The Horrocks-Mumford bundle restricted to planes

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: We study the behavior of the Horrocks-Mumford bundle when restricted to a plane P^2 in P^4, looking for all possible minimal free resolutions for the restricted bundle. To each of the 6 resolutions (4 stable and 2 unstable) we find, we then associate a subvariety of the Grassmannian G(2,4) of planes in P^4. We thus obtain a filtration of the Grassmannian, which we describe in the second part of this work.


The author studies carefully the behaviour of the syzygies (minimal resolutions) of the restrictions to planes of the Horrocks-Mumford bundle on \({\mathbb P}^4\). One finds 6 possible numerical characters (i.e. sets of degrees for the minimal generators), thus obtaining a stratification of the Grassmanian \({\mathbb G}(2,4)\). This stratification is studied in close connection with the phenomenon of jumping lines.
