Stack Structures on Git Quotients Parametrizing Hypersurfaces
نویسنده
چکیده
We suggest to endow Mumford’s GIT quotient scheme with a stack structure, by replacing Proj(−) of the invariant ring with its stack theoretic analogue. We analyse the stacks resulting in this way from classically studied invariant rings, and in particular for binary forms of low degree. Our viewpoint is that the stack structure carries interesting geometric information that is intrinsically present in the invariant ring, but lost when passing to its Proj(−).

Quotients by non-reductive algebraic group actions
Geometric invariant theory (GIT) was developed in the 1960s by Mumford in order to construct quotients of reductive group actions on algebraic varieties and hence to construct and study a number of moduli spaces, including, for example, moduli spaces of bundles over a nonsingular projective curve [26, 28]. Moduli spaces often arise naturally as quotients of varieties by algebraic group actions,...
متن کاملSymplectic implosion and non-reductive quotients
There is a close relationship between Mumford’s geometric invariant theory (GIT) in (complex) algebraic geometry and the process of reduction in symplectic geometry. GIT was developed to construct quotients of algebraic varieties by reductive group actions and thus to construct and study moduli spaces [28, 29]. When a moduli space (or a compactification of a moduli space) over C can be construc...
متن کاملEquations for Chow and Hilbert Quotients
We give explicit equations for the Chow and Hilbert quotients of a projective scheme X by the action of an algebraic torus T in an auxiliary toric variety. As a consequence we provide GIT descriptions of these canonical quotients, and obtain other GIT quotients of X by variation of GIT quotient. We apply these results to find equations for the moduli space M0,n of stable genus zero n-pointed cu...
متن کاملEpipelagic representations and invariant theory
We introduce a new approach to the representation theory of reductive p-adic groups G, based on the Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) of Moy-Prasad quotients. Stable functionals on these quotients are used to give a new construction of supercuspidal representations of G having small positive depth, called epipelagic. With some restrictions on p, we classify the stable and semistable functionals ...
متن کاملNEF DIVISORS ON M0,n FROM GIT
We introduce and study the GIT cone of M0,n, which is generated by the pullbacks of the natural ample line bundles on the GIT quotients (P)//SL(2). As one application, we prove unconditionally that the log canonical models of M0,n with a symmetric boundary divisor coincide with the moduli spaces of weighted curves or with the symmetric GIT quotient, extending the result of Matt Simpson.
