a generic polarized K3 surface (S,L) of genus 10 is constructed as a double cover of the projective plane branched over a smooth sextic.

Review text

Let \((F,L)\) be a polarized Fano fourfold of genus \(10\) and index \(2\). The authors prove the existence of a unique embedding of \(F\) into the Grassmannian of \(3\)-planes in \(\mathbb C^6\). The result provides a way to characterize some moduli space of vector bundles over linear sections of \(F\). For instance, the authors prove that the moduli space \(M(3,L,3)\) on a general \(K3\) surface of genus \(10\), with Picard group generated by \(L\), is itself a \(K3\) surface with a polarization of genus \(2\). Thus, the construction provides an example of a Mukai dual pair of \(K3\) surfaces. Similarly, for Fano threefolds \(X\) of genus \(10\), the authors characterize components of some moduli spaces of rank \(3\) vector bundles. As a corollary, the authors find that the Hilbert scheme of conic sections of \(X\) (which are zero loci of sections of a rank \(3\) bundle) is isomorphic to the graph of a Cremona transformation in \(\mathbb P^5\), determined by quadrics passing through a Veronese surface.
