Coarse moduli spaces of Weierstrass fibrations over the (unparameterized) projective line were constructed by the classical work of [Miranda] using Geometric Invariant Theory. In our paper, we extend this treatment by using results of…
We classify GL(2,R) invariant point markings over components of strata of Abelian differentials. Such point markings exist only when the component is hyperelliptic and arise from marking Weierstrass points or two points exchanged by the…
The dimension of the moduli space of smooth pointed curves with prescribed Weierstrass semigroup at the market point is computed for three families of symmetric semigroups of multiplicity six. We also collect the dimensions of such moduli…
The moduli stack of Deligne-Mumford stable curves of genus g admits a stratification, so that the number of nodes of the curves belonging to one stratum is constant. The irreducible components of the stratum corresponding to curves with…
We prove that the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_g$ of smooth curves of genus $g$ is the union of $g-1$ affine open subsets for every $g$ with $2 \le g \le 5$, as predicted by an intriguing conjecture of Eduard Looijenga.
We construct Weierstrass data for higher genus embedded doubly periodic minimal surfaces and present numerical evidence that the associated period problem can be solved. In the orthogonal ends case, there previously was only one known…
We explicitly compute the moduli space pointed algebraic curves with a given numerical semigroup as Weierstrass semigroup for many cases of genus at most seven and determine the dimension for all semigroups of genus seven.
We extend results on Weierstrass semigroups at ramified points of double covering of curves to any numerical semigroup whose genus is large enough. As an application we strengthen the properties concerning Weierstrass weights in \cited{To}.
Fix a smooth projective curve over a field of characteristic zero and a finite set of punctures. Let G be a connected linear algebraic group. We prove that the moduli of G-bundles with logarithmic connections having fixed residue classes at…
We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…
We show that for $\alpha \in (2/3, 7/10)$, the log canonical model $\bar M_4(\alpha)$ of the pair $(\bar M_4, \alpha \delta)$ is isomorphic to the moduli space $\bar M_4^{hs}$ of h-semistable curves, and that there is a birational morphism…
We study wildly ramified G-Galois covers $\phi:Y \to X$ branched at B (defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p). We show that curves Y of arbitrarily high genus occur for such covers even when G, X, B and the inertia…
We investigate the arithmetic of algebraic curves on coarse moduli spaces for special linear rank two local systems on surfaces with fixed boundary traces. We prove a structure theorem for morphisms from the affine line into the moduli…
We find some equivalences of the derived category of coherent sheaves on a Gorenstein genus one curve that preserve the (semi)-stability of pure dimensional sheaves. Using them we establish new identifications between certain Simpson moduli…
Beilinson-Bernstein localization realizes representations of complex reductive Lie algebras as monodromic $D$-modules on the "basic affine space" $G/N$, a torus bundle over the flag variety. A doubled version of the same space appears as…
We investigate the local properties of Berkovich spaces over Z. Using Weierstrass theorems, we prove that the local rings of those spaces are noetherian, regular in the case of affine spaces and excellent. We also show that the structure…
We study a moduli space AS_g for Artin-Schreier curves of genus g over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p. We study the stratification of AS_g by p-rank into strata AS_{g,s} of Artin-Schreier curves of genus g with p-rank…
Consider a hyperelliptic curve of genus $2$ over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. After extending $K$ we can view it as a marked curve with its $6$ Weierstrass points. We classify the structure of the potentially stable reduction of such…
Let X/S be a hyperelliptic curve of genus g over the spectrum of a discrete valuation ring. Two fundamental numerical invariants are attached to X/S: the valuation of the hyperelliptic discriminant of X/S, and the valuation of the Mumford…
This informal note provides some elementary examples to motivate the local structural results of [1] on the moduli space of genus one stable maps to projective space. The hope is that these examples will be helpful for graduate students to…
