We show that the GIT quotients of suitable loci in the Hilbert and Chow schemes of 4-canonically embedded curves of genus $g\ge 3$ are the moduli space $\bar{M}_g^{\text{ps}}$ of pseudo-stable curves constructed by Schubert in…
We describe three algorithms to determine the stable, semistable, and torus-polystable loci of the GIT quotient of a projective variety by a reductive group. The algorithms are efficient when the group is semisimple. By using an…
This largely expository paper first gives an introduction to Hilbert stability and its use in Gieseker's GIT construction of $\overline{M}_g$. Then I review recent work in this area--variants for unpointed curves that arise in Hassett's log…
Let $D$ be a finitely generated abelian group and $S$ a $D$-graded ring. We introduce a geometric semistability condition for points $x \in \Spec(S)$, characterized by maximal-dimensional orbit cones $\sigma(x)$. This set of geometrically…
We present a new compactification $M(d,n)$ of the moduli space of self-maps of $\mathbb{CP}^1$ of degree $d$ with $n$ markings. It is constructed via GIT from the stable maps moduli space $\ ar M_{0,n}(\mathbb{CP}^1 \times \mathbb{CP}^1,…
Applying Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT), we study the stability of foliations of degree 3 on P^2 with a unique singular point of multiplicity 1, 2, or 3 and Milnor number 13. In particular, we characterize those foliations for…
Let $R$ be a unital ring satisfying the invariant basis number property, that every stably free $R$-module is free, and that the complex of partial bases of every finite rank free module is Cohen--Macaulay. This class of rings includes…
For every $n\geq 3, g\geq 1$ and all large enough $e$ depending on $n,g$, there exist curves of genus $g$, degree $e$ in a general hypersurface of degree $n$ in $\mathbb P^n$, or in $\mathbb P^n$ itself, whose whose normal bundle $N$ is…
Locally stable maps $S^3\to\mathbb{R}^4$ are classified up to homotopy through locally stable maps. The equivalence class of a map $f$ is determined by three invariants: the isotopy class $\sigma(f)$ of its framed singularity link, the…
A bar-joint framework $(G,p)$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is rigid if the only edge-length preserving continuous motions of the vertices arise from isometries of $\mathbb{R}^d$. It is known that, when $(G,p)$ is generic, its rigidity depends only on…
The Stable Reduction Theorem guarantees that any smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve of genus $g \geq 2$ over a discretely valued field admits a unique stable model after a finite field extension. Computing this model is a…
We study compactifications of the moduli space of unordered points in the plane via variation of GIT quotients of their corresponding Hilbert scheme. Our VGIT considers linearizations outside the ample cone and within the movable cone. For…
Numerical simulations of coupled map lattices (CMLs) and other complex model systems show an enormous phenomenological variety that is difficult to classify and understand. It is therefore desirable to establish analytical tools for…
We introduce the problem of GIT stability for syzygy points of canonical curves with a view toward a GIT construction of the canonical model of the moduli space of stable curves. As the first step in this direction, we prove semi-stability…
We prove that for any base scheme $S$, real \'etale motivic (unstable) homotopy theory over $S$ coincides with unstable semialgebraic topology over $S$ (that is, sheaves of spaces on the real spectrum of $S$). Moreover we show that for…
We study the GIT compactifications of pairs formed by a hypersurface and a hyperplane. We provide a general setting to characterize all polarizations which give rise to different GIT quotients. Furthermore, we describe a finite set of…
McDuff and Segal proved that unordered configuration spaces of open manifolds satisfy homological stability: there is a stabilization map $\sigma: C_n(M)\to C_{n+1}(M)$ which is an isomorphism on $H_d(-;\mathbb{Z})$ for $n\gg d$. For a…
We study the dynamics of a quantum system having Hilbert space of finite dimension $d_{\mathrm{H}}$. Instabilities are possible provided that the master equation governing the system's dynamics contain nonlinear terms. Here we consider the…
In this note, we give sufficient conditions for the (semi)stability of a hypersurface $H$ of $\mathbb{P}^N_k$ in terms of its degree $d$, the maximal multiplicity $\delta$ of its singularities, and the dimension $s$ of its singular locus.…
In this paper, I present some sufficient conditions for projective hypersurfaces to be GIT (semi-)stable. These conditions will be presented in terms of dimension and degree of the hypersurfaces, dimension of the singular locus and…
