The (n+ 1)cycle A corresponds to the set of finite closed subschemes the support of which has cardinality 1. The (n -1)-cycle B consists of the closed subschemes the support of which is one given point of the surface. Since B is contained in A, indirect methods are needed. The intersection number is A.B = (-1) n-1 n, answering a question by H. Nakajima.

Let k be any algebraically closed field, and denote by M = M(-1,n) the fine moduli space of stable vector 2 2 bundles on JP = JPk of rank 2 with Chern classes c 1 = -1 and c 2 = n. [3, thm 7.17]. If n~O, then M = 0, and if n = 1, M = Speck. In this paper we prove the following Theorem Suppose n.:::,2. Then PicM is generated by two elements and c with one relation nc = 2m. In particular, Pic M = Z if n is odd, and PicM = Z $ Z/2Z if n is even. Remark: m and c a.re defined in § 2. Remark: Le Potier [2] has computed Pic M(O,n) in the case k =G.:, using the technique of monads. The proof goes along the following lines: First we find a decomposition of M into the union of three locally closed subsets, M 0 , M 1 , and ~2 such that M 0 is open and dense in M, the closure of M 1 has codimension 1, and ~2 is closed of codimension 2. We give complete descriptions of M 0 and M 1 , in particular, we compute their Picard groups. It turns out that this, together with the restriction map Pic M -.> Pic M 1 , is sufficient to determine Pic I'1 completely.

Quot(E, ℓ) denotes Grothendieck's quotient scheme that parametrises all surjections E → T , where T is a zero-dimensional sheaf of length ℓ, modulo automorphisms of T . Sending a quotient E → T to the point x∈X ℓ(T x )x in the symmetric product S ℓ (X) defines a morphism π : Quot(E, ℓ) → S ℓ (X) . It is the purpose of this note to prove the following theorem: Theorem 1 -Quot(E, ℓ) is an irreducible scheme of dimension ℓ(r + 1). The fibre of the morphism π : Quot(E, ℓ) → S ℓ (X) over a point x ℓ x x is irreducible of dimension x (rℓ x -1). If r = 1, i.e. if E is a line bundle, then Quot(E, ℓ) is isomorphic to the Hilbert scheme Hilb ℓ (X). For this case, the first assertion of the theorem is due to Fogarty [5], whereas the second assertion was proved by Briançon . For general r ≥ 2, the first assertion of the theorem is a result due to J. Li and D. Gieseker [8], . We give a different proof with a more geometric flavour, generalising a technique from Ellingsrud and Strømme . The second assertion is a new result for r ≥ 2.

Introduction Let X = JP~ denote the projective 3-space over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. Given an integer n, denote by M(n) the moduli space for stable rank-2 vector bundles on X with Chern classes c~ = 0 and c 2 = n, see . In his survey article [~0], M. Schneider asks the following question: Are M(3) and M(4) nonsingular, and do they have only two components? In this paper we answer this question affirmatively for M(3), and we also prove that both components are rational~ Our main tool in the proof will be a careful study of the restriction of a bundle to all lines through a fixed point P in X. By a theorem of Grothendieck [4] any vector bundle on a projective line is a direct sum of lineb~~dles. In particular, if E is a rank-2 bundle on X with c~(E) = o, and LeX is a line, then ~~ <9L(y) $$L(-y) for some integer y = y (L) ~ 0. Following Barth [ 1 ] we say that L is a jumping ~ for E if y(L) I 0. A jumping line L is said to be multiple if y(L) > '1. The well-known theorem of Gra.~rt Mulich [~] states that if E is stable (in this case this is equivalent to H 0 (X,E) = 0), then the general line is not a jumping line. If P E X(k) is a closed point, denote by Mp (n) the open subscheme of M(n) parametrizing bundles E satisfying the following two conditions: There exists a non-jumping line for E through P. (ii) There are no multiple jumping lines for E through P.
