Hodge polynomials and birational types of moduli spaces of coherent systems on elliptic curves
In this paper we consider moduli spaces of coherent systems on an elliptic
curve. We compute their Hodge polynomials and determine their birational types
in some cases. Moreover we prove that certain moduli spaces of coherent systems
are isomorphic. This last result uses the Fourier-Mukai transform of coherent
systems introduced by Hern\'andez Ruiperez and Tejero Prieto.Comment: Minor corrections and improvements in presentation; no changes to

On Poincare bundles of vector bundles on curves
Let denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank and
fixed determinant of degree coprime to on a non-singular projective curve
of genus . Denote by \cU a universal bundle on . We
show that, for , the restrictions \cU|\{x\} \times M and
\cU|\{y\} \times M are stable and non-isomorphic when considered as bundles
on .Comment: 8 page
Higher rank BN-theory for curves of genus 6
Higher rank Brill-Noether theory for genus 6 is especially interesting as,
even in the general case, some unexpected phenomena arise which are absent in
lower genus. Moreover, it is the first case for which there exist curves of
Clifford dimension greater than 1 (smooth plane quintics). In all cases, we
obtain new upper bounds for non-emptiness of Brill-Noether loci and construct
many examples which approach these upper bounds more closely than those that
are well known. Some of our examples of non-empty Brill-Noether loci have
negative Brill-Noether numbers.Comment: Final version to appear in Internat. J. Math.; some typos correcte
Further examples of stable bundles of rank 2 with 4 sections
In this paper we construct new examples of stable bundles of rank 2 of small
degree with 4 sections on a smooth irreducible curve of maximal Clifford index.
The corresponding Brill-Noether loci have negative expected dimension of
arbitrarily large absolute value

Bundles of rank 3 on curves of Clifford index 3
Two definitions of the Clifford index for vector bundles on a smooth
projective curve of genus were introduced in a previous paper by
the authors. In another paper the authors obtained results on one of these
indices for bundles of rank 3. In this paper we extend these results in the
case where has classical Clifford index 3. In particular we prove Mercat's
conjecture for bundles of rank 3 for and when has
classical Clifford index 3. We obtain complete results in the case of genus 7.Comment: Final version. Typos corrected and minor style change
Higher rank BN-thory for curves of genus 5
In this paper, we consider higher rank Brill-Noether theory for smooth curves

Clifford indices for vector bundles on curves
For smooth projective curves the Clifford index is an important invariant
which provides a bound for the dimension of the space of sections of a line
bundle. This is the first step in distinguishing curves of the same genus. In
this paper we generalise this to introduce Clifford indices for semistable
vector bundles on curves. We study these invariants, giving some basic
properties and carrying out some computations for small ranks and for general
and some special curves. For curves whose classical Clifford index is two, we
compute all values of our new Clifford indices.Comment: Final vesrion to appear in: Alexander Schmitt (Ed.) Affine Flag

Higher rank BN-theory for curves of genus 4
Higher rank Brill-Noether theory is completely known for curves of genus
. In this paper, we investigate the theory for curves of genus 4. Some
of our results apply to curves of arbitrary genus.Comment: Final version to appear in Communications in Algebr
Coherent systems of genus 0 II: Existence results for k\ge3
In this paper we continue the investigation of coherent systems of type
(n,d,k) on the projective line which are stable with respect to some value of
the parameter \alpha. We work mainly with k<n and obtain existence results for
arbitrary k in certain cases, together with complete results for k=3. Our
methods involve the use of the "flips" which occur at critical values of the
parameter.Comment: 30 pages; minor presentational change
