Abstract: Let X be a smooth variety defined over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and H be a very
ample divisor on X. We show that for a semistable X-bundle E of rank two, there exists an integer m depending
only on Delta(E).Hdim(X)-2 and Hdim(X) such that the restriction of E to a general divisor in the linear
system |mH| is again semistable.
As corollaries we obtain boundedness results, and weak versions of Bogomolov's theorem and Kodaira's vanishing theorem
for surfaces in arbitrary characteristic.
