What is $M_g$ over a finite field, really?

Let $M_{g} \to \mathbb{Z}$ be the coarse moduli scheme of non-singular genus g curves over $\mathbb{Z}$. That is, suppose that $M_{g}$ co-represents the functor $M^{\sharp}_{g} : \text{Sch} \to \text{...

Good quotients and coarse moduli spaces

I started study the moduli space theory, by Newstead's book ''Lectures on moduli problems and orbit spaces". Theorem 3.21 says that given a variety $X$ and a line bundle $L$ over $X$, then for any L-...

Is the moduli space of genus three smooth quartics affine?

Non-hyperelliptic curves of genus three are smooth quartics. Is the moduli space of such curves affine? I think this follows from a more general result on smooth complete intersections, but I'm ...

When does a "universal" quot scheme exist?

Suppose $M$ is a moduli space of semistable sheaves on a projective variety $X$. Let $v$ be some the discrete invariants. I would like to form a space $\mathcal Q(v) \rightarrow M$, where the fiber ...

Points of moduli space of semistable sheaves and S-equivalence classes

Let $X$ be smooth projective and connected curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. One knows the description of $k$-valued points of the moduli space $M_X$ of semistable vector bundles of fixed ...

Stack of vector bundles (on a curve) over a strictly semi-stable point of the moduli space

Consider the stack $Bun_{r,d}^{ss}$ of rank $r$ semi-stable vector bundle of degree $d$ over a fixed curve. There exists also a coarse moduli space $M$ built via GIT. Over the stable locus of $M$ it ...

Does the Albanese map satisfy Torelli's theorem

Let $M_h$ be the moduli space of canonically polarized varieties with Hilbert polynomial $h$. Let $M_h \to A_g$ be the Albanese map, with $g$ an integer which depends on $h$ and $A_g$ the moduli space ...

Interesting stacks with affine space as coarse moduli

I am looking for examples of Deligne-Mumford stacks whose coarse moduli space is $\mathbb{A}^n$ or at least an open subscheme of $\mathbb{A}^n$ whose complement has codimension $2$. (Thus the whole ...

Are these moduli problems of curves "well-behaved"?

Let X be a smooth projective surface over $\mathbb C$, and let $d\geq 3$ be an integer. Suppose that all smooth hypersurfaces of degree $d$ are of genus $g\geq 2$. Let $H_{X,d}$ be the Hilbert scheme ...

I do not know much about moduli of sheaves and I wanted to shows that for a smooth (projective) family over a discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristics (relative dimension 3), the locally free ...

Local description of the universal family $\pi: \overline{\mathbf{U}}_{0,n} \longrightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{0,n}$

I would like to get an understanding of the notion of geometric fibers of the universal family: $$\pi: \overline{\mathbf{U}}_{0,n} \longrightarrow \overline{\mathbf{M}}_{0,n}.$$ In fact Knudsen show ...

Mumford's claim on the quasi-projectiveness of the coarse moduli of ppav over $\mathbb{Z}$

In paragraph 3 of chapter 7 of Mumford's Geometric Invariant Theory, the author proves that the coarse moduli space $A_{g,d,n}$ of abelian varieties of dimension $g$, with a degree $d^2$ polarization ...

Definition of Hitchin map

This may be a dumb question. $\mathcal{M}(r,d)$ is a coarse moduli scheme for semistable pairs $(E,\phi:E \rightarrow K_X \otimes E)$ of rank $r$, degree $d$ on a smooth projective curve $X$ over $\...
