Lemma 1.1. L e t Y b e a non-singular projectiv e v ariety w ith a v ery am ple inv ertible sheaf 6, (l ) an d let E , (o r, £ 2 ) be a stable (or, sem i-stable, resp.) sheaf Hence E is sem i-stable. N ote th a t if E is semi-stable and if E " is a coherent quotient sheaf of E with PE (m )=P,,(m ), then E" is torsion free. Then the proof of the converse is sim ilar to the above and easier, and hence we omit it.The following notion is originally due to C. S. Seshadri ([18] and [5]). Definition 1.5. S eim i-stable sheaves E ,, E 2 o n a non-singular projective variety are said to be S-equivalent if g r(E 1 ) is isomorphic to gr(E 2 ).Corollary 1.4.1 implies that every semi-stable sheaf is S-equivalent to one which is isomorphic to a direct sum of stable sheaves.Remark 1.6. 1) A stable sheaf E , is S-equivalent to E 2 if and only if E , is isomorphic to E2.') The center of G L(V) acts trivially on P(V, r, W ) . Thus PGL(V)acts on P(V, r, W ) . Though the o(1) may not be PGL(V)-linearized, 0(m) carries a PGL(V)-linearization for some positive integer m.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
