Horrocks correspondence on arithmetically Cohen–Macaulay varieties

Abstract

We describe a vector bundle $ℰ$ on a smooth $n$ -dimensional arithmetically Cohen–Macaulay variety in terms of its cohomological invariants $H_{*}^{i} (ℰ)$ , $1 \leq i \leq n - 1$ , and certain graded modules of “socle elements” built from $ℰ$ . In this way we give a generalization of the Horrocks correspondence. We prove existence theorems, where we construct vector bundles from these invariants, and uniqueness theorems, where we show that these data determine a bundle up to isomorphism. The cases of the quadric hypersurface in $ℙ^{n + 1}$ and the Veronese surface in $ℙ^{5}$ are considered in more detail.
