An answer for a Mistretta-Stoppino's conjecture

We study the relation between linear stability of generated linear series on smooth curves and slope stability of their associated syzygy bundles. Motivated by conjectures of Mistretta and Stoppino, we establish new cases in which linear stability implies slope stability, focusing first on generated linear series over general curves and then on curves lying on polarized K3 surfaces. In the case of general curves, we use Brill-Noether-theoretic arguments to relate the numerical conditions on the linear series to the semi-stability of the syzygy bundle. For curves on K3 surfaces, we combine Lazarsfeld-Mukai bundles with Bridgeland stability conditions and restriction techniques to obtain slope-stability results under explicit degree bounds. These results provide further evidence for the expected equivalence between linear stability of linear series and slope stability of syzygy bundles.

Linear stability of coherent systems and applications to Butler's conjecture

The notion of linear stability of a variety in projective space was introduced by Mumford in the context of GIT. It has subsequently been applied by Mistretta and others to Butler's conjecture on stability of the dual span bundle (DSB) $M_{V, E}$ of a general generated coherent system $( E, V )$. We survey recent progress in this direction on rank one coherent systems, prove a new result for hyperelliptic curves, and state some open questions. We then extend the definition of linear stability to generated coherent systems of higher rank. We show that various coherent systems with unstable DSB studied by Brambila-Paz, Mata-Gutierrez, Newstead and Ortega are also linearly unstable. We show that linearly stable coherent systems of type $(2, d, 4)$ for low enough $d$ have stable DSB, and use this to prove a particular case of a generalized Butler conjecture. We then exhibit a linearly stable generated coherent system with unstable DSB, confirming that linear stability of $( E, V )$ in general remains weaker than semistability of $M_{V, E}$ in higher rank. We end with a list of open questions on the higher rank case.
