Abstract: Supersymmetric heterotic string models, built from a Calabi-Yau threefold X endowed with a stable vector bundle V, usually lead to an anomaly mismatch between c2(V) and c2(X); this leads to the question whether the difference can be realized by a further bundle in the hidden sector. In math.AG/0604597 a conjecture is stated which gives sufficient conditions on cohomology classes on X to be realized as the Chern classes of a stable reflexive sheaf V; a weak version of this conjecture predicts the existence of such a V if c2(V) is of a certain form. In this note we prove that on elliptically fibered X infinitely many cohomology classes exist which are of this form and for each of them a stable SU(n) vector bundle with c=c2(V) exists.
