On the classification of non-big Ulrich vector bundles on fourfolds

Abstract

We give an almost complete classification of non-big Ulrich vector bundles on fourfolds. This allows to classify them in the case of Picard rank one fourfolds, of Mukai fourfolds and in the case of Del Pezzo $n$-folds for $n \le 4$. We also classify Ulrich bundles with non-big determinant on Del Pezzo and Mukai $n$-folds, $n \ge 2$.
