Big and Nef Tautological Vector Bundles over the Hilbert Scheme of Points

Abstract

We study tautological vector bundles over the Hilbert scheme of points on surfaces. For each 𝛫-trivial surface, we write down a simple criterion ensuring that the tautological bundles are big and nef, and illustrate it by examples. In the 𝛫3 case, we extend recent constructions and results of Bini, Boissière, and Flamini from the Hilbert scheme of 2 and 3 points to an arbitrary number of points. Among the 𝛫-trivial surfaces, the case of Enriques surfaces is the most involved. Our techniques apply to other smooth projective surfaces, including blowups of 𝛫3s and minimal surfaces of general type, as well as to the punctual Quot schemes of curves.
