Spinor sheaves on singular quadrics

Algebraic Geometry 2016-08-19 v4

Abstract

We define reflexive sheaves on a singular quadric Q that generalize the spinor bundles on smooth quadrics, using matrix factorizations of the equation of Q. We study the first properties of these spinor sheaves, give a Horrocks-type criterion, and show that they are semi-stable, and indeed stable in some cases.
