Generalized twisted cubics on a cubic fourfold as a moduli space of stable objects

Algebraic Geometry 2017-06-02 v3

Abstract

We revisit the work of Lehn-Lehn-Sorger-van Straten on twisted cubic curves in a cubic fourfold not containing a plane in terms of moduli spaces. We show that the blow-up ZZ' along the cubic of the irreducible holomorphic symplectic eightfold ZZ, described by the four authors, is isomorphic to an irreducible component of a moduli space of Gieseker stable torsion sheaves or rank three torsion free sheaves. For a very general such cubic fourfold, we show that ZZ is isomorphic to a connected component of a moduli space of tilt-stable objects in the derived category and to a moduli space of Bridgeland stable objects in the Kuznetsov component. Moreover, the contraction between ZZ' and ZZ is realized as a wall-crossing in tilt-stability. Finally, ZZ is birational to an irreducible component of Gieseker stable aCM bundles of rank six.
