Intrinsic construction of moduli spaces via affine grassmannians
Speaker: Andres Fernandes Herrero (Cornell)
Title: Intrinsic construction of moduli spaces via affine grassmannians
Abstract: For a projective variety X, the moduli problem of coherent sheaves on X is naturally parametrized by a geometric object M called an "algebraic stack". In this talk I will explain a GIT-free construction of the moduli space of Gieseker semistable pure sheaves which is intrinsic to the moduli stack M. This approach also yields a Harder-Narasimhan stratification of the unstable locus of the stack. Our main technical tools are the theory of Theta-stability introduced by Halpern-Leistner, and some recent techniques developed by Alper, Halpern-Leistner and Heinloth. In order to apply these results, one needs to prove some monotonicity conditions for a polynomial numerical invariant on the stack. We show monotonicity by defining a higher dimensional analogue of the affine grassmannian for pure sheaves. If time allows, I will also explain some applications of these ideas to some other moduli problems. This talk is based on joint work with Daniel Halpern-Leistner and Trevor Jones.
