A splitting criterion for vector bundles on blowing ups of the plane
  Let $f_s: X_s \to {\bf {P}}^2$ be the blowing-up of $s$ distinct points and $E$ a vector bundle on $X_s$. Here we give a cohomological criterio which is equivalent to $E \cong f_s^\ast (A)$ with $A$ a direct sum of line bundles. We also some cohomological characterizations of very particular rank 2 vector bundles on ${\bf {P}}^2$.
