COHERENT SYSTEMS OF GENUS 0 III: COMPUTATION OF FLIPS FOR k = 1
Abstract
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 a parameter α. We consider the case k = 1 and study the variation of the moduli spaces with α. We determine inductively the first and last moduli spaces and the flip loci, and give an explicit description for ranks 2 and 3. We also determine the Hodge polynomials explicitly for ranks 2 and 3 and in certain cases for arbitrary rank.
