Abstract

We study the group of isometries of the Grothendieck group K0(Pn)K_0(\mathbb P_n) equipped with the standard Euler form χ\chi defined by χ(E,F)=ν(1)νdimExtν(E,F)\chi(E, F) = \sum_{\nu}(-1)^\nu\dim Ext^\nu(E, F). We prove several properties of this group, in particular, we show that it is essentially a free abelian group of rank [n+12][\frac{n+1}{2}]. Also, we compute explicitly its generators for n6n\leqslant 6.
