In this paper we continue the investigation of coherent systems of type $(n,d,k)$ on the projective line which are stable with respect to some value of a parameter $\alpha$. We consider the case $k=1$ and study the variation of the moduli…

We establish a method for calculating the Poincar\'e series of moduli spaces constructed as quotients of smooth varieties by suitable non-reductive group actions; examples of such moduli spaces include moduli spaces of unstable vector or…

For $n\geq 3$, let $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$ denote the moduli space of genus 0 curves with $n$ marked points, and $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ its smooth compactification. A theorem due to Ginzburg, Kapranov and Getzler states that the inverse…

We present the program Boundary, whose source files are available at http://people.sissa.it/~maggiolo/boundary/. Given two natural numbers g and n satisfying 2g+n-2>0, the program generates all genus g stable graphs with n unordered marked…

Let G be a linear algebraic group, P be a parabolic subgroup of G and \beta be a cycle of dimension 1 in the Chow group of the quotient G/P. Using geometric arguments and Borel's fixed point theorem, we prove that the moduli space…

Let S=K[X_1,...,X_n] be the polynomial ring over a field K. For bounded below Z^n-graded S-modules M and N we show that if Tor^S_p(M,N) is nonzero, then for every i between 0 and p, the dimension of the K-vector space Tor^S_i(M,N) is at…

Abstract. Let G be a complex reductive group and A be an Abelian variety of dimension d over $\mathbb{C}$. We determine the Poincar\'e polynomials and also the mixed Hodge polynomials of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{A}^{H}(G)$ of G-Higgs…
