Stable toric sheaves. I : Chern classes

Abstract

We study rank 2 torus-equivariant torsion-free sheaves on the complex projective space. For reflexive sheaves we derive a simple formula for the Chern polynomial, and in the general torsion-free case we introduce an iterative construction method based on elementary injections, allowing us to prescribe Chern classes. This yields infinite families of explicit examples on $\mathbb{P}^4$ and $\mathbb{P}^5$, and establishes existence on $\mathbb{P}^n$
