Abstract
This paper shows that the general hypersurface of degree ≥ 6 in projective four space cannot support an indecomposable rank two vector bundle which is Arithmetically CohenMacaulay and four generated. Equivalently, the equation of the hypersurface is not the Pfaffian of a four by four minimal skewsymmetric matrix.
