On a conjecture on aCM and Ulrich sheaves on degeneracy loci

Abstract

In this paper we address a conjecture by Kleppe and Mir\'o-Roig stating that suitable twists by line bundles (on the smooth locus) of the exterior powers of the normal sheaf of a standard determinantal locus are arithmetically Cohen--Macaulay, and even Ulrich when the locus is linear determinantal. We do so by providing a very simple locally free resolution of such sheaves obtained through the so-called Weyman's Geometric Method.
