Semistability of Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundles via parabolic structures

Our aim in this article is to produce new examples of semistable Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundles on smooth projective surfaces X using the notion of parabolic vector bundles. In particular, we associate natural parabolic structures to any rank two (dual) Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundle and study the parabolic stability of these parabolic bundles. We also show that the orbifold bundles on Kawamata coverings of X corresponding to the above parabolic bundles are themselves certain (dual) Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundles. This gives semistable Lazarsfeld–Mukai bundles on Kawamata covers of the projective plane and of certain K3 surfaces.
