On the stability of tangent bundles on cyclic coverings (1912.05851v1)

Abstract: Let $Y$ be a smooth projective surface defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ with ${\rm Char}\ k\nmid n$, and let $\pi:X\rightarrow Y$ be a $n$-cyclic covering branched along a smooth divisor $B$. We show that under some conditions $\mathscr{T}_X$ is semi-stable with respect to $\pi^*\mathcal {H}$ if the tangent bundle $\mathscr{T}_Y$ is semi-stable with respect to some ample line bundle $\mathcal {H}$ on $Y$.
