We prove that in a stable range, the rational cohomology of the moduli space of curves with level structures is the same as that of the ordinary moduli space of curves.

We study the intersection theory on the moduli spaces of maps of $n$-pointed curves $f:(C,s_1,... s_n)\to V$ which are stable with respect to a weight data $(a_1,..., a_n)$, $0\le a_i\le 1$. After describing the structure of these moduli…

We define a proper moduli stack for degree $p$ covers $f:Y \to \cX$ where $\cX$ is a twisted stable curve in the sense of [5] and [4], and $Y$ is a stable curve which via $f$ is a torsor over $\cX$ under a finite flat group scheme $\cG \to…

Recall that the moduli space of smooth (that is, stable) cubic curves is isomorphic to the quotient of the upper half plane by the group of fractional linear transformations with integer coefficients. We establish a similar result for…

The primary goal of this paper is to find a homotopy theoretic approximation to moduli spaces of holomorphic maps Riemann surfaces into complex projective space. There is a similar treatment of a partial compactification of these moduli…

Let X be a smooth projective complex curve, and let M be the moduli space of stable Higgs bundles on X (with genus g>1), with rank n and fixed determinant \xi, with n and deg(\xi) coprime. Let X' and \xi' be another such curve and line…

The goal of the present paper is to construct a smooth compactification of the moduli superstack classifying pointed $\mathcal{N} =1$ SUSY (= $\text{SUSY}_1$) curves. This construction is based on the Abramovich-Jarvis-Chiodo…

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…

Let $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,A[n]}$ be the Hassett moduli stack of weighted stable curves, and let $\overline{M}_{g,A[n]}$ be its coarse moduli space. These are compactifications of $\mathcal{M}_{g,n}$ and $M_{g,n}$ respectively, obtained…

For a smooth projective curve $X$ over $\mathbb C_p$ and any reductive group $G$, we show that the moduli stack of $G$-Higgs bundles on $X$ is a twist of the moduli stack of v-topological $G$-bundles on $X_v$ in a canonical way. We explain…

We study moduli spaces of rational weighted stable tropical curves, and their connections with the classical Hassett spaces. Given a vector w of weights, the moduli space of tropical w-stable curves can be given the structure of a balanced…

We introduce the tautological rings of moduli stacks of twisted curves and establish some basic properties.

This work presents a simple proof that the moduli space of complete integral Gorenstein curves with a prescribed symmetric Weierstrass semigroup becomes a weighted projective space, even for fields of positive characteristic, when the…

We construct a moduli space of stable projective pairs with a nontrivial action of a connected reductive group. These stable reductive pairs are higher-dimensional analogs of stable n-pointed curves and generalize to the non-commutative…

The evolute of a curve is the envelope of its normals. In this note we consider a projectively natural discrete analog of this construction: we define projective perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a polygon in the projective plane, and…

We construct certain orbifold compactifications of the moduli stack of pointed stable curves over $\mathbb C$ and study their fundamental groups by means of their quantum representations. This enables to construct interesting K\"ahler…

We compute the (stable) \'etale cohomology of $\mathrm{Hom}_{n}(C, \mathcal{P}(\vec{\lambda}))$, the moduli stack of degree $n$ morphisms from a smooth projective curve $C$ to the weighted projective stack $\mathcal{P}(\vec{\lambda})$, the…

We determine the action of the product of symmetric groups on the cohomology of certain moduli of weighted pointed rational curves. The moduli spaces that we study are of stable rational curves with m+n marked points where the first m…

We prove a formula of log canonical models for moduli space $\bar{M}_{g,n}$ of pointed stable curves which describes all Hassett's moduli spaces of weighted pointed stable curves in a single equation. This is a generalization of the…

Abramovich, Corti and Vistoli have studied modular compactifications of stacks of curves equipped with abelian level structures arising as substacks of the stack of twisted stable maps into the classifying stack of a finite group, provided…
