Abstract We use certain special prehomogeneous representations of algebraic groups in order to construct aCM vector bundles, possibly Ulrich, on certain families of hypersurfaces. Among otherExpand
Examples of surfaces which are Ulrich–wild
We give examples of surfaces which are Ulrich-wild, i.e. that support families of dimension $p$ of pairwise non-isomorphic, indecomposable, Ulrich bundles for arbitrary large $p$.
On the existence of Ulrich vector bundles on some irregular surfaces
We establish the existence of rank two Ulrich vector bundles on surfaces that are either of maximal Albanese dimension or with irregularity 1, under many embeddings. In particular we get the firstExpand

Ulrich bundles on surfaces with $q=p_g=0$
We prove that any surface with q=p_g=0 embedded by a sufficiently large linear system admits a rank 2 Ulrich bundle. In particular every Enriques surface admits a rank 2 Ulrich bundle.
