Algebraic moduli problems, moduli of vector bundles (14D20) Vector bundles on surfaces and higher-dimensional varieties, and their moduli (14J60)

Abstract: By the description due to Mukai and Iliev, a smooth prime Fano threefold X of genus 9 is associated to a surface P(V), ruled over a smooth plane quartic Gamma. We use Kuznetsov's integral functor to study rank-2 stable sheaves on X with odd determinant. For each c_2 geq 7, we prove that a component of their moduli space M_X(2,1,c_2) is birational to a Brill-Noether locus of bundles on Gamma having enough sections when twisted by V. Moreover we prove that M_X(2,1,7) is isomorphic to the blowing-up of the Picard variety Pic^2(Gamma) along the curve parametrizing lines contained in X.

Review text

The authors study rank two vector bundles \(E\) defined on a threefold \(X\) and having the property that \(H^1(E)=0\) and \(E=E^*\otimes \omega_X\). These bundles, which are a generalization of instanton bundles on projective spaces, are called \textit{odd instantons}. In particular, the authors consider components of the moduli spaces of bundles on Fano threefolds \(X\), whose general element is an odd instanton. When \(\mathrm{Pic}(X)\) is generated by \(K_X\), such a component \(M\) has been constructed for bundles with \(c_1=-K_X\) and large \(c_2\). In the paper under review, the authors describe the structure of the component \(M\), when the genus of \(X\) is \(9\). Prime Fano threefolds \(X\) of genus \(9\) are linear sections of a Lagrangian Grassmannian \(S\). Cutting the dual variety \(S^*\) with a plane orthogonal to X, one finds a quartic plane curve \(\Gamma\) and a rank two stable bundle \(V\) on \(\Gamma\) such that \(\mathbb P(V)\) is isomorphic to the Hilbert scheme of conics in \(X\). Moreover, in this situation, \textit{A. Kuznetsov} [Cent. Eur. J. Math. 10, No. 4, 1198--1231 (2012; Zbl 1282.14075)] constructed an integral function between the derived categories of \(X\) and \(\Gamma\). The authors make use of Kuznetsov's function to show that, for \(c_2\geq 8\), the component \(M\) is birational to the Brill-Noether locus of bundles \(F\) on \(\Gamma\) satisfying \(h^0(F\otimes V)\geq c_2-6\). For \(c_2=7\), the authors show that the whole moduli space \(M(-K_X,7)\) is isomorphic to the blow up of \(\mathrm{Pic}(\Gamma)\) along a curve, corresponding to the Hilbert scheme of lines in \(X\).
