In this graduate seminar we study the moduli space of curves from a modern (hence stacky) perspective. Aim of this seminar is to familiarise its participants with properties of algebraic stacks and their precise relation to properties of the objects they parametrise.
Program: Program Moduli of curves seminar
Dates and location: Tuesdays, 10-12 (tentative), in 05-426.
