Abstract: A vector bundle has the Bloch-Gieseker property if all its Chern classes are numerically positive. In this paper we show that the non-ample bundle $\Omega ^{p}_{\mathbb{P}_{n}}(p+1)$ has the Bloch-Gieseker property, except for two cases, in which the top Chern classes are trivial and the other Chern classes are positive. Our method is to reduce the problem to showing, e.g. the positivity of the coefficient of $t^{k}$ in the rational function $\frac{(1+t)^{\binom n p} (1+3t)^{\binom {n}{p-2}} \cdots (1+(p-1)t)^{\binom n2}... ...1+2t)^{\binom {n}{p-1}} (1+4t)^{\binom {n}{p-3}} \cdots (1+pt)^{\binom {n}{1}}}$ (for $p$ even).
