Many moduli spaces are constructed as quotients of group actions; this paper surveys the classical theory, as well as recent progress and applications. We review geometric invariant theory for reductive groups and how it is used to…
For a finite abelian group G in GL(n,k), we describe the coherent component Y_theta of the moduli space M_theta of theta-stable McKay quiver representations. This is a not-necessarily-normal toric variety that admits a projective birational…
Let $M(n,\xi)$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $n\geq 3$ and fixed determinant $\xi$ over a smooth projective algebraic curve $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$ of genus $g\geq 4.$ We use the gonality of the curve and $r$-Hecke…
Let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. Fix a Borel subgroup B of G, with unipotent radical U, and a maximal torus T in B with character group X(T). Let S be a submonoid of X(T) generated by finitely many dominant weights. V. Alexeev…
A moduli space of stable quotients of the rank n trivial sheaf on stable curves is introduced. Over nonsingular curves, the moduli space is Grothendieck's Quot scheme. Over nodal curves, a relative construction is made to keep the torsion…
Let $W$ be a finite-dimensional representation of a reductive algebraic group $G$. The invariant Hilbert scheme $\mathcal{H}$ is a moduli space that classifies the $G$-stable closed subschemes $Z$ of $W$ such that the affine algebra $k[Z]$…
When a reductive group $G$ acts linearly on a complex projective scheme $X$ there is a stratification of $X$ into $G$-invariant locally closed subschemes, with an open stratum $X^{ss}$ formed by the semistable points in the sense of…
Given a moduli problem posed using Geometric Invariant Theory, one can use Non-Reductive Geometric Invariant Theory to quotient unstable HKKN strata and construct 'moduli spaces of unstable objects', extending the usual moduli…
In this paper we introduce a new invariant for the action of a finite group $G$ on a compact complex curve of genus $g$. With the aid of this invariant we achieve the classification of the components of the moduli space of curves with an…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the closed subschemes of moduli spaces corresponding to projective varieties which admit an effective action by a given finite group $G$. To achieve this, we introduce the moduli functor…
The moduli space of k G-instantons on R^4 for a classical gauge group G is known to be given by the Higgs branch of a supersymmetric gauge theory that lives on Dp branes probing D(p + 4) branes in Type II theories. For p = 3, these (3 + 1)…
We construct moduli spaces of complex affine and dilation surfaces. Using ideas of Veech, we show that the the moduli space of affine surfaces with fixed genus and with cone points of fixed complex order is a holomorphic affine bundle over…
We show a few basic results about moduli spaces of semistable modules over Lie algebroids. The first result shows that such moduli spaces exist for relative projective morphisms of noetherian schemes, removing some earlier constraints. The…
We define and study the stack ${\mathcal U}^{ns,a}_{g,g}$ of (possibly singular) projective curves of arithmetic genus g with g smooth marked points forming an ample non-special divisor. We define an explicit closed embedding of a natural…
We study moduli spaces of (possibly non-nodal) curves (C,p_1,\ldots,p_n) of arithmetic genus g with n smooth marked points, equipped with nonzero tangent vectors, such that ${\mathcal O}_C(p_1+\ldots+p_n)$ is ample and $H^1({\mathcal…
The structure of subspaces of a Hilbert space that are invariant under unitary representations of a discrete group is related to a notion of Hilbert modules endowed with inner products taking values in spaces of unbounded operators. A…
Craw and Ishii proved that for a finite abelian group G in SL_3(C) every (projective) relative minimal model of C^3/G is isomorphic to the fine moduli space of \theta-stable G-constellations for some GIT parameter \theta. In this article,…
Let $X$ be a smooth complex elliptic curve and $G$ a connected reductive affine algebraic group defined over $\mathbb C$. Let ${\mathcal M}_X(G)$ denote the moduli space of topologically trivial algebraic $G$--connections on $X$, that is,…
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…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective rational surface, $D\subset X$ an effective anticanonical curve, $\beta$ a curve class on $X$ and $\mathfrak{d}=\sum w_iP_i$ an effective divisor on $D_{\mathrm{sm}}$. We consider the moduli space…
