Introduction Derived category K3 categories Motivations Vector bundles are classified by using numerical invariants, like the rank or the degree. Theorem (Grothendieck) Over P 1 C vector bundles are direct sums of line bundles. Consider vector bundles with some fixed numerical invariants as points of an algebraic space. Problem Is there a moduli space parametrizing vector bundles on X with fixed numerical invariants having the structure of a smooth projective variety? A notion of stability is required!
