We study the GIT quotients for the diagonal action of the algebraic group $SL_3(\mathbb{C})$ on the $n$-fold product of $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{C})$: in particular we determine a strategy in order to determine the (intersection) Poincar\'{e}…
We describe CompGIT, a SageMath package to describe Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) quotients of projective space by simple groups. The implementation is based on algorithms described by Gallardo--Martinez-Garcia--Moon--Swinarski. In…
Differentials on Riemann surfaces correspond to translation surfaces with conical singularities, and affine transformations acting on them preserve the orders of these singularities. This viewpoint allows the moduli spaces of differentials…
The quantum plane is the non-commutative polynomial algebra in variables $x$ and $y$ with $xy=qyx$. In this paper, we study the module variety of $n$-dimensional modules over the quantum plane, and provide an explicit description of its…
In this note, we investigate some topological properties of probabilistic modular spaces.
This is a survey article prepared for the submission to "Handbook of moduli". The following topics are discussed: (i) Basic facts and examples of resolutions for nilpotent orbit (ii) Q-factorial terminalizations of nilpotent orbit closures…
We give an explicit approach to quotienting affine varieties by linear actions of linear algebraic groups with graded unipotent radical, using results from projective Non-Reductive GIT. Our quotients come with explicit projective…
Moduli spaces of sheaves and Hilbert schemes of points have experienced a recent resurgence in interest in the past several years, due largely to new techniques arising from Bridgeland stability conditions and derived category methods. In…
We present a Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) construction which allows us to construct good projective degenerations of Hilbert schemes of points for simple degenerations. A comparison with the construction of Li and Wu shows that our GIT…
This survey provides an introduction to basic questions and techniques surrounding the topology of the moduli space of stable Higgs bundles on a Riemann surface. Through examples, we demonstrate how the structure of the cohomology ring of…
In this survey we provide an overview of some recent developments in the construction of moduli spaces using stack-theoretic techniques. We will also explain the analogue of Harder-Narasimhan stratifications for general stacks, known as…
Given an algebraic torus action on a normal projective variety with finitely generated total coordinate ring, we study the GIT-equivalence for not necessarily ample linearized divisors, and we provide a combinatorial description of the…
These informal notes are an expanded version of lectures on the moduli space of elliptic curves given at Zhejiang University in July, 2008. Their goal is to introduce and motivate basic concepts and constructions (such as orbifolds and…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of any characteristic, and let $(X,P)$ be an orbifold curve over $k$. We construct the moduli space $\mathrm{M}_{(X,P)}^{\mathrm{ss}}(n, \Delta)$ of $P$-semistable bundles on $(X,P)$ of rank $n$ and…
It is well known that numerical quantities arising from the theory of D-modules are related to invariants of singularities in birational geometry. This paper surveys a deeper relationship between the two areas, where the numerical…
We describe the generic modules in each component of the spaces of representations of certain string algebras. In so doing, we calculate the dimensions of higher self-extension groups for generic modules. This algorithm lends itself for use…
The moduli space $\cM_g$ of nonsingular projective curves of genus $g$ is compactified into the moduli $\bcM_g$ of Deligne-Mumford stable curves of genus $g$. We compactify in a similar way the moduli space of abelian varieties by adding…
We study moduli of semistable twisted sheaves on smooth proper morphisms of algebraic spaces. In the case of a relative curve or surface, we prove results on the structure of these spaces. For curves, they are essentially isomorphic to…
We develop an algebro-geometric formulation for neural networks in machine learning using the moduli space of framed quiver representations. We find natural Hermitian metrics on the universal bundles over the moduli which are compatible…
We discuss various aspects of the geometry of theta characteristics including the birational geometry of the spin moduli space of curves, parametrization of moduli via special K3 surfaces, as well as the relation with classical theta…
