Let $X$ be a normal, $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial complex projective variety, and let $A$, $B$ be two Weil divisors on $X$. From my understanding, the associated sheaves $\mathcal{O}_X(A)$, $\mathcal{O}_X(B)$ are coherent and reflexive.

Define $$P= \operatorname{\mathbf{Proj}} \bigoplus_{m\geq 0} S^m\text{H}^0(X,\mathcal{O}_X(A)\oplus \mathcal{O}_X(B)).$$

That is, I'm mimicking the construction of a $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundle over $X$, but in this case by construction it is not locally trivial.

Question: Under which conditions (if any), is $P$ a fibration over $X$ with fibers $\mathbb{P}^1$? Do you happen to know some references for such a construction (or something similar)?

I'm aware I could simply consider $a$, $b$ such that $aA$ and $bB$ are Cartier, and then consider $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}_X(aA)\oplus \mathcal{O}_X(bB))$, but it's not the road I'd like to take.

    $\begingroup$ Welcome new contributor. I do not understand this question. Even when $A$ and $B$ are Cartier divisors, even ample Cartier divisors, the scheme $P$ you wrote above is just a projective space, not any kind of bundle over $X$. Did you mean to take the relative Proj over $X$ of the symmetric algebra of the direct sum of $\mathcal{O}_X(A)$ and $\mathcal{O}_X(B)$? $\endgroup$ Sep 21 at 15:23
