These notes cover our series of three lectures at Humboldt University in Berlin for the October 2010 conference "Intersection theory on moduli space" (organized by G. Farkas). The topic concerns relations among the kappa classes in the…
We study the singular homology (with field coefficients) of the moduli stack of stable n-pointed complex curves of genus g (the Deligne-Mumford compactification). Each of its irreducible boundary components determines via the…
Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field with at least three elements, and let n, p and r be positive integers with r<=min(n,p). In a recent work, we have proved that an affine subspace of M_{n,p}(K) containing only matrices of rank…
We show that, up to terms of order 1/kappa^5, the kappa-deformed Poincare algebra can be endowed with a triangular quasibialgebra structure. The universal R matrix and coassociator are given explicitly to the first few orders. In the…
Given $d\in \mathbb{N}$, $g\in \mathbb{N} \cup\{0\}$, and an integral vector $\kappa=(k_1,\dots,k_n)$ such that $k_i>-d$ and $k_1+\dots+k_n=d(2g-2)$, let $\Omega^d\mathcal{M}_{g,n}(\kappa)$ denote the moduli space of meromorphic…
We show that the order dimension of the partial order of all finite subsets of $\kappa$ under set inclusion is ${\log}_{2}({\log}_{2}(\kappa))$ whenever $\kappa$ is an infinite cardinal. We also show that the order dimension of any locally…
The space of marked commutative rings on n given generators is a compact metrizable space. We compute the Cantor-Bendixson rank of any member of this space. For instance, the Cantor-Bendixson rank of the free commutative ring on n…
We construct a smooth Deligne-Mumford compactification for the moduli space of curves with an m-tuple of spin structures using line bundles on quasi-stable curves as limiting objects, as opposed to line bundles on stacky curves. For all m,…
We prove that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$, the quasi-order of embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of $\kappa$-sized graphs Borel reduces to the embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of…
Let $\rm{Bun}$ be the moduli stack of rank $2$ bundles with fixed determinant on a smooth proper curve $C$ over a local field $F$. We show how to associate with a Schwartz $\kappa$-density, for $\rm{Re}(\kappa)\ge 1/2$, a smooth function on…
We construct a compactification of the moduli space of Drinfeld modules of rank $r$ and level $N$ as a moduli space of $A$-reciprocal maps. This is closely related to the Satake compactification, but not exactly the same. The construction…
The moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ carries a codimension-$d$ cycle class $\kappa_{d}$. We consider the subspace $\mathcal{K}^{d}_{n}$ of $A^d(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n},\mathbb{Q})$ spanned by pullbacks of $\kappa_d$ via…
Madden has shown that in contrast to the situation with frames, the smallest dense quotient of a $\kappa$-frame need not be Boolean. We characterise these so-called d-reduced $\kappa$-frames as those which may be embedded as a generating…
In this paper we give a construction of algebraic (Artin) stacks endowed with a modular map onto the moduli stack of n-pointed stable curves of genus g, for g greater than 2. These stacks are smooth, irreducible and have dimension 4g-3+n,…
The cohomology of the moduli spaces of stable bundles M(n,d), of coprime rank n and degree d, over a Riemann surface (of genus g > 1) have been intensely studied over the past three decades. We prove in this paper that the Pontryagin ring…
In this paper, we investigate the geometry of moduli space $P_d$ of degree $d$ del Pezzo pair, that is, a del Pezzo surface $X$ of degree $d$ with a curve $C \sim -2K_X$. More precisely, we study compactifications for $P_d$ from both…
The $\kappa$-topologies on the spaces $\mathscr{D}_{L^p}$, $L^p$ and $\mathscr{M}^1$ are defined by a neighbourhood basis consisting of polars of absolutely convex and compact subsets of their (pre-)dual spaces. In many cases it is more…
In arXiv:1503.08402v2 Gelander described a new compactification of the moduli space of finite area hyperbolic surfaces using invariant random subgroups. The goal of this paper is to relate this compactification to the classical augmented…
We argue that the $\kappa$-deformation is related to a factorization of a Lie group, therefore {\em an approproate version of $\kappa$-Poincar\'{e} does exist on the $C^*$-algebraic level}. The explict form of this factorization is computed…
We give lower bounds for the rank of the first homology group of the real points of the Deligne-Mumford-Knudsen compactification of stable n-pointed curves of genus 0,which coincides with the Chow quotient (RP^1)^n//PGL(2,R).The study has…
