Birational models of moduli spaces of coherent sheaves on the projective plane

Chunyi Li and Xiaolei Zhao

Geometry & Topology 23 (2019) 347–426
Abstract

We study the birational geometry of moduli spaces of semistable sheaves on the projective plane via Bridgeland stability conditions. We show that the entire MMP of their moduli spaces can be run via wall-crossing. Via a description of the walls, we give a numerical description of their movable cones, along with its chamber decomposition corresponding to minimal models. As an application, we show that for primitive vectors, all birational models corresponding to open chambers in the movable cone are smooth and irreducible.

Keywords
