Moduli spaces of curves with A_k-singularities
- Date: 11/30/2009
Lecturer(s):
Jarod Alper (Columbia University)
Location:
University of British Columbia
Description:
I will present work-in-progress on the construction of compactifications of the moduli space of curves with A_k-singularities. These spaces conjecturally give moduli interpretations of certain log canonical models of the moduli space of curves. This is joint work with David Smyth and Fred van der Wyck.
