In this work we study the moduli space of instanton bundles on the flag twistor space $F:=F(0,1,2)$. We stratify them in terms of the minimal twist supporting global sections and we introduce the notion of (special) 't Hooft bundle on $F$. In particular we prove that there exist $\mu$-stable 't Hooft bundles for each admissible charge $k$. We completely describe the geometric structure of the moduli space of (special) 't Hooft bundles for arbitrary charge $k$. Along the way to reach these goals, we describe the possible structures of multiple curves supported on some rational curves in $F$ as well as the moduli space of del Pezzo surfaces realized as hyperplane sections of $F$. Finally we investigate the splitting behaviour of 't Hooft bundles when restricted to conics., Comment: 37 pages. Comments are welcome

We study varieties $X \subset P^r$ such that is $N_X^*(k)$ is an Ulrich vector bundle for some integer $k$. We first prove that such an $X$ must be a curve. Then we give several examples of curves with $N_X^*(k)$ an Ulrich vector bundle., Comment: v2: we specified the results that hold in characteristic zero and the ones holding in any characteristic. Thanks to crucial remarks of anonymous referee, we improved Theorem 3(ii) to $g \ge 3$ and we rewrote completely and shortened section 8 by using interpolation techniques

Let $X\subseteq{\mathbb P}^{n+1}$ be an integral hypersurface of degree $d$. We show that each locally Cohen-Macaulay instanton sheaf $\mathcal E$ on $X$ with respect to $\mathcal O_X\otimes\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^{n+1}}(1)$ in the sense of Definition 1.3 in arXiv:2205.04767 [math.AG] yields the existence of Steiner bundles $\mathcal G$ and $\mathcal F$ on $\mathbb P^{n+1}$ of the same rank $r$ and a morphism $\varphi\colon \mathcal G(-1)\to\mathcal F^\vee$ such that the form defining $X$ to the power $\mathrm{rk}(\mathcal E)$ is exactly $\det(\varphi)$. We inspect several examples for low values of $d$, $n$ and $\mathrm{rk}(\mathcal E)$. In particular, we show that the form defining a smooth integral surface in $\mathbb P^3$ is the pfaffian of some skew-symmetric morphism $\varphi\colon \mathcal F(-1)\to\mathcal F^\vee$, where $\mathcal F$ is a suitable Steiner bundle on $\mathbb P^3$ of sufficiently large even rank., Comment: 26 pages; The previous Section 6 is now Section 5. The previous Section 5 has been divided in two sections: Section 6 and Section 7. Final version to appear in the International Journal of Mathematics

A $h$-instanton sheaf on a closed subscheme $X$ of some projective space endowed with an ample and globally generated line bundle $\mathcal{O}_X(h)$ is a coherent sheaf whose cohomology table has a certain prescribed shape. In this paper we deal with $h$-instanton sheaves relating them to Ulrich sheaves. Moreover, we study $h$-instanton sheaves on smooth curves and surfaces, cyclic $n$-folds, Fano $3$-folds and scrolls over arbitrary smooth curves. We also deal with a family of monads associated to $h$-instanton bundles on varieties satisfying some mild extra technical conditions., Comment: 39 pages.

We define non-ordinary instanton bundles on Fano threefolds $X$ extending the notion of (ordinary) instanton bundles. We determine a lower bound for the quantum number of a non-ordinary instanton bundle, i.e. the degree of its second Chern class, showing the existence of such bundles for each admissible value of the quantum number when $i_X\ge 2$ or $i_X=1$, $\mathrm{Pic}(X)$ is cyclic and $X$ is ordinary. In these cases we deal with the component inside the moduli spaces of simple bundles containing the vector bundles we construct and we study their restriction to lines. Finally we give a monadic description of non-ordinary instanton bundles on $\mathbb{P}^3$ and the smooth quadric studying their loci of jumping lines, when of the expected codimension., Comment: 34 pages. Minor changes. The final version will appear in The Asian Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we deal with a particular class of rank two vector bundles (\emph{instanton} bundles) on the Fano threefold of index one $F:=\mathbb{F}_1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$. We show that every instanton bundle on $F$ can be described as the cohomology of a monad whose terms are free sheaves. Furthermore we prove the existence of instanton bundles for any admissible second Chern class and we construct a nice component of the moduli space where they sit. Finally we show that minimal instanton bundles (i.e. with the least possible degree of the second Chern class) are aCM and we describe their moduli space., Comment: 20 pages.

We propose a notion of instanton bundle (called $H$-instanton bundle) on any projective variety of dimension three polarized by a very ample divisor $H$, that naturally generalizes the ones on $\mathbb{P}^3$ and on the flag threefold $F(0,1,2)$. We discuss the cases of Veronese and Fano threefolds. Then we deal with $H$-instanton bundles $\mathcal{E}$ on three-dimensional rational normal scrolls $S(a_0,a_1,a_2)$. We give a monadic description of $H$-instanton bundles and we prove the existence of $\mu$-stable $H$-instanton bundles on $S(a_0,a_1,a_2)$ for any admissible charge $k=c_2(\mathcal{E})H$. Then we deal in more detail with $S(a,a,b)$ and $S(a_0,a_1,a_2)$ with $a_0+a_1>a_2$ and even degree. Finally we describe a nice component of the moduli space of $\mu$-stable bundles whose points represent $H$-instantons., Comment: 28 pages. Comments welcome

We study instanton bundles $E$ on $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$. We construct two different monads which are the analog of the monads for instanton bundles on $\mathbb P^3$ and on the flag threefold $F(0,1,2)$. We characterize the Gieseker semistable cases and we prove the existence of $\mu$-stable instanton bundles generically trivial on the lines for any possible $c_2(E)$. We also study the locus of jumping lines., Comment: 19 pages. Final version in Mathematische Nachrichten

In this work we characterize Ulrich bundles of any rank on polarized rational ruled surfaces over $\mathbb{P}^1$. We show that every Ulrich bundle admits a resolution in terms of line bundles. Conversely, given an injective map between suitable totally decomposed vector bundles, we show that its cokernel is Ulrich if it satisfies a vanishing in cohomology. As a consequence we obtain, once we fix a polarization, the existence of Ulrich bundles for any admissible rank and first Chern class. Moreover we show the existence of stable Ulrich bundles for certain pairs $(\textrm{rk}(E),c_1(E))$ and with respect to a family of polarizations. Finally we construct examples of indecomposable Ulrich bundles for several different polarizations and ranks., Comment: 23 pages. Incorporated Section 5 in the other sections. Added Section 6 on existence and moduli space of Ulrich bundles. Final version in Revista Matematica Complutense
