The Noether-Lefschetz locus of surfaces in \mathbb{P}^3 formed by determinantal surfaces

Abstract: We compute the dimension of the family of determinantal hypersurfaces in

m a t h b b P^{3}

, where the defining matrix has polynomial forms of arbitrary degree as entries. Our computation exhibits that determinantal surfaces in

m a t h b b P^{3}

of degree four form a divisor in

| m a t h c a l O_{m a t h b b P^{3}} (4) |

with 5 irreducible components. We calculate that the degree of each of those components is

320, 2508, 136512, 38475, 320112
