A Note on the existence of stable vector bundles on Enriques surfaces

Abstract: We prove the non-emptiness of $M_{H,Y}(v)$, the moduli space of Gieseker-semistable sheaves on an unnodal Enriques surface $Y$ with Mukai vector $v$ of positive rank with respect to a generic polarization $H$. This completes the chain of progress initiated by H. Kim in \cite{Kim98}. We also show that the stable locus $M^s_{H,Y}(v)\neq\varnothing$ for $v^2>0$. Finally, we prove irreducibility of $M_{H,Y}(v)$ in case $v^2=0$ and $v$ primitive.
