We compute the rational homology of the moduli stack $\mathcal{M}$ of objects in the derived category of certain smooth complex projective varieties $X$ including toric varieties, flag varieties, curves, surfaces, and some 3- and 4-folds.…

We study the moduli space of four dimensional ordinary Lie algebras, and their versal deformations. Their classification is well known; our focus in this paper is on the deformations, which yield a picture of how the moduli space is…

We give an explicit description of toric sheaves on the weighted projective plane $\mathbb{P}(a,b,c)$ viewed as a toric Deligne-Mumford stack. The integers $(a,b,c)$ are not necessarily chosen coprime or mutually coprime allowing for gerbe…

We investigate the moduli of genus 10 curves that are endowed with a faithful action of the icosahedral group $\mathcal{A}_5$. We show among other things that this has the structure of a Deligne-Mumford stack whose underlying coarse moduli…

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…

Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank $2$ stable bundles with fixed determinant of degree $1$ on a smooth projective curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 2$. When $C$ is generic, we show that any elliptic curve on $M$ has degree (respect to…

We investigate the arithmetic of algebraic curves on coarse moduli spaces for special linear rank two local systems on surfaces with fixed boundary traces. We prove a structure theorem for morphisms from the affine line into the moduli…

We show how quiver representations and their invariant theory natu- rally arise in the study of some moduli spaces parametrizing bundles dened on an algebraic curve, and how they lead to ne results regarding the geometry of these spaces.

It is a classical fact going back to F. Klein that an elliptic curve $E$ over $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ is defined by a homogeneous polynomial in $3$ variables with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}(j_{E})$, where $j_{E}$ is the $j$-invariant of $E$,…

We show that the common theory of all modules over a tubular algebra (over a recursive algebraically closed field) is decidable. This result supports a long standing conjecture of Mike Prest which says that a finite-dimensional algebra…

The purpose of this paper is to develop the theory of holomorphic gerbes on complex tori in a manner analogous to the classical theory for line bundles. In contrast to past studies on this subject, we do not restrict to the case where these…

The work of the first author on the moment map for representations of quivers included a classification of the possible dimension vectors of simple modules for deformed preprojective algebras. That classification was later used to solve an…

An abelian category of relative pure motives is constructed along the lines of Andr\'e (over a field of characteristic 0). An algebraic stack is shown to possess a motive in this sense. This motive is studied for the moduli stack of…

We study natural D-modules on the moduli stack of elliptic curves over a field of characteristic zero. We use this to produce an algebro-geometric version of the algebra of higher depth mock modular forms, studied from a Conformal Field…

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…

We define the Deligne Mumford orbifold axiomatically by a universal mapping property, show that this universal mapping property is equivalent to an infinitessimal universal mapping property, and use the latter to give an existence proof.

In this article, we derive many properties of \'etale stacks in various contexts, and prove that \'etale stacks may be characterized categorically as those stacks that arise as prolongations of stacks on a site of spaces and local…

In this article, we solve the problem of constructing moduli spaces of semistable principal bundles (and singular versions of them) over smooth projective varieties over algebraically closed ground fields of positive characteristic.

We discuss how the motivic integration will be generalized to wild Deligne-Mumford stacks, that is, stabilizers may have order divisible by the characteristic of the base or residue field. We pose several conjectures on this topic. We also…

Let ${mathcal M}_g^n$ be the moduli space of n-pointed Riemann surfaces of genus g. Denote by ${\bar {\mathcal M}}_g^n$ the Deligne-Mumford compactification of ${mathcal M}_g^n$. In the present paper, we calculate the orbifold and the…
