  1. Brill-Noether Theorems play a central role in the birational geometry of moduli spaces of sheaves on surfaces. This paper surveys recent work on the Brill-Noether problem for rational surfaces. In order to highlight some of the difficulties for more general surfaces, we show that moduli spaces of rank 2 sheaves on very general hypersurfaces of degree d in P3 can have arbitrarily many irreducible components as d tends to infinity.

  2. In this paper, we show that the cohomology of a general stable bundle on a Hirzebruch surface is determined by the Euler characteristic provided that the first Chern class satisfies necessary intersection conditions. More generally, we compute the Betti numbers of a general stable bundle. We also show that a general stable bundle on a Hirzebruch surface has a special resolution generalizing the Gaeta resolution on the projective plane. As a consequence of these results, we classify Chern characters such that the general stable bundle is globally generated.
