Abstract

A moduli space of sheaves satisfies weak Brill-Noether if the general sheaf in the moduli space has no cohomology. Göttsche and Hirschowitz prove that on P2 every moduli space of Gieseker semistable sheaves of rank at least two and Euler characteristic zero satisfies weak Brill-Noether. In this paper, we give sufficient conditions for weak Brill-Noether to hold on rational surfaces. We completely characterize Chern characters on Hirzebruch surfaces for which weak Brill-Noether holds. We also prove that on a del Pezzo surface of degree at least 4 weak Brill-Noether holds if the first Chern class is nef.
