Motivated by various equivalent versions of the SHGH conjecture for $\mathbb P^2$ blown up at very general points, we propose a similar conjecture for Hirzebruch surfaces. We prove that this conjecture is true for the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb F_e$ blown up at $r\leqslant e+5$ very general points.
Let $π: X_r \rightarrow \mathbb P^2$ be a blow up of $\mathbb P^2$ at $r$ distinct points $p_1,p_2,\dots, p_r$. We study lower bounds for Seshadri constants of ample line bundles on $X_r$. First, we consider the case when the points lie on a curve of degree $d\le 3$, and the case when $r\le 8$. We then assume that the points are very general and show that $\varepsilon(X_r)\geq \frac{1}{2}$ if the Strong SHGH conjecture is true.
We investigate various positivity properties of line bundles on general blow ups of Hirzebruch surfaces motivated by \cite{Han}, where the author has studied general blow ups of $\mathbb{P}^2$. For each of the properties: ampleness, global generation, very ampleness, and $k$-very ampleness, we provide several sufficient numerical conditions.
In this article we compute Seshadri constants of ample line bundles on the blowup of Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_e$ at $r\leqslant e+3$ very general points. Similarly, we compute Seshadri constants on the blowups of certain decomposable ruled surfaces over smooth curves of non-zero genus. We also prove some results related to bounded negativity of blowups of Hirzebruch surfaces and ruled surfaces.
Let $e,r \ge 0$ be integers and let $\mathbb{F}_e : = \mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \oplus \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}(-e))$ denote the Hirzebruch surface with invariant $e$. We compute the Seshadri constants of an ample line bundle at an arbitrary point of the $r$-point blow-up of $\mathbb{F}_e$ when $r \leq e-1$ and at a very general point when $r=e$ or $r=e+1$. We also discuss several conjectures on linear systems of curves on the blow-up of $\mathbb{F}_e$ at $r$ very general points.
In this note, we continue the study of Seshadri constants on blow-ups of Hirzebruch surfaces initiated in arXiv:2312.14555. Now we consider blow-ups of ruled surfaces more generally. We propose a conjecture for classifying all the negative self-intersection curves on the blow-up of a ruled surface at very general points, analogous to the $(-1)$-curves conjecture in $\mathbb{P}^2$. Assuming this conjecture is true, we exhibit an ample line bundle with an irrational Seshadri constant at a very general point on such a surface.
