The Noether-Lefschetz locus of surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ formed by determinantal surfaces

Abstract: We compute the dimension of certain components of the family of smooth determinantal degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$, and show that each of them is the closure of a component of the Noether-Lefschetz locus $NL(d)$. Our computations exhibit that smooth determinantal surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ of degree 4 form a divisor in $|\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^3}(4)|$ with 5 irreducible components. We will compute the degrees of each of these components: $320,2508,136512,38475$ and $320112$.
