Oct 18 at 13:48 comment added psl2Z Since for $d=1$ it is $\mathbb{R}^*SO(2)\backslash GL_2(\mathbb{R})/GL_2(\mathbb{Z}) \cong \mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{R}^*O(2)\backslash GL_2(\mathbb{R})/GL_2(\mathbb{Z}) \cong \{\text{Im}(z) \geq 0\}$.
Oct 18 at 13:44 comment added psl2Z Ok. I was first confused and thought that $I$ was the indentity. But $I$ is the complex structure. In the case that $d$ is even, doesn't $I \mapsto -I$ produce the identity on the Teichmüller space and the moduli spaces of complex and of complex/anticomplex structures are thus equal in the case $d$ even? In the case $d$ odd $I \mapsto -I$ produces an involution on the Teichmüller space? For example in case $d = 1$ it gives $\cong \mathbb{C}$ for the moduli space complex structures and $\cong \{\text{Im}(z) \geq 0\}$ for the moduli space of complex/anticomplex structures?
Oct 11 at 21:14 comment added Misha Verbitsky Complex structure on a vector space defines the orientation. Two components are complex structures with the opposite orientation. The correspondence $I \mapsto -I$ identifies these two components when dimension is odd, and produces an involution on the Teichmuller space of complex structures when it is even.

Fixed typo (sorry, didn't get it in the last edit)
Oct 4 at 23:12 comment added psl2Z In particular all moduli spaces for $d \geq 2$ would simply be homeomorphic to $(\mathbb{R},\tau)$ with the trivial topology $\tau$?
Oct 4 at 23:05 comment added psl2Z Thank you for the reference. It looks interesting. What do you mean by "these two components"? The two sheets of the "covering"? And what do you mean by "orientation"? I think if we had real dimensions then $-I$ would induce the opposite orientation if and only if $d$ was odd? Further, then it is not interesting/ useless to study the moduli space for $d \geq 2$ topologically, i.e. only the $1$-dimensional case gives an interesting moduli space?
