We generalize the construction of a moduli space of semistable pairs parametrizing isomorphism classes of morphisms from a fixed coherent sheaf to any sheaf with fixed Hilbert polynomial under a notion of stability to the case of projective…
We construct a smooth Deligne-Mumford compactification for the moduli space of curves with an m-tuple of spin structures using line bundles on quasi-stable curves as limiting objects, as opposed to line bundles on stacky curves. For all m,…
We characterize all fields of definition for a given coherent sheaf over a projective scheme in terms of projective modules over a finite-dimensional endomorphism algebra. This yields general results on the essential dimension of such…
We prove a weak factorization result on birational maps of Deligne-Mumford stacks, and deduce the following: Let $U \subset X$ be an open embedding of smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks such that $D = X-U$ is a normal crossings divisor, then the…
We show how a quasi-smooth derived enhancement of a Deligne-Mumford stack X naturally endows X with a functorial perfect obstruction theory in the sense of Behrend-Fantechi. This result is then applied to moduli of maps and perfect…
The moduli stack of Deligne-Mumford stable curves of genus g admits a stratification, so that the number of nodes of the curves belonging to one stratum is constant. The irreducible components of the stratum corresponding to curves with…
Hypertoric varieties are determined by hyperplane arrangements. In this paper, we use stacky hyperplane arrangements to define the notion of hypertoric Deligne-Mumford stacks. Their orbifold Chow rings are computed. As an application, some…
This note is but a research announcement, summarizing and explaining results proven and detailed in forthcoming papers. When one studies families of objects over curves, and the objects are parametrized by a Deligne-Mumford stack M, then…
We complete the explicit study of a three-fold divisorial contraction whose exceptional divisor contracts to a point, by treating the case where the point downstairs is a singularity of index $n \ge 2$. We prove that if this singularity is…
Stable quotient spaces provide an alternative to stable maps for compactifying spaces of maps. When the target is projective space and the domain curve has genus 1, these are smooth proper Deligne-Mumford stacks. In this paper we study the…
We present a definition of stable family of foliations and show that the corresponding moduli functor for foliated surfaces is representable by a Deligne-Mumford stack.
We completely characterize the covers of connected orbifold curves which preserve slope stability of vector bundles under the pullback morphism. More precisely, given a cover $f \colon (Y,Q) \longrightarrow (X,P)$ of connected orbifold…
The space of smooth curves admits a beautiful compactification by the moduli space of Deligne-Mumford stable curves. In this paper, we undertake a systematic investigation of alternate modular compactifications of the space of smooth…
We construct a canonical stabilizer reduction $\widetilde{X}$ for any derived $1$-algebraic stack $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$ as a sequence of derived Kirwan blow-ups, under mild natural conditions that include the existence of a good moduli…
We construct full strong exceptional collections of line bundles on smooth toric Fano Deligne-Mumford stacks of Picard number at most two and of any Picard number in dimension two. It is hoped that the approach of this paper will eventually…
Suppose $F\colon \mathcal{D}(X)\to \mathcal{T}$ is an exact functor from the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety $X$ to a triangulated category $\mathcal{T}$. If $F$ possesses left and right adjoints,…
We give a systematic construction of semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of coherent sheaves on quasi-smooth derived algebraic stacks over $\mathbb{C}$, where the summands are subcategories defined by weight conditions, and…
We explicitly describe the KSBA/Hacking compactification of a moduli space of log surfaces of Picard rank 2. The space parametrizes log pairs $(S, D)$ where $S$ is a degeneration of $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$ and $D \subset S$ is a…
Suppose $S$ is a smooth projective surface over an algebraically closed field $k$, $\mathcal{L}=\{L_1,\ldots,L_n\}$ is a full strong exceptional collection of line bundles on $S$. Let $Q$ be the quiver associated to this collection. One…
We give a new description of the data needed to specify a morphism from a scheme to a toric Deligne-Mumford stack. The description is given in terms of a collection of line bundles and sections which satisfy certain conditions. As…
