A genericity theorem for algebraic stacks and essential dimension of hypersurfaces

Zinovy Reichstein, Angelo Vistoli (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We compute the essential dimension of the functors Forms n , d and Hypersurf n , d of equivalence classes of homogeneous polynomials in n variables and hypersurfaces in n 1 , respectively, over any base field k of characteristic 0 . Here two polynomials (or hypersurfaces) over K are considered equivalent if they are related by a linear change of coordinates with coefficients in K . Our proof is based on a new Genericity Theorem for algebraic stacks, which is of independent interest. As another application of the...

ACM bundles on general hypersurfaces in P5 of low degree.

Luca Chiantini, Carlo K. Madonna (2005)

Collectanea Mathematica

In this paper we show that on a general hypersurface of degree r = 3,4,5,6 in P5 a rank 2 vector bundle ε splits if and only if h1ε(n) = h2ε(n) = 0 for all n ∈ Z. Similar results for r = 1,2 were obtained in [15], [16] and [2].
