We define a Deligne-Mumford stack X_{D,r} which depends on a scheme X, an effective Cartier divisor D\subset X, and a positive integer r. Then we show that the Abramovich-Vistoli moduli stack of stable maps into X_{D,r} provides…

In characteristic zero, we construct a canonical, functorial resolution algorithm by weighted blow-ups that strictly preserves the normal crossings (nc) locus, effectively answering Kollar's problem. Operating in full generality, our…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack which is generically a scheme and has quasi-projective coarse moduli. If $\mathcal{X}$ has elementary Abelian 2-group stabilizers and the coarse moduli of the inertia stack is smooth, we…

We generalize some results of Campana-P\u{a}un regarding foliations, slope stability, and positivity of log canonical bundles on smooth projective varieties to the case of smooth proper DM stacks admitting projective coarse moduli spaces.…

We construct a smooth Artin stack parameterizing the stable weighted curves of genus one with twisted fields and prove that it is isomorphic to the blowup stack of the moduli of genus one weighted curves studied by Hu and Li. This leads to…

In this paper, we construct in characteristic zero a derived foliation on derived mapping stacks $\underline{\mathbf{Map}}_S(X,Y)$, for $S$ a base derived stack, $X$ a proper schematic, flat, and local complete intersection derived stack…

In this paper, we look at the problem of modular realisations of derived equivalences, and more generally, the problem of recovering a Deligne-Mumford stack $\mathbb{X}$ and a bundle $\mathcal{T}$ on it, via some moduli problem (on…

In 1984, Charney and Lee defined a category of stable curves and exhibited a rational homology equivalence from its geometric realisation to (the analytification of) the moduli stack of stable curves, also known as the…

We classify the Deligne-Mumford stacks M compactifying the moduli space of smooth $n$-pointed curves of genus one under the condition that the points of M represent Gorenstein curves with distinct markings. This classification uncovers new…

Stack-theoretic blow-ups have proven to be efficient in resolving singularities over fields of characteristic zero. In this article, we move forward towards positive characteristic where new challenges arise. In particular, the dimension of…

In this article, we study the behavior of the stability of pullback of a vector bundle under a finite morphism from a (not necessarily smooth) stacky curve to an orbifold curve. We establish a categorical equivalence between proper formal…

We define two equivalent notions of twisted stable map from a curve to a Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli space, and we prove that twisted stable maps of fixed degree form a complete Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli…

We construct modular compactifications of the universal Jacobian stack over the moduli stack of reduced curves with marked points depending on stability parameters obtained out of fixing a vector bundle on the universal curve. When…

Let X be a smooth and tame stack with finite inertia. We prove that there is a functorial sequence of blow-ups with smooth centers after which the stabilizers of X become abelian. Using this result, we can extend the destackification…

We prove that smooth, separated Deligne--Mumford stacks in mixed characteristic with quasi-projective coarse moduli space are global quotient stacks and satisfy the resolution property. This builds on work of Kresch and Vistoli and of…

The purpose of these notes is to give an introduction to Deligne-Mumford stacks and their moduli spaces, with emphasis on the moduli problem for curves. The paper has 4 sections. In section 1 we discuss the general problem of constructing a…

Following Deligne and Mumford we construct a coarse moduli space of smooth curves with non-abelian level structure, involving higher order commutators. We prove that its Deligne-Mumford compactification is smooth over an open part of…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a tame proper Deligne-Mumford stack of the form $[M/G]$ where $M$ is a scheme and $G$ is an algebraic group. We prove that the stack $\mathcal{K}_{g,n}(\mathcal{X},d)$ of twisted stable maps is a quotient stack and can…
