We characterize the existence of an Ulrich vector bundle on a variety $X \subset P^N$ in terms of the existence of a subvariety satisfying some precise conditions. Then we use this fact to prove that a complete intersection of dimension $n…
On any smooth $n$-dimensional variety we give a pretty precise picture of rank $r$ Ulrich vector bundles with numerical dimension at most $\frac{n}{2}+r-1$. Also, we classify non-big Ulrich vector bundles on quadrics and on the Del Pezzo…
Let $S$ be a geometrically ruled surface with invariant $e$ on a curve $C$. We deal with Ulrich line bundles and $\mu$-stable special Ulrich bundles of rank $2$ on $S$ when $e\ge0$, slightly extending a recent result due to M. Aprodu, L.…
We study varieties $X \subseteq \mathbb P^N$ of dimension $n$ such that $T_X(k)$ is an Ulrich vector bundle for some $k \in \mathbb Z$. First we give a sharp bound for $k$ in the case of curves. Then we show that $k \le n+1$ if $2 \le n \le…
We prove the existence of Ulrich bundles on cyclic coverings of $\mathbb{P}^n$ of arbitrary degree $d$. Given a relatively Ulrich bundle on a complete intersection subvariety, we construct a relatively Ulrich bundle on the ambient variety.…
We study geometrical properties of an Ulrich vector bundle $E$ of rank $r$ on a smooth $n$-dimensional variety $X \subseteq \mathbb P^N$. We characterize ampleness of $E$ and of $\det E$ in terms of the restriction to lines contained in…
Let $S$ be a surface with $p_g(S)=q(S)=0$ and endowed with a very ample line bundle $\mathcal O_S(h)$ such that $h^1\big(S,\mathcal O_S(h)\big)=0$. We show that $S$ supports special (often stable) Ulrich bundles of rank $2$, extending a…
Let $S$ be a surface with $p_g(S)=0$, $q(S)=1$ and endowed with a very ample line bundle $\mathcal O_S(h)$ such that $h^1\big(S,\mathcal O_S(h)\big)=0$. We show that such an $S$ supports families of dimension $p$ of pairwise non-isomorphic,…
We study the positivity of the first Chern class of a rank r Ulrich vector bundle E on a smooth n-dimensional variety $X \subseteq \mathbb P^N$. We prove that $c_1(E)$ is very positive on every subvariety not contained in the union of lines…
We investigate the existence of Ulrich vector bundles on suitable $3$-fold scrolls $X_e$ over Hirzebruch surfaces $\mathbb{F}_e$, for any integer $e \geqslant 0$, which arise as tautological embeddings of projectivization of very-ample…
In this article, the existence of Ulrich bundles on projective bundles $\mathbb P(E) \to X$ is discussed. In the case, that the base variety $X$ is a curve or surface, a close relationship between Ulrich bundles on $X$ and those on $\mathbb…
We generalize the results by Eisenbud and Schreyer about Ulrich bundles over Veronese varieties to Segre-Veronese varieties. We discuss the range where we have natural cohomology and we construct multigraded resolutions and monads for…
In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Ulrich bundles on cubic fourfold $X$ of given rank $r$. As consequences, we show that for every integer $r\ge 2$ there exists a family of indecomposable rank…
We assume that $\mathcal{E}$ is a rank $r$ Ulrich bundle for $(P^n, \mathcal{O}(d))$. The main result of this paper is that $\mathcal{E}(i)\otimes \Omega^{j}(j)$ has natural cohomology for any integers $i \in \mathbb{Z}$ and $0 \leq j \leq…
This paper investigates Ulrich bundles on decomposable threefold scrolls X over the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb F_a$, for any integer $a \geq 0$, focusing on the study of their structure and classification. We prove existence of such Ulrich…
In this article, we prove that any smooth projective variety $X$ which is a double cover of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) admits an Ulrich bundle. When $n=2$, we show that on any such $X$, there is an Ulrich bundle of rank…
Let X be a smooth projective variety carrying an Ulrich bundle. In the first part of this note, we construct an Ulrich sheaf on n-th symmetric power of X, which is a singular variety when $DimX >1$. As a consequence, we get the existence of…
In this paper, we study Ulrich bundles on smooth toric threefolds with Picard number$~2$, namely $\mathbb P(\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^{2}}(a_0) \oplus \mathcal O_{\mathbb P^{2}}(a_1))$. We construct resolutions and monads for Ulrich bundles of…
Fixed a polarised variety $X$, we can ask if it admits Ulrich bundles and, in case, what is their minimal possible rank. In this thesis, after recalling general properties of Ulrich sheaves, we show that any finite covering of…
In this work we characterize Ulrich bundles of any rank on polarized rational ruled surfaces over $\mathbb{P}^1$. We show that every Ulrich bundle admits a resolution in terms of line bundles. Conversely, given an injective map between…
