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…
Given a graded $E_1$-module over an $E_2$-algebra in spaces, we construct an augmented semi-simplicial space up to higher coherent homotopy over it, called its canonical resolution, whose graded connectivity yields homological stability for…
In this paper, we first show that for an acyclic gentle algebra A, the irreducible components of any moduli space of A-modules are products of projective spaces. Next, we show that the nice geometry of the moduli spaces of modules of an…

In this paper, we redefine the theory of walls and chambers due to Qin developing a new tool to study moduli spaces of stable rank 2 vector bundles on algebraic varieties of higher dimension. We apply it to describe components of some…
Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank 3 parabolic vector bundles over a Riemann surface with several punctures. By the Mehta-Seshadri correspondence, this is the space of rank 3 unitary representations of the fundamental group of the…
Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus at least $3$. We compute the Brauer groups of the moduli spaces of stable parabolic $\text{SL}(r,\mathbb{C})$-connections and stable strongly parabolic $\text{SL}(r,\mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles…
For a stable curve of genus $g\geq 2$ and simple Lie algebra of type A or C, we show that the conformal blocks algebra $\mathcal{A}$ on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_g$ is finitely generated and establish an explicit connection to Schmitt and…
Let $X$ be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least three, defined over the field of real numbers. Let $G$ be a connected reductive affine algebraic group, defined over $\mathbb R$, such that $G$ is nonabelian…
The rational cohomology of the moduli space of rank two, odd degree stable bundles over a curve (of genus g > 1) has been studied intensely in recent years and in particular the invariant subring generated by Newstead's generators alpha,…
It has been observed, by S. Rayan, that the complex projective surfaces that potentially admit non-trivial examples of semistable co-Higgs bundles must be found at the lower end of the Enriques-Kodaira classification. Motivated by this…
We complete the proof of the fact that the moduli space of rank two bundles with trivial determinant embeds into the linear system of divisors on $Pic^{g-1}C$ which are linearly equivalent to $2\Theta$. The embedded tangent space at a…
In the present paper, we study a new kind of anabelian phenomenon concerning the smooth pointed stable curves in positive characteristic. It shows that the topological structures of moduli spaces of curves can be understood from the…
We study the natural K\"ahler metrics on moduli spaces of stable oriented pairs in a very general framework, and we prove a universal formula expressing the K\"ahler class of such a moduli space in terms of characteristic classes of the…
We describe the components of the moduli space of conjugacy classes of commuting pairs and triples of elements in a compact Lie group. This description is in terms of the extended Dynkin diagram of the simply connected cover, together with…

Drawing on the theory of Minimal Model Program singularities for foliations, we define relative canonical and log-canonical singularities for algebraic stacks with finite generic stabilisers. We show that if a point has log-canonical…
We produce a formula for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-Betti numbers of the moduli space $M_r^d$ of stable real Higgs bundles over a real projective curve, with coprime rank $r$ and degree $d$. Our approach relies on the motivic formula for the moduli…
Let $\mathcal C$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve over the complex numbers and let $G$ be a simple simply-connected complex algebraic group. Let $\mathfrak M=\mathfrak M(G,\mathcal C)$ be the moduli space of semistable principal…
In this paper we realize the moduli spaces of cubic fourfolds with specified automorphism groups as arithmetic quotients of complex hyperbolic balls or type IV symmetric domains, and study their compactifications. Our results mainly depend…
