2-hereditary algebras and almost Fano weighted surfaces
  Tilting bundles $\mathcal{T}$ on a weighted projective line $\mathbb{X}$ have been intensively studied by representation theorists since they give rise to a derived equivalence between $\mathbb{X}$ and the finite dimensional algebra End $\mathcal{T}$. A classical result states that if End $\mathcal{T}$ is hereditary, then $\mathbb{X}$ is Fano and conversely, for every Fano weighted projective line, there exists a tilting bundle $\mathcal{T}$ with End $\mathcal{T}$ hereditary. In this paper, we examine the question of when a weighted projective surface has a tilting bundle whose endomorphism ring is 2-hereditary in the sense of Herschend-Iyama-Oppermann. It is natural to conjecture that they are the almost Fano weighted surfaces, weighted only on rational curves, and we give evidence to support this.
