A remark on some punctual Quot schemes on smooth projective curves

For a locally free sheaf $\mathcal{E}$ on a smooth projective curve, we can define the punctual Quot scheme which parametrizes torsion quotients of $\mathcal{E}$ of length $n$ supported at a fixed point. It is known that the punctual Quot scheme is a normal projective variety with canonical Gorenstein singularities. In this note, we show that the punctual Quot scheme is a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial Fano variety of Picard number one.

Abstract

For a locally free sheaf $\mathcal{E}$ on a smooth projective curve, we can define the punctual Quot scheme which parametrizes torsion quotients of $\mathcal{E}$ of length $n$ supported at a fixed point. It is known that the punctual Quot scheme is a normal projective variety with canonical Gorenstein singularities. In this note, we show that the punctual Quot scheme is a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial Fano variety of Picard number one.
