Consider a Kleinian singularity $ \mathbb{C}^2/\Gamma $, where $ \Gamma $ is a finite subgroup of $ SL_2(\mathbb{C}) $. In this paper, we construct moduli spaces of framed sheaves on a projective Deligne-Mumford stack compactifying the…

In this paper we determine the structure of the Chow ring of the Delaunay-Voronoi compactification $\tilde{\cal A}_3$ of the moduli space of principally polarized abelian threefolds. This compactification was introduced by Namikawa and…

The present paper is the first in a series devoted to the study of asymptotic geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces. We introduce the moduli space of hybrid curves as a new compactification of the moduli space of curves,…

We study the $p$-rank stratification of the moduli space of Prym varieties in characteristic $p > 0$. For arbitrary primes $p$ and $\ell$ with $\ell \not = p$ and integers $g \geq 3$ and $0 \leq f \leq g$, the first theorem generalizes a…

A weighted pointed curve consists of a nodal curve and a sequence of marked smooth points, each assigned a number between zero and one. A subset of the marked points may coincide if the sum of the corresponding weights is no greater than…

We study the ramified Prym map $\mathcal P_{g,r} \longrightarrow \mathcal A_{g-1+\frac r2}^{\delta}$ which assigns to a ramified double cover of a smooth irreducible curve of genus $g$ ramified in $r$ points the Prym variety of the…

We study unramified Galois $\mathbb{Z}_3 \times \mathbb{Z}_3$ coverings of genus 2 curves and the corresponding Prym varieties and Prym maps. In particular, we prove that any such covering can be reconstructed from its Prym variety, that…

For $r \geq 1$ and $\mathbf{n} \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq0}^r\setminus\{\mathbf{0}\}$, we construct a proper complex variety $\overline{2M}_{\mathbf{n}}$. $\overline{2M}_{\mathbf{n}}$ is locally toric, and it is equipped with a forgetful map…

We show how to define and count lattice points in the moduli space $\modm_{g,n}$ of genus g curves with n labeled points. This produces a polynomial with coefficients that include the Euler characteristic of the moduli space, and…

We study the moduli space of M-theories compactified on G_2 manifolds which are asymptotic to a cone over quotients of S^3 x S^3. We show that the moduli space is composed of several components, each of which interpolates smoothly among…

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…

We give a formula for the S_n - equivariant Euler characteristics of the moduli spaces of genus g curves with n marked points

The minimal model program suggests a compactification of the moduli space of hyperplane arrangements which is a moduli space of stable pairs. Here, a stable pair consists of a scheme X which is a degeneration of projective space and a…

We study the Prym map for degree-7 etale cyclic coverings over a curve of genus 2. We extend this map to a proper map on a partial compactification of the moduli space of such coverings, and prove that the Prym map is generically finite…

We discuss the projectivity of the moduli space of semistable vector bundles on a curve of genus $g\geq 2$. This is a classical result from the 1960s, obtained using geometric invariant theory. We outline a modern approach that combines the…

Here we investigate some birational properties of two collections of moduli spaces, namely moduli spaces of (pointed) stable curves and of (pointed) spin curves. In particular, we focus on vanishings of Hodge numbers of type (p,0) and on…

We describe the closure of the strata of abelian differentials with prescribed type of zeros and poles, in the projectivized Hodge bundle over the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of stable curves with marked points. We provide an explicit…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…

We construct new compactifications with good properties of moduli spaces of maps from nonsingular marked curves to a large class of GIT quotients. This generalizes from a unified perspective many particular examples considered earlier in…
