Related papers: Two remarks on the Weierstrass flag
The Semiinfinite Flag Space appeared in the works of B.Feigin and E.Frenkel, and under different disguises was found by V.Drinfeld and G.Lusztig in the early 80-s. Another recent discovery (Beilinson-Drinfeld Grassmannian) turned out to…
Let $d \geq 4$ and let $U_d$ denote the locus of smooth curves in the Hilbert scheme of degree $d$ plane curves. If the members of $U_d$ have genus $g$, let $\mathscr{M}_g$ denote the moduli stack of genus $g$ curves. We show that the…
We consider the cell decomposition of the moduli space of real genus two curves with a marked point on the only real oval. The cells are enumerated by certain graphs with their weights describing the complex structure on a curve. We show…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \geq 3$, and let $G$ be a nontrivial connected reductive affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. Examining the moduli spaces of regularly stable $G$-Higgs bundles and holomorphic…
Let $X$ be a connected, smooth, and projective curve of genus $g$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p >0$. This paper investigates a characteristic-$p$ analogue of a well-known fact concerning flat vector bundles in…
We show that the cohomological Brauer groups of the moduli stacks of stable genus $g$ curves over the integers and an algebraic closure of the rational numbers vanish for any $g\geq 2$. For the $n$ marked version, we show the same vanishing…
In this article we explicitly determine the Weierstrass semigroup at any point and the full automorphism group of a known $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$-maximal curve $\mathcal{X}_3$ having the third largest genus. This curve arises as a Galois…
We show that all GL(2, R)-equivariant point markings over orbit closures of primitive genus two translation surfaces arise from marking pairs of points exchanged by the hyperelliptic involution, Weierstrass points, or the golden points in…
Let $|L_g|$, be the genus $g$ du Val linear system on a Halphen surface $Y$ of index $k$. We prove that the Clifford index $cliff(C)$ is constant on smooth curves $C\in |L_g|$. Let $\gamma(C)$ be the gonality of $C$. When…
We prove that a Bers slice is never algebraic, meaning that its Zariski closure in the character variety has strictly larger dimension. A corollary is that skinning maps are never constant. The proof uses grafting and the theory of complex…
Given integers $g \geq 0$, $n \geq 1$, and a vector $w \in (\mathbb{Q} \cap (0, 1])^n$ such that ${2g - 2 + \sum w_i > 0}$, we study the topology of the moduli space $\Delta_{g, w}$ of $w$-stable tropical curves of genus $g$ with volume 1.…
We show that for each genus there are only finitely many algebraically primitive Teichmueller curves C, such that i) C lies in the hyperelliptic locus and ii) C is generated by an abelian differential with two zeros of order g-1. We prove…
We define quotient stacks of "zip flags". They form towers above the stack of $G$-zips introduced by Moonen, Pink, Wedhorn and Ziegler. We define a stratification on the stack of zip flags, and prove that it is principally pure, under a…
The cherry on top of this stacky paper is the following: for any g>1 we give a finite group G such that the moduli space of connected admissible G-covers of genus g is a smooth, fine moduli space, which is a Galois cover of the moduli space…
We determine de Weierstrass semigroup of a pair of certain rational points on the GK-curves. We use this semigroup to obtain two-point AG codes with better parameters than comparable one-point AG codes arising from these curves. These…
We prove that given any $n$-pointed prestable curve $C$ of genus $g$ with linearly reductive automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(C)$, there exists an ${\rm Aut}(C)$-equivariant miniversal deformation of $C$ over an affine variety $W$. In other…
We prove that the Teichm\"{u}ller space $\mathscr{T}$ of a closed surface of genus $g \ge 2$ cannot be biholomorphic to any domain which is locally strictly convex at some boundary point.
We show that the moduli space of marked branched projective structures of genus g and branching degree n is a complex analytic space. In the case g > 1 we show that this moduli space is of dimension 6 g - 6 + n and we characterize its…
In this article we give a survey of homology computations for moduli spaces $\mathfrak{M}_{g,1}^m$ of Riemann surfaces with genus $g\geqslant 0$, one boundary curve, and $m\geqslant 0$ punctures. While rationally and stably this question…
In this paper, we construct the moduli spaces of filtered $G$-local systems on curves for an arbitrary reductive group $G$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. This provides an algebraic construction for the Betti…
