The moduli spaces of stable surfaces serve as compactifications of the moduli spaces of canonical models of smooth surfaces in the same way the moduli spaces of stable curves compactify the moduli spaces of smooth curves. However, the…

This paper is largely concerned with constructing coarse moduli spaces for Artin stacks. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the notion of stability on an arbitrary Artin stack and construct a coarse moduli space for the open…

We prove that the homology of the mapping class groups of non-orientable surfaces stabilizes with the genus of the surface. Combining our result with recent work of Madsen and Weiss, we obtain that the classifying space of the stable…

In this paper, we construct round fold maps or stable fold maps with concentric singular value sets introduced by the author on smooth bundles over spheres or bundles over more general manifolds. The class of round fold maps includes…

We introduce a notion of stable spherical variety which includes the spherical varieties under a reductive group $G$ and their flat equivariant degenerations. Given any projective space $\bP$ where $G$ acts linearly, we construct a moduli…

We study $\mu$-stabilizers for groups definable in ACVF in the valued field sort. We prove that $\mathrm{Stab}^\mu(p)$ is an infinite unbounded definable subgroup of $G$ when $p$ is standard and unbounded. In the particular case when $G$ is…

Numerical simulations of coupled map lattices (CMLs) and other complex model systems show an enormous phenomenological variety that is difficult to classify and understand. It is therefore desirable to establish analytical tools for…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a smooth Artin stack with properly stable good moduli space $\pi\colon\mathcal{X} \to X$. The purpose of this paper is to prove that a simple geometric criterion can often characterize when the moduli space $X$ is…

The moduli space of twisted stable maps into the stack $B(\Z/m\Z)^2$ carries a natural $S_n$-action and so its cohomology may be decomposed into irreducible $S_n$-representations. Working over $\Spec \Z[1/m]$ we show that the alternating…

We give an algebraic proof of properness of moduli stacks of gauged maps satisfying a stability conditition introduced by Mundet and Schmitt. The proof combines a git construction of Schmitt, properness for twisted stable maps by…

In this short note, we propose a definition of complete Hurwitz schemes (and stacks) in mixed characteristic. We follow an idea of R. Pandharipande, and define the complete Hurwitz stack as a substack of stable maps of degree d of nodal…

We construct Abel maps for a stable curve $X$. Namely, for each one-parameter deformation of $X$ with regular total space, and every integer $d>0$, we construct by specialization a map $\alpha^d_X$ from the smooth locus of $X^d$ to the…

In this note we give a new, natural construction of a compactification of the stack of smooth r-spin curves, which we call the stack of stable twisted $r$-spin curves. This stack is identified with a special case of a stack of twisted…

Let Hom^N_d be the set of morphisms of degree d from P^N to itself. For f an element of PGL_{N+1}, let phi^f represent the conjugation action f^{-1} phi f. Let M^N_d = Hom_d^N/PGL_{N+1} be the moduli space of degree d morphisms of P^N. A…

We consider stable manifolds of a holomorphic diffeomorphism of a complex manifold. Using a conjugation of the dynamics to a (non-stationary) polynomial normal form, we show that typical stable manifolds are biholomorphic to complex…

By working with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{R}$, one can define two different notions of stability for a sandpile on a graph. We call a sandpile immutable when these notions agree. Our main results give linear-algebraic…

We give a classification of the $p$--local stable homotopy type of $BG$, where $G$ is a finite group, in purely algebraic terms. $BG$ is determined by conjugacy classes of homomorphisms from $p$--groups into $G$. This classification greatly…

We develop several aspects of local and global stability in continuous first order logic. In particular, we study type-definable groups and genericity.

We study stable vector bundles over the modular curve X(p) corresponding to the principal congruence subgroup of the modular group of prime level p which are invariant with respect to its automorphism group.

We give an explicit groupoid presentation of certain stacks of vector bundles on formal neighborhoods of rational curves inside algebraic surfaces. The presentation involves a M\"obius type action of an automorphism group on a space of…
