Strange duality on rational surfaces
  We study Le Potier's strange duality conjecture on a rational surface. We focus on the case involving the moduli space of rank 2 sheaves with trivial first Chern class and second Chern class 2, and the moduli space of 1-dimensional sheaves with determinant $L$ and Euler characteristic 0. We show the conjecture for this case is true under some suitable conditions on $L$, which applies to $L$ ample on any Hirzebruch surface $\Sigma_e:=\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}\oplus\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}(e))$ except for $e=1$. When $e=1$, our result applies to $L=aG+bF$ with $b\geq a+[a/2]$, where $F$ is the fiber class, $G$ is the section class with $G^2=-1$ and $[a/2]$ is the integral part of $a/2$.
