Questions tagged [moduli-spaces]
Given a concrete category C, with objects denoted Obj(C), and an equivalence relation ~ on Obj(C) given by morphisms in C. The moduli set for Obj(C) is the set of equivalence classes with respect to ~; denoted Iso(C). When Iso(C) is an object in the category Top, then the moduli set is called a moduli space.

Fine moduli space of elliptic curves(level 3). Applications?
Recently I have learned that there is a fine moduli space for elliptic curves $X$ with fixed morphism $\phi: (\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z})^2 \rightarrow X[3]$. In Dolgachev's "Classical Algebraic ...

Do set-theoretical freeness of an additive $\mathbb C^+$ group action + geometric quotient imply properness?
Let $\mathbb G_a=\mathbb C^+$ denote the additive group scheme over $\mathbb C$. Suppose we have an affine complex variety $X$ and a set-theoretically free $\mathbb G_a$ action on $X$ that admits a ...

Yang-Mills theory and... reciprocity laws!
This question is about two papers which I do not understand. Ergo, most probably it does not make any sense.
I am, moreover, no number theorist; -- and, hence, would be very glad if someone more ...

Family of vector bundles over a relative A^1
Let $A=\mathbb{C}[[s]]$, I am looking for an example of a non-trivial vector bundle (or $\operatorname{SL}_n$-torsor) on $\mathbb{P}^{1}_{A[t,t^{-1}]}$ that is trivial over $\mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{C}...

Variants of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces
The moduli space $M_{g,n}$ of genus $g$ Riemann surfaces with $n$ marked points is well-studied and is finite-dimensional. I'm curious about the moduli space $M_{g,\vec{n}}$ of genus $g$ Riemann ...
