Abstract:

We construct a family of nef divisor classes on every moduli space of stable complexes in the sense of Bridgeland. This divisor class varies naturally with the Bridgeland stability condition. For a generic stability condition on a K3 surface, we prove that this class is ample, thereby generalizing a result of Minamide, Yanagida, and Yoshioka. Our result also gives a systematic explanation of the relation between wall-crossing for Bridgeland-stability and the minimal model program for the moduli space.

We give three applications of our method for classical moduli spaces of sheaves on a K3 surface.

1. We obtain a region in the ample cone in the moduli space of Gieseker-stable sheaves only depending on the lattice of the K3.

2. We determine the nef cone of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on a K3 surface of Picard rank one when $n$ is large compared to the genus.

3. We verify the “Hassett-Tschinkel/Huybrechts/Sawon” conjecture on the existence of a birational Lagrangian fibration for the Hilbert scheme in a new family of cases.
