We study Alexeev and Brion's moduli scheme $M_\Gamma$ of affine spherical varieties with weight monoid $\Gamma$ under the assumption that $\Gamma$ is free. We describe the tangent space to $M_\Gamma$ at its `most degenerate point' in terms…
We determine, under a certain assumption, the Alexeev-Brion moduli scheme M_S of affine spherical G-varieties with a prescribed weight monoid S. In [ arXiv:1008.0911 ] we showed that if G is a connected complex reductive group of type A and…
Given a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ and a finitely generated monoid $\Gamma$ of dominant weights of $G$, in 2005 Alexeev and Brion constructed a moduli scheme $\mathrm M_\Gamma$ for multiplicity-free affine $G$-varieties with…
We expand the existing arsenal of methods for exploring the irreducible components of the varieties $Rep(A,\bold d)$ which parametrize the representations with dimension vector $\bold d$ of a finite dimensional algebra $A$. To do so, we…
For a smooth irreducible affine algebraic variety we study a class of gauge modules admitting compatible actions of both the algebra $A$ of functions and the Lie algebra $\mathcal{V}$ of vector fields on the variety. We prove that a gauge…

We prove that the moduli space ${\mathcal A}_{g,\Gamma_0(p)}\otimes \bar {\mathbb F}_p$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g$ with a $\Gamma_0(p)$-level structure in characteristic $p$ has $2^g$ irreducible…
We study the geometry of algebraic monoids. We prove that the group of invertible elements of an irreducible algebraic monoid is an algebraic group, open in the monoid. Moreover, if this group is reductive, then the monoid is affine. We…
We give a combinatorial description of the irreducible components of the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}(X,\beta)$ for a smooth projective toric variety $X$. The result is based on the study of the irreducible components of an…
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…
In this paper, we construct a class of non-weight modules over the affine-Virasoro algebra of type $A_1$ by taking tensor products of a finite number of irreducible modules $M(\lambda, \alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ with irreducible highest weight…
Given partitions $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, the short exact sequences $0\to N_\alpha \to N_\beta \to N_\gamma \to 0$ of nilpotent linear operators of Jordan types $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, respectively, define a constructible subset…
Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

Let G be a complex connected reductive group. I. Losev has shown that a smooth affine spherical G-variety X is uniquely determined by its weight monoid, which is the set of irreducible representations of G that occur in the coordinate ring…
Irreducible nonzero level modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces are studied for non-twisted affine Lie superalgebras. A complete classification is obtained for superalgebras A(m,n)^ and C(n)^. In other cases the classification…
We determine the regular irreducible components of the variety mod(A,d), where A=kQ/I is a string algebra and I is generated by a set of paths of length two. Our case is among the first examples of descriptions of irreducible components,…
This is a survey article on moduli of affine schemes equipped with an action of a reductive group. The emphasis is on examples and applications to the classification of spherical varieties.
We generalize the modular invariance approach to include the half-integral weight modular forms. Accordingly the modular group should be extended to its metaplectic covering group for consistency. We introduce the well-defined half-integral…
In this paper, we classify the finite dimensional irreducible modules for affine BMW algebra over an algebraically closed field with arbitrary characteristic.
