We construct a sequence of modular compactifications of the space of marked trigonal curves by allowing the branch points to coincide to a given extent. Beginning with the standard admissible cover compactification, the sequence first…
In this paper, we study moduli spaces of low dimensional complex Lie superalgebras. We discover a similar pattern for the structure of these moduli spaces as we observed for ordinary Lie algebras, namely, that there is a stratification of…
We show the geometrical structure of the moduli space of positive-weighted trees with $n$ labels $1,\ldots , n$ which realize the same family of positive $(n-1)$-weights and we characterize them as a family of positive multi-weights.
Moduli theory has captured the imagination of algebraic geometers for at least two centuries. Up until the end of the 20th century, moduli spaces were constructed and studied by rigidifying the moduli problem using extrinsic data and…
We classify the total spaces of bundles over the four sphere with fiber a three sphere up to orientation preserving and reversing homotopy equivalence, homeomorphism and diffeomorphism. These total spaces have been of interest to both…
The moduli spaces refered to are topological spaces whose path components parametrize homotopy types. Such objects have been studied in two separate contexts: rational homotopy types, in the work of several authors in the late 1970's; and…
We prove the existence of fine moduli spaces of simple coherent sheaves on families of irreducible curves. Our proof is based on the existence of a universal upper bound of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of such sheaves, which we…
The aim of this paper is to study some modular contractions of the moduli space of stable pointed curves. These new moduli spaces, which are modular compactifications of the moduli space of smooth pointed curves, are related with the…
We develop some aspects of the theory of derivators, pointed derivators, and stable derivators. As a main result, we show that the values of a stable derivator can be canonically endowed with the structure of a triangulated category.…
A covariant functor from the category of mapping tori to a category of AF-algebras is constructed; the functor takes continuous maps between such manifolds to stable homomorphisms between the corresponding AF-algebras. We use this functor…
We show that one can use model categories to construct rational orthogonal calculus. That is, given a continuous functor from vector spaces to based spaces one can construct a tower of approximations to this functor depending only on the…
Given a two-dimensional conformal field theory with a global symmetry, we propose a method to implement an orbifold construction by taking orbits of the modular group. For the case of cyclic symmetries we find that this approach always…
Moduli space of genus zero stable maps to the projective three-space naturally carries a real structure such that the fixed locus is a moduli space for real rational spatial curves with real marked points. The latter is a normal projective…
The modular class of a regular foliation is a cohomological obstruction to the existence of a volume form transverse to the leaves which is invariant under the flow of the vector fields of the foliation. By drawing on the relationship…
In this paper differential operators on various moduli spaces (e.g. of holomorphic vector bundles) are described in a canonical way in terms of the geometry of a certain distinguished completion of an appropriate configuration space.
We construct bases for the spaces of higher order modular forms of all orders and weights. We also provide a cohomological interpretation of these forms.
Given a proper morphism X -> S, we show that a large class of objects in the derived category of X naturally form an Artin stack locally of finite presentation over S. This class includes S-flat coherent sheaves and, more generally,…
This is the third part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural, general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) algebra. In this paper (Part III), we introduce and study…
To any dg-category $T$ (over some base ring $k$), we define a $D^{-}$-stack $\mathcal{M}_{T}$ in the sense of \cite{hagII}, classifying certain $T^{op}$-dg-modules. When $T$ is saturated, $\mathcal{M}_{T}$ classifies compact objects in the…
We examine the moduli space of oriented locally homogeneous manifolds of Type A which have non-degenerate symmetric Ricci tensor both in the setting of manifolds with torsion and also in the torsion free setting where the dimension is at…
