In attempting to study any moduli space M, one of the basic first steps is to find a good compactification M. Preferably the compactification should have reasonable geometric properties (i.e. smooth with M a divisor with normal crossings), and the space should also have a reasonable moduli interpretation with boundary points corresponding to degenerate objects.

Keywords

  • Modulus Space
  • Line Bundle
  • Elliptic Curf
  • Abelian Variety
  • Group Scheme

These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
