Wall crossing for K-moduli spaces of plane curves
Abstract
We construct proper good moduli spaces parametrizing K-polystable -Gorenstein smoothable log Fano pairs , where is a Fano variety and is a rational multiple of the anti-canonical divisor. We then establish a wall-crossing framework of these K-moduli spaces as varies. The main application in this paper is the case of plane curves of degree as boundary divisors of . In this case, we show that when the coefficient is small, the K-moduli space of these pairs is isomorphic to the GIT moduli space. We then show that the first wall crossing of these K-moduli spaces are weighted blow-ups of Kirwan type. We also describe all wall crossings for degree 4,5,6, and relate the final K-moduli spaces to Hacking's compactification and the moduli of K3 surfaces.
