Abstract

Let CC be a genus 2 curve and \su\su the moduli space of semi-stable rank 2 vector bundles on CC with trivial determinant. In \cite{bol:wed} we described the parameter space of non stable extension classes (invariant with respect to the hyperelliptic involution) of the canonical sheaf ω\omega of CC with ωC1\omega_C^{-1}. In this paper we study the classifying rational map ϕ:\prExt1(ω,ω1)\pr4\su\pr3\phi: \pr Ext^1(\omega,\omega^{-1})\cong \pr^4 \dashrightarrow \su\cong \pr^3 that sends an extension class on the corresponding rank two vector bundle. Moreover we prove that, if we blow up \pr4\pr^4 along a certain cubic surface SS and \su\su at the point pp corresponding to the bundle \OO\OO\OO \oplus \OO, then the induced morphism ϕ~:BlS\raBlp\su\tilde{\phi}: Bl_S \ra Bl_p\su defines a conic bundle that degenerates on the blow up (at pp) of the Kummer surface naturally contained in \su\su. Furthermore we construct the \pr2\pr^2-bundle that contains the conic bundle and we discuss the stability and deformations of one of its components.
